This standard covers gray-iron, ductile-iron, and cast-steel flanged-end, low-leakage, shaft- or trunnion-mounted, full-port, and double- and single-seated ball valves for pressures up to 150 psi (1,050 kPa) in sizes 4 in. through 60 in. (100 mm through 1,500 mm) diameter and pressures up to 300 psi (2,100 kPa) in sizes from 4 in. through 48 in. (100 mm through 1,200 mm) diameter for use in water, wastewater, and reclaimed water systems having water with a pH greater than 6 and less than 12 and with temperatures greater than 32°F (0°C) and less than 125°F (52°C). This standard can be referenced in documents for purchasing and receiving ball valves and can be used as a guide for fabricating and assembling resilient seated ball valves (RSBV) or meal seated ball valves (MSBV) 4 in. through 60 in. (100 mm through 1,500 mm).

The requirements set forth herein apply when this document has been referenced and then only to ball valves 4 in. through 60 in. (100 mm through 1,500 mm) for water, wastewater, and reclaimed water supply service applications. Downloadableversions of current and historical standards are also available.
