PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The Fire OS&Y Gate Valve Grooved 2½ Inch is a fire protection valve designed to open or close the flow of water within compatible fire-fighting piping networks. It is intended for applications where dependable isolation of a section of the system is required for operation, inspection, or maintenance.
The Outside Screw and Yoke (OS&Y) mechanism features a rising stem that helps operators visually identify whether the valve is open or closed. Its grooved-end connection is designed for use with compatible grooved pipes, couplings, and fittings, potentially simplifying installation where grooved piping systems are specified.
This valve may be suitable for fire sprinkler and fire-fighting water distribution systems when its pressure rating, design, and required fire protection approvals meet the project specifications. Installation and maintenance should follow the manufacturer’s instructions and applicable requirements.
