The VBN series includes both 2-way (VBN2) and 3-way (VBN3) control ball valves. They are characterized by a parabolic flow insert that allows for precise, globe-valve-like control with the efficiency of a ball valve.
Key Features
Actuator Options: The valves can be paired with MVN Series actuators (the smaller grey units with red dials) or larger MS Series spring-return actuators (the larger unit on the left).
Mounting: The MVN actuators feature a "click-on" installation that requires no tools, allowing for easy field mounting in any of four orientations.
Manual Override: Most models include a manual operating handle or dial to control the valve during installation or power failures.
Construction: Typically made of forged brass with nickel-chrome plated brass or stainless steel balls and stems.
Specifications:
Valve Sizes: Range from 1/2-inch to 3-inch NPT.
Flow Capacity (Cv): Available in a wide range, from 0.33 up to 266.
Medium: Suitable for water and glycol solutions (up to 50%).
