Worcester F44 Anti-Static Firesafe 3-Piece Ball Valve

Valves Flowserve

The F44 Anti-Static Firesafe 3-Piece Ball Valve is a fire-safe variant of the renowned Flowserve Worcester three-piece range of ball valves. It has been fire-tested in accordance with ISO 10497 and features graphite gland and body seals, 8 high tensile body connector screws for strength in fire conditions, and an integral location spigot machined on the body connector to ensure correct alignment of the fire lip to the ball in a fire.

The design of the valve is such that graphite contamination of the media is now a thing of the past. Further benefits of this product include a mounting platform on the body for ease of ancillary mounting whilst retaining valve integrity, the three-piece valve’s inherent ease of maintenance and its compact and lightweight design. The F44 Anti-Static Firesafe 3-Piece Ball Valve is available in sizes 8-50mm in a range of materials and with a variety of end connections.
