Parker XV500CS-8 Ball Valve 1/2 Inch Fnpt 2000 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER XV500CS-8 is a 2-piece standard manual ball valve designed for industrial fluid control applications. Built with a carbon steel body and carbon steel trim, it delivers a maximum working pressure of 2000 psi and a Cv rating of 15, making it well suited for moderate- to high-pressure service. The valve uses reinforced polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) seat and seal material for chemical resistance and long service life. A lever handle provides fast, quarter-turn shutoff. Connections are 1/2 inch female NPT (FNPT) on both ends. This valve is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial mechanics on commercial and industrial piping systems.

The XV500CS-8 is a general-purpose shutoff valve suited for liquid and gas service in industrial, commercial, and mechanical piping systems where 1/2 inch FNPT connections and high-pressure ratings are required. Its 2-piece body construction allows for straightforward installation in tight spaces. The lever handle enables quick visual confirmation of open or closed position, which is useful in process lines, equipment isolation, and maintenance bypass applications.

Key Features

• 2-piece carbon steel body rated to 2000 psi maximum working pressure
• 1/2 inch FNPT x FNPT end connections for standard threaded pipe assembly
• Reinforced PTFE seat and seal material for chemical resistance and low-torque operation
• Lever handle delivers quarter-turn, full-bore shutoff with open/closed visual indication
• Cv rating of 15 supports adequate flow capacity for typical 1/2 inch line applications
• Compact 2-piece valve structure simplifies installation and replacement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation ball valve for 1/2 inch threaded piping systems requiring FNPT x FNPT connections and a 2000 psi pressure rating in industrial or commercial service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable mechanical and plumbing codes. Isolate and depressurize the line completely before removing or installing any valve. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to male NPT threads per standard practice — do not overtighten, as carbon steel threads can gall. Verify system pressure does not exceed the 2000 psi rated maximum after returning the line to service.
