These vented stainless steel ball valves are built to withstand harsh environments, giving growers and operators confidence that their systems will perform reliably during limited timeframes. Explicitly designed for anhydrous ammonia (NH3) applications, the valves are also suitable for a wide range of essential fluid control operations. Each valve features a waterproof actuator housing rated to IP68 and IP69, ensuring long-lasting, reliable performance. The proprietary sealing technology helps reduce water damage and operational risks, making these valves an ideal choice for critical agricultural spraying and fertilizer distribution systems where downtime is not an option. The valves are specifically engineered for actuation and connect directly to the included actuator, and because the valves require less torque, this allows for a smaller, lighter, and more affordable actuator. The valves for Raven Systems have a Conxall electrical connection designed to fit Raven Systems.
