Series B
NPS 3 through 12 have been changed to reduce parts
and to improve control performance. The V-notch Ball
now resembles the NPS 14 through 20 V-notch Ball.
The pressed-in bushings have been eliminated, as well
as the thrust washer.
Micro-Notch Construction
For very precise control of low flow rates, the
Micro-Notch construction (see figure 3) is available on
NPS 1 valves. Three Micro-Notch ball materials are
available: chrome-plated CG8M (317 stainless steel),
solid alloy 6, and solid VTC ceramic. A VTC ceramic HD
seal is standard with the VTC ceramic ball. For the
CG8M and alloy 6 constructions, pressure and
temperature capabilities are the same as for standard
constructions. For the ceramic construction,
maximum temperature is 93_C (200_F).
