Valves & Actuation
GF Type 546 True Union Ball Valves feature a short overall length, buttress thread design and universal multi-function module. This module significantly expands the number of uses for the Type 546 by allowing the user to easily add different accessories, actuators and switches. The multi-function module can also be used for easy wall and panel mount installation or as a position feedback unit by adding one of five different micro-switch options. GF Type 546 valves are easily automated with the newly introduced line of pneumatic and electric actuators that have been specifically designed to compliment the modularity and flexibility of the Type 546 ball valve.
Hayward Angle Valves are used in tight spaces where a 90° change in flow direction is needed and there is insufficient room for extra fittings. Since they are globe type valves, they are ideal for sampling and for throttling applications. Hayward Angle Valves use precision-machined, fine-pitch threaded stems that allow for precise flow control down to shutoff. The 1/4" size valve has integrally molded-in lugs for easy panel mounting of the valve. Pressure Rating - 150 psi @ 70°F (non-shock). Molded-in Lugs for Panel Mounting - 1/4” size. NSF Approved, All PVC Construction.
Hayward Y-Check Valves prevent reversal of flow in piping systems. They are ideal where backflow could potentially cause damage to pumps, filters or process equipment. Hayward Y-Check Valves operate without the need for any adjustments or settings. A plastic coil (not a spring) supports the disc inside the body. When the inlet flow stops, back pressure (a minimum of 2 psi is required) moves the disc with its elastomer o-ring onto a plastic seat - shutting off the flow.
