Norgren X3066522 Manual Valve 0.38 Inch Npt Knob

Product Description

The NORGREN X3066522 is a manually operated, packed spool valve designed for controlled flow shutoff and directional switching in pneumatic and fluid systems. Actuated by a knob, it offers straightforward two-position operation without the need for electrical actuation or external pilot signals. The valve features a 3/8-inch NPT outlet connection and a Cv rating of 0.98, making it suitable for low-to-moderate flow applications. Rated for working temperatures between 32 degrees F and 158 degrees F, it handles standard industrial service conditions. Licensed technicians and pipefitters install this valve in compressed air lines, pneumatic control circuits, and similar utility systems where manual flow control is required.

This valve is used in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings where a reliable manual shutoff or flow-diversion point is needed in a pneumatic or compatible fluid line. Its compact knob-actuated design makes it accessible in tight panel or manifold installations. The 3/8-inch NPT thread size fits standard pipe fittings used throughout pneumatic distribution systems. The black body finish provides straightforward visual identification in multi-valve assemblies. Installers working on compressed air maintenance stations, pneumatic tool supply lines, or small-bore process control circuits will find this valve a direct fit for manual isolation duties.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or pneumatic systems technician. Depressurize and lock out the pneumatic or fluid supply line completely before removing the existing valve or making any connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant to NPT fittings in accordance with system media and local code requirements. Confirm flow direction and valve position markings before returning the system to service.
