Product Name: Straight Valve / Right Angle Valve (P/N 400072)

Description:
The Straight Valve Right Angle is a high-pressure flow control component used to regulate or isolate fluid passage. It features a straight-through inlet and a 90-degree outlet port, allowing for efficient directional changes in confined plumbing layouts. This configuration is typically utilized on manifolds, intensifier pumps, or cutting head assemblies to control the flow of ultra-high pressure water or hydraulic fluid.

Applications:

• Directional Control: Changing the flow direction by 90 degrees while providing a shut-off mechanism.

• Flow Isolation: Blocking flow to specific sections of the system (e.g., cutting head) during maintenance or emergency stops.

• Fluid Regulation: Adjusting flow rate or pressure in auxiliary or main circuits.

• High-Pressure Systems: Suitable for intensifier pumps, hydraulic power units, and cutting head assemblies.

Characteristics:

• High-Strength Material: Machined from stainless steel or plated carbon steel to withstand high cycle fatigue and corrosion.

• Compact Geometry: Allows for installation in tight spaces where a standard straight fitting is not feasible.

• Integral Seal: Metal-to-metal or O-ring sealing faces designed to prevent leakage under extreme pressure.

• Standard Ports: Threaded ends for compatibility with high-pressure tube fittings, ferrules, or adapters.

Maintenance:

• Depressurization: Always fully depressurize the system (hydraulic, water, and pneumatic circuits) before servicing the valve.

• Valve Stem/Seal: The internal stem seal or seat is a common wear point; replace if external leakage occurs.

• Thread Care: Clean and inspect threads for galling; apply anti-seize lubricant during reassembly.

• Torque Compliance: Tighten the valve body and fittings to the manufacturer’s specified torque values using a calibrated torque wrench.
