Is the Stainless steel ball valve with BSP thread, type 2017K suitable for steam service up to 200Â°C and what pressure limits apply at that temperature?

Yes. Stainless steel ball valve with BSP thread, type 2017K is suitable for steam service up to 200Â°C, provided the steam is compatible with the valve materials (stainless steel CF8M body/ball, AISI 304 lever) and PTFE/RTFE seals. The specified operating temperature range is -20Â°C to +200Â°C. Pressure limits at elevated temperature depend on the valveâs pressureâtemperature ratings for the CF8M body and the PTFE seals. General guidance: - At ambient temperatures the valve will typically hold its nominal rated working pressure (refer to the manufacturerâs PN or psi rating for the specific size). - As temperature approaches 200Â°C, the allowable pressure is reduced because PTFE/RTFE softens and material strength changes; PTFE seal performance becomes limiting near 200Â°C. You must consult the manufacturerâs pressureâtemperature chart or technical datasheet for exact allowable pressures at 200Â°C for the specific valve size. If that chart is unavailable, do not exceed conservative low-pressure steam service limits (consult a qualified engineer) and consider using high-temperature seals or a valve rated specifically for steam at your required pressure.

Can the Stainless steel ball valve with BSP thread, type 2017K be used for aggressive chemicals and which temperatures/pressures are allowable?

Stainless steel ball valve with BSP thread, type 2017K can be used with many aggressive chemicals, gases, water, steam and petrochemical products provided the chemical compatibility of the valve materials (body and ball: stainless steel CF8M; seals: PTFE/RTFE) with the specific media is confirmed. PTFE seals offer good resistance to most chemicals but may be attacked by molten alkali metals, elemental fluorine, and certain aggressive fluorinating agents. Operating temperature range is -20Â°C to +200Â°C; allowable working pressure varies with temperature (higher at lower temperatures, reduced near the upper temperature limit) - consult manufacturer pressureâtemperature charts or datasheet for exact pressure ratings at specific temperatures and for media-specific compatibility.

Does the Stainless steel ball valve with BSP thread, type 2017K have a lever lock for safety during maintenance?

Yes. The Stainless steel ball valve with BSP thread, type 2017K has a lever lock for safety during maintenance. the product description explicitly lists "lever lock" as a feature. The valve is a one-piece reduced-flow design intended for industrial use (air, gases, water, steam, chemicals, petrochemical products, etc.), with stainless steel CF8M body and ball, AISI 304 lever, PTFE/RTFE ball sealing, PTFE stem sealing, BSP thread connection, and an operating temperature range of -20Â°C to +200Â°C.
