Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What is the cracking pressure of Apollo 61-100-01 ball valve?

A. It has a cracking pressure of 1/2 psi.

Q. How to clean this spring check valve?

A. It incorporates a self-cleaning mechanism that utilises the ball's rotation to wipe the seal surfaces, reducing the risk of buildup or contamination. This design is employed in applications where debris accumulation could compromise valve performance.

Q. Can this ball valve accommodate high-pressure systems without compromising its sealing capabilities?

A. The valve's robust construction includes reinforced seals to handle high pressures effectively. However, it's essential to adhere to pressure and temperature limits specified by the manufacturer for optimal performance and safety.

Q. What is the recommended protocol for emergency shut-off using Apollo 61-100-01 ball valve in critical processes?

A. To ensure swift shut-off in emergencies, a clearly marked and easily accessible manual operation lever is typically provided. Familiarise operators with its usage and integrate it into emergency response training.
