Model 600 - Retractable System Access Valve

Allow access to pressurised areas without process shutdown

The Model 600 Access Valve Assemblies are designed to allow access to pressurised areas without process shutdown at pressures up to 2000psi (138 barg).

The assembly consists of a Threadolet, pipe nipple, full bore ball valve and a 5" inter-joint pipe nipple. These items are available in almost any material to suit the client's requirement.

NOTE: The 5" nipple is used as standard, and is suitable for all probe elements except coupon holding shields which require a 9" nipple.
