It is commonly found in compressed gas distribution panels, manifold assemblies, and similar piping configurations requiring manual actuation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified gas technician in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements. Shut off and depressurize the supply line fully before removing any existing valve or fitting. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape appropriate for the service medium before threading the valve into the connection.
