Italian ductile gate valve made of cast iron.
Detailed technical specifications for this valve:
1. Size and Diameter (Size)
It is marked DN250: This means the nominal diameter of the valve is 250 mm (equivalent to 10 inches). This is a large and excellent size for main lines transporting water and large-scale irrigation.
2. Operating Pressure (Pressure Rating)
Marked PN16: This means the valve is designed to withstand an operating pressure of up to 16 bar (bar is a unit of pressure measurement), which is a very strong standard and efficiently handles high pumping network pressures and main lines.
3. Country of Manufacture and Quality (Origin)
There is a clear sticker that says MADE IN ITALY. Italian valves are known in the Saudi market for their high quality, long lifespan, and resistance to harsh weather conditions compared to other types.
