Dear bosses, the small needle valve spools in our sample collectors tend to leak internally. I would like to order some replacements, but I’m not sure about the model numbers; could everyone please help me out by taking a look? Stellite sealed globe valve KPJ91Y-160P – what does KP stand for? J stands for a globe valve, 9 indicates a pressure rating of 2500 LB, and 1 refers to a valve cover design with bolted connections and a swing-type mechanism. What does Y mean? And what does 160P mean? Please explain these to us.
There’s a phone there; asking will be faster
What you say makes a lot of sense: handshake
It’s better to ask the manufacturer directly in this case. There are many different models of stop valves available, with subtle differences between them; those who are not professional manufacturers will likely not be able to tell the difference
I asked the manufacturer, and the KP at the beginning is an abbreviation for the manufacturer’s name
This post was last edited by Bluesweeney on 2021-6-1 09:00. KP: Unknown; most likely an abbreviation for the manufacturer’s name. J: Globe valve. 9: Socket connection. 1: Straight-through flow path. Y: Cemented carbide seal. 160: Pressure rating PN160. P: Stainless steel material. These are the standard designations.*Relying solely on this model alone will not guarantee the purchase of a product that meets the requirements; the actual valve model specifications and material details should be provided by the manufacturer, as they are the ones best aware of the specifics of their products
