Ball Valves
Class 150 / 300 Cv Characteristics For 6 mm to 400 mm.
Cv rating shown below are for regular Port Ball Valves, witch may be used in formulae to size valves to any piping system. Please note that the chart enclosed pertains only to water at ambient temperature. Pressure drop for Full Port Ball Valves is same as for equal length of standard pipe of same size. Following formulas may be used to obtain accurate data for any other media. Cv is the number of gallons per minutes of water which will passthrough a given flow restriction with pressure drop of 1 psi.
