The integrated test valve assembly consists of two stainless steel Swagelok 63 series general purpose ball valves for isolation and testing and a sturdy CF3M Swagelok two-bolt universal mount that offers easy installation of a steam trap.
Valves feature oval quarter-turn handles available in locking, non-locking, and latch-locking models and a wide variety of end connections, including Swagelok tube fitting, female NPT, and female ISO-7/1.
Choose from three test valve vent locations: facing towards the steam trap, away from the steam trap, or downward.
