Features
- Body Material: Ductile Iron.
- Nominal Pressure 250 psi., Test Pressure: 500 psi.
- O-ring sealed flanges at the bonnet ground line and shoe simplify maintenance by eliminating gasket adhesion at these points, making disassembly easier. The O-rings are easier than flat gaskets to position during reassembly, and provide superior pressure handling.
- Hold-down nut – features integral weather seal. Prevents unauthorized removal of hold-down nut or operating nut. Resilient wiper seal prevents water entry and protects from freezing; material resistant to sunlight deterioration. O-ring provides second-level seal.
- Safety flange – breaks cleanly to help prevent barrel damage, but strong enough to withstand normal handling. Allows economical repair, adding of extension section, rotation or changing of upper barrel without excavation.
- Full flow openings – large, smooth radius hose and pumper openings reduce friction loss.
