The Dwyer BV2M106 is a two-piece stainless steel ball valve designed for reliable shutoff and isolation in chemical and general industrial systems. Its 1-1/2" female NPT configuration provides a threaded connection for compatible process piping and industrial installations.
The valve body, ball, and end cap are manufactured from investment-cast CF8M stainless steel, while the stem is made from 316 stainless steel. Its 15% glass-reinforced PTFE (RTFE) seats provide bubble-tight shutdown up to 1000 psi (69 bar) WOG.
Actuator mounting pads are included as standard, allowing compatible pneumatic or electric actuators to be mounted without requiring a separate bracket. This makes the BV2M106 suitable for systems where automated valve operation is required.
The valve is rated for an operating temperature range of -20° to 450°F (-29° to 232°C). Its stainless steel construction and RTFE seating make it suitable for chemical, petrochemical, pulp and paper, and general industrial service.
For applications requiring a smaller pipe size in the same valve family, the Dwyer BV2M105 provides a 1-1/4" configuration.
