    72537699 Locking Device Model-1 valves can be ordered with a locking device installed or it may be installed by customers. This locking device prevents unauthorized users from changing the valve state (open or close) with a customer supplied lock. When installed, the lock and/or the cap may turn, but no torque is applied to the stem.
  • Page 7: Coating

    Figure 4: Locking Device Coating The Model-1 valve is ordered with either a zinc chromate gray primer coating or a two- component, high solids green epoxy coating. The gray primer will provide a limited indoor non-exposed protection against corrosion. It is the responsibility of the customer to provide long duration corrosion protection coverings or systems once installed per CFR 192 Subpart I.

     Standard end flange facing is 1/16" raised face with phonographic finish. Some valves may be ordered with a flat face finish. Contact Kerotest or your distributor for further information and availability of flat face finished valves. Flat face finished valves are slightly shorter than standard faced valves, as allowed per ASME B16.10.
