Angle Body Piston Valve for steam and water lines
This Red Hat 8290A792 angle body piston valve handles 1/2 inch pipe connections in industrial and commercial plumbing. Its stainless steel body and FKM seals suit indoor or outdoor installations where fluid temperatures reach 366°F. The normally closed, two-way design starts shut and opens when energised, making it a direct fit for automated drain and trap circuits.
Flow capacity and pressure limits
A Cv of 4.1 provides measurable headroom for moderate steam or water flow through the 1/2 inch orifice. The valve operates from 0 psi minimum differential up to 150 psi with steam and 180 psi with water. Systems demanding higher differential pressure or larger orifice capacity will exceed this model’s rated envelope.
Thermal and environmental performance
Rated to 366°F fluid temperature, the valve maintains seal integrity in high-temperature steam service without external cooling. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in both indoor and outdoor environments. No power draw or noise figures are published for the solenoid actuator in the supplied data.

Questions about this item
Will the 1/2 in angle body piston valve with 4.1 Cv handle the same steam pressure as my existing 150 psi system?
Yes, the valve is rated for a maximum steam operating pressure differential of 150 psi, matching your current system.
How can I confirm the valve opens correctly after installation?
Apply steam or water up to the rated 150 psi steam or 180 psi water differential; the normally closed valve should open when the coil is energised.
Does the 8290A792 come with the coil and connector, or must I order them separately?
The supplied unit includes the stainless steel body, FKM seals, and integrated coil assembly; no separate coil or connector purchase is required.
