Parker XV501P-16 Ball Valve 1 Inch Mnpt X Fnpt 600 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER XV501P-16 is a standard manual ball valve designed for reliable on/off flow control in piping systems. It features a 1-inch MNPT x FNPT end connection, a brass body, and a lever handle for quick quarter-turn operation. The valve is rated to a maximum working pressure of 600 psi, making it suitable for demanding industrial and commercial plumbing applications. The seat and seal are constructed from reinforced polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), which provides chemical resistance and a low-friction seating surface. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers of this type of valve.

This ball valve is appropriate for use in residential, commercial, and light industrial piping systems where manual shutoff or isolation is required. The MNPT x FNPT end configuration allows it to thread directly into standard pipe runs without additional adapters in most common installations. Its brass trim and body construction make it well suited for water, air, and many compatible fluid services. The lever handle provides a clear visual indicator of valve position, open or closed, which is a practical advantage in service and maintenance scenarios.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Depressurize and drain the piping system fully before removing any existing valve or installing this one. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making connections, and tighten to the manufacturer and code-specified engagement without over-torquing the brass fittings. Verify there are no leaks under system pressure before returning the line to service.
