Notes
- Needle valves are intended for low-flow throttling and isolation; not suitable for high-flow on/off duty where erosion can occur.
- Non-rotating tip design is standard; specify rotating tip only if media contains abrasive particles that require self-cleaning action.
- For sour gas service (H2S > 0.01 MPa partial pressure), select NACE MR0175 compliant material with hardness < 22 HRC.
- Panel-mount version includes square body and lock nut; specify panel thickness at order for correct nut thread length.
- Compression end fittings are Swagelok-compatible tube OD; specify tube OD and wall thickness for correct ferrule selection.
