Insta-Valve Plus provides a means of a permanent block valve into a pressurized water main with no interruption of flow through the pipe and no reduction of line pressure. The insertion of an Insta-Valve Plus is accomplished through a single circular whole cut (under full line pressure) into the top of the pipe with no reaming.
By stocking 4, 6, 8, 10 & 12 valve body you have a unique valve that will insert into steel, PVC, C-900, Cast-iron, Ductile-iron and A/C by utilizing interchangeable side glands that mate the valve body to the pipeline. These standard bodies can be opened up to fit larger O.D.s such as class 200 A/C pipe. For the 10 and larger valves, standard bodies will fit steel, PVC, C-900, Cast-iron and Ductile-iron.
The patented Insta-Valve Plus is a resilient seat wedge valve that uses bullet stopper technology to stop flow in all types of pipe 4 thru 12 & 16and can be installed under, pressure up to 150 P.S.I. Insta-Valves meet and exceed industry standards for years of trouble free service.
The InsertValve™ is a real valve! This valve meets or exceeds AWWA C515 valve specifications and all sizes provide AWWA standard turns. The InsertValve™ operates at 250 psi. working pressure. Its ductile iron bodies fit all pipeline O.D.’s in each size class.
The Insert Valve bodies permanently restrain the valve body to the pipe. The gate can be replaced in the future without a shut down of the system. The valve body provides full mechanical protection of the pipe. The Gate seats against the valve body without relying on the existing pipeline for a shutdown.
The valve body will accept the Butterfly Cartridge in lieu of the gate assembly.
