Stainless steel two-piece ball valve with locking handle

Apollo

Apollo 7610827 2" FNPT Stainless Steel Ball Valve

SKU CH-MEA3-F42AC MPN 7610827

A manual two-way ball valve with 316 stainless steel ball, straight body, and locking handle rated to 1,500 psi water and 150 psi steam

  • TypeDrain Components
  • Manual two-way control for steam and water systems
  • 316 stainless steel ball resists corrosion in harsh media
  • Locking handle prevents accidental operation during service
  • Rated to 1,500 psi for high-pressure water lines
  • Vacuum service rated to 29 in Hg for negative-pressure applications

Valve Body and Media Compatibility

The Apollo 7610827 is a manual two-way ball valve with a stainless steel body rated for steam and water service. Its straight, two-piece construction uses a standard-port 316 stainless steel ball for flow control in industrial piping.

Sustained Pressure and Vacuum Performance

Under continuous operation the valve handles 1,500 psi working pressure and 150 psi steam pressure while maintaining a 29 in Hg vacuum rating. The locking handle secures position during extended duty cycles without relief-valve chatter.

Installation Notes and Common Issues

The 2 inch FNPT threads allow direct inline assembly with standard pipe fittings. Leaks typically appear when thread sealant is omitted or when the valve is forced past its pressure limits during system testing.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the Apollo 7610827 generate when steam flows through it continuously at 150 psi?

The valve body is stainless steel and the ball is 316 stainless steel; it conducts the media temperature rather than generating its own heat, so surface temperature will match the steam temperature at 150 psi.

What pipe fittings must I already have to install this 2 in FNPT ball valve?

You need mating 2 in FNPT threaded pipe ends on both sides of the line to thread directly onto the valve connections.

Will the 7610827 seal reliably against a legacy steel pipe system that has seen vacuum service down to 29 in Hg?

Yes, the valve carries a vacuum service rating of 29 in Hg and the 316 stainless steel ball with PTFE seats maintains seal integrity at that vacuum level.
