- Outline Dimensions & Weight (Typical values – may vary by manufacturer)
Dimension Parameter | Value (Straight pattern, twin ferrule) |
Valve Length (end-to-end) L | Approx. 65 – 85 mm (depending on design) |
Ferrule Tube O.D. | 12 mm (common for DN15) or 1/2″ (12.7 mm) |
Overall Height (handwheel) H | Approx. 70 – 90 mm (higher when handwheel raised) |
Handwheel Diameter | Approx. 40 – 50 mm |
Hex Size (body) | Approx. 22 mm |
Valve Weight | Approx. 0.3 – 0.5 kg |
Dimensions above are typical references. Final dimensions to be confirmed with manufacturer’s drawing.
- Pressure-Temperature Rating (Stainless Steel 316 body)
Temperature (°C) | Max. Working Pressure (bar) | Remarques |
-20 ~ 38 | 64 (PN64 rating) | Ambient |
100 | 56 | |
150 | 48 | |
200 | 42 | |
250 | 36 | |
300 | 28 | |
350 | 22 | |
400 | 16 | |
Note: PN64 is the maximum allowable working pressure at ambient temperature. As temperature increases, pressure must be derated per ASME B16.34. PTFE packing has a maximum service temperature of approx. 200°C; graphite packing is required for higher temperatures.

Flow Characteristic | Linear |
Type de vanne | Needle regulating / shut-off valve |
End Connection | Twin ferrule – suitable for stainless steel or copper tubing |
- Caractéristiques principales
- Needle stem tip – Provides precise flow regulation for very low flow rates
- Twin ferrule connection – No welding required; reliable leak-tight seal; easy disassembly and maintenance
- Stainless steel body – Excellent corrosion resistance
- Blow-out proof stem – Ensures safety under high pressure
- Replaceable packing – Easy online adjustment or replacement
- Multiple stem tip options – Soft seat (PTFE/PEEK) or metal hard seat (sharp edge / blunt)
- Bi-directional sealing – Can withstand pressure from both directions (arrow indicates recommended flow direction)
- Installation & Operation Instructions
- Ferrule installation – Insert tube fully into the ferrule socket. Hand-tighten the nut, then tighten with a wrench 1 – 1.25 turns from finger-tight (follow manufacturer’s instructions).
- Flow direction – An arrow on the body indicates recommended flow direction. The valve can be used bidirectionally, but pressure drop may differ slightly.
- Opération – Turn the handle clockwise to close, counterclockwise to open. Needle valves are designed for flow regulation; avoid long-term operation in fully closed or barely open positions.
- Maintenance – If external leakage occurs, carefully tighten the packing nut after depressurizing. If leakage persists, replace the packing.
