Parker C552304 Plug Valve 250 Psi 1/4 Inch Fnpt Brass

Product Description

The PARKER C552304 is a 1/4-inch instrumentation plug valve designed for precise flow control in instrumentation and process piping systems. The body is constructed from brass with a nitrile seal and a lever handle for quarter-turn operation. It accepts female NPT connections on both ends, making it straightforward to install inline without adapters. Rated to 250 psi maximum working pressure, this valve handles a wide temperature range from -40 degrees F to 175 degrees F, suiting it for a broad range of industrial and instrumentation applications. Licensed trades and instrumentation technicians install this valve where reliable shutoff is required.

This plug valve is well-suited for instrumentation tubing systems, gauge isolation, and process line service in both commercial and industrial settings. The FNPT x FNPT end connections accommodate standard pipe threading common in gas, air, and liquid instrumentation lines. Its compact design and lever handle allow quick actuation in tight panel or manifold installations where reliable manual shutoff is needed.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified instrumentation technician or licensed pipefitter in accordance with applicable local and national codes. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing the valve. Apply thread sealant appropriate for the service media to the male NPT threads before assembly. Verify that the nitrile seal material is compatible with the process fluid before placing the valve in service.
