Pressure ratings, nominal sizes and seat materials at Bray

Even numbers wafer, odd numbers lug

The series number reveals the installation type – series 20, 22, 32 and 33 are wafer, 21, 23 and 31 are lug.

Bis 285 psi

Serie 31U erreicht 285 psi (20 bar), Serie 31H 250 psi (17,2 bar).

Bis 36 Zoll

The series 32 and 33 cover 22″ to 36″, equivalent to DN 550 to DN 900.

Six seat materials

BUNA-N, EPDM, HT-EPDM, FKM, polyurethane and neoprene – depending on the medium.

−29 °C to +121 °C

Operating range with peroxide-cured EPDM as the seat material.

Top flange ISO 5211

Pneumatic and electric part-turn actuators can be mounted without a special adapter.

The Bray range at Armaturenfabrik

We trade in Bray valves and supply from the manufacturer range. The series listed below are a selection – we can source the complete Bray range, including series not listed here.

Reading the Bray series system

With Bray the series number tells you how the valve is connected and what pressure it withstands. Anyone who knows the system finds the right series in one step.

SeriesInstallation typeSize rangePressure rating
Series 20wafer1″ to 20″ (DN 25 – 500)150 psi (10.3 bar)
Series 21lug1″ to 20″ (DN 25 – 500)150 psi (10.3 bar)
Series 22wafer2″ to 20″ (DN 50 – 500)150 psi (10.3 bar)
Series 23lug2″ to 20″ (DN 50 – 500)150 psi (10.3 bar)
Series 31Hlug2″ to 20″ (DN 50 – 500)250 psi (17.2 bar)
Series 31Ulug2″ to 12″ (DN 50 – 300)285 psi (20 bar)
Series 32wafer22″ to 36″ (DN 550 – 900)75 psi (5.2 bar)
Series 33wafer22″ to 36″ (DN 550 – 900)150 psi (10.3 bar)

Two patterns can be read off: even numbers are wafer, odd numbers lug – and the larger the nominal size, the lower the permissible pressure rating. On the large series 32 and 33 it drops to 75 and 150 psi respectively. From our catalogue we additionally supply the types 40 and 41 of the higher series.

Seat material according to the medium

The seat determines which media and temperatures are permissible. The choices are BUNA-N for oils and fuels, EPDM and HT-EPDM for water and hot water, FKM for aggressive media, and polyurethane and neoprene for abrasive applications. Peroxide-cured EPDM can be used from −29 °C to +121 °C.

Actuator mounting

The top flanges conform to ISO 5211 – pneumatic and electric part-turn actuators can be mounted directly, without a special adapter.

Optional: adaptations to Bray valves

As a rule we supply Bray products unchanged from the manufacturer range. Where the project requires it, the following can be added for Bray:

  • choice of series according to installation type and the pressure rating required
  • seat material according to medium and temperature
  • part-turn actuator directly on the ISO 5211 top flange
  • valve supplied ready for installation with actuator and limit switch

FAQs

Can Bray fittings be customized?

Yes – series, seat material and actuator can be selected; further connections available.

For water, oils, fuels and abrasive media, depending on the seat material.

Yes – part-turn actuator mounted via ISO 5211, delivered function-tested.

We first review the operating data, materials and connection dimensions, then select the appropriate version from the Bray range. On request we add accessories and documentation.

Because the Bray series system encodes installation type and pressure rating in a single number – and because of our many years of experience as a partner.
