One-Piece OIB Design
The OIB Series uses a one-piece body configuration for compact installation in instrumentation and fluid-control systems.
The straight-pattern version provides a direct 2-way flow path and manual quarter-turn operation for applications requiring straightforward on/off isolation.
Female NPT Connections
This configuration is available with Female NPT connections at both ends in sizes from 1/8 in. to 1/2 in.
Available orifice size and flow coefficient vary with the selected connection size and valve configuration. The required size and operating conditions should therefore be specified when selecting the valve.
Pressure and Temperature
Maximum working pressure is up to 3000 psig (207 bar), with a working temperature range from -65°F to 300°F (-54°C to 148°C).
Applicable working pressure may vary with connection size, orifice, operating temperature, and service conditions. Final selection should be based on the actual system requirements.
Typical Applications
OIB instrumentation ball valves are suitable for manual isolation in instrumentation and fluid-control systems, including process instrumentation, analytical and test systems, sampling lines, and equipment fluid lines.
Application suitability should be confirmed according to operating pressure, temperature, process fluid, connection size, and material compatibility.
Selecting the Right Configuration
When specifying a Female NPT OIB ball valve, provide the required connection size together with operating pressure, temperature, process fluid, and quantity.
For applications requiring a different connection type or flow configuration, provide the system interface and flow-path requirements so the appropriate OIB configuration can be confirmed.
