Norgren T72E-2AA-P1N Lockout Air Valve 1/4 Inch Npt

Product Description

The NORGREN T72E-2AA-P1N is a lockout air valve designed for pneumatic isolation and energy control applications in industrial and commercial settings. It uses a slide actuator mechanism with a 2-position, 2-port configuration, allowing technicians to positively shut off and lock out compressed air supply lines during maintenance or equipment servicing. The valve features 1/4 inch NPT threaded inlet and outlet ports, a Cv rating of 4.0, and supports a maximum working pressure of 250 psi. Weighing 0.8 pounds, it is compact enough for installation in tight pneumatic panel or machine environments. Licensed pneumatic system technicians and industrial maintenance mechanics are the primary installers.

This valve is suited for compressed air lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures on production machinery, automated equipment, pneumatic conveying systems, and air-powered tools. The 1/4 inch NPT connection size makes it compatible with small-bore pneumatic lines common in light-duty industrial and commercial HVAC or process control systems. It is appropriate for both new installations and retrofit applications where a reliable manual air isolation point is required. Operating temperature range spans from -30 degrees F to 150 degrees F, making it functional across a wide range of indoor and sheltered outdoor environments.

Key Features

• Slide actuator provides tactile, positive 2-position lockout actuation
• 1/4 inch NPT threaded ports for standard compressed air line integration
• Cv rating of 4.0 with a maximum flow capacity of 120 cubic feet per minute
• Rated to 250 psi maximum working pressure
• Operating range of -30 degrees F to 150 degrees F (-34 degrees C to 65 degrees C)
• Compact design at 0.8 pounds for use in space-constrained pneumatic assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct installation lockout valve for pneumatic systems utilizing 1/4 inch NPT threaded connections and operating within the stated pressure and temperature parameters.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed industrial mechanics or pneumatic system technicians. The compressed air supply must be fully depressurized and bled before connecting or disconnecting any pneumatic fittings. Apply appropriate thread sealant to NPT connections per manufacturer and facility standards. Verify downstream equipment is de-energized and locked out per OSHA LOTO regulations before placing the valve in service.
