Part No. MV5-SM1
The Dwyer MV5-SM1 is a compact 1/8" mini brass ball valve designed for tight spaces where a standard-size valve may be difficult to install. It features male x female NPT process connections and a screwdriver slot handle for straightforward manual operation.
The valve uses a chrome-plated brass body and ball for compact and durable construction. A fluoroelastomer O-ring provides the stem seal, while pure PTFE ball seats provide bubble-tight shutdown and broad media compatibility.
A double seal mechanism allows bidirectional operation, meaning the valve can be installed in either direction within the line. This provides greater installation flexibility for panels, skids, instrumentation systems, and utility piping.
Rated for 450 psi CWP, with an operating pressure range from -29" Hg vacuum to 450 psi (31 bar), the MV5-SM1 is suitable for compressed air, instrumentation, and general utility shutoff applications.
