Ball valve 100, 101, 103 & 104

District heating ball valve, various connection options, PN 40

Data sheet

Product information

The Vexve ball valves types 100, 101, 103 and 104 are developed specifically for demanding applications in district heating. They are distinguished by their robust construction, high pressure and temperature resistance and flexible connection options.

Typ 103 and 104 are available as flanged ball valves and are ideally suited to district heating lines. They offer a reduced bore, flange connections to EN 1092-1 and are available in pressure ratings PN 10, 16, 25 and 40. For large nominal sizes (DN 65-500) versions with a manual gearbox and optionally electric or hydraulic actuators are available.

Die Typen 100 and 101 complete the portfolio with weld ends or female thread/weld end combinations for smaller nominal sizes (DN 10-50). All models are designed for a temperature range from -20 °C to +200 °C and meet leakage rate A to EN 12266-1.

Special features

  • Ideal for district heating applications
  • Flanged ball valve for large nominal sizes (DN 65-500)
  • Versions with weld ends or a female thread for DN 10-50
  • High pressure and temperature resistance
  • Optionally with a manual gearbox, electric or hydraulic actuator

Advantages

  • Four series: 100X/S and 104 with weld ends, 101 with a female thread, 103/25 with a flange
  • Body in steel P235GH, ball in 1.4301, ball seal PTFE+C
  • Leakage rate A to EN 12266-1
  • Operating range -20 to +200 °C, ambient from -40 °C

Versions

  • Type 100 – weld end / weld end
  • Type 101 – female thread / weld end
  • Typ 103 – Flansch / Flansch (DN 65–500)
  • Type 104 – weld end / weld end (DN 100-500)

Areas of application

  • District heating and cooling networks with buried lines
  • Nominal sizes DN 10 to DN 500
  • Connection types weld end, female thread or flange
  • Heating water applications up to +200 °C

Selection and installation

The connection type follows the installation situation: weld ends for buried installation, threads for house connections, flanges for replacement in a chamber. All series have a reduced bore – this must be checked where the pressure loss is tightly calculated.

We offer professional modifications for your valves:

  • Flanging of 3-part straight-way ball valves – including disassembly, modification and welding of welding neck flanges to DIN EN 1092-1, sealing surface form B1.
  • We also manufacture flanges to ANSI on request
  • Extended butt weld ends – special sizes and face-to-face lengths for steel or stainless steel, tested for leaks and manufactured to your specifications.

All work is carried out in accordance with the standard, with functional testing and optional certification (e.g. APZ 10204-3.1 B).

Benefit from customized solutions, fast implementation and the highest quality – even for the ball valves you provide.

Spindle extensions and stem extensions for ball valves

Increase the user-friendliness of your ball valves with stem or stem extensions. This modification is ideal for isolated valves or valves that are difficult to access and enables convenient manual operation or the connection of pneumatic and electric actuators.

Technical details:

  • Material: Stainless steel or galvanized steel for high corrosion resistance
  • Lengths: Individually adaptable for every installation situation
  • Couplings & adapters: Compatible with ISO 5211-
  • Assembly bridges for automation
  • Gaskets: Optionally with O-ring for additional safety
  • Temperature range: up to +180 °C (depending on valves and medium)
  • Installation: Simple retrofitting without replacing the valves

FAQs

Which series are available among the Vexve ball valves 100 to 104?

100X/S and 104 with butt-weld ends, 101 with female thread and weld end, 103/25 with flange connection to EN 1092-1.

DN 10 to DN 500. The threaded and welded series reach PN 40, the flanged series is available in PN 10, 16, 25 and 40.

Body in P235GH steel (1.0345), ball in 1.4301 stainless steel, ball seal PTFE+C, stem 1.4305, stem seal FPM.

No. The series are designed for water and heating water, not for steam. Vexve offers other series for steam applications.

Leakage rate A to EN 12266-1 – the tightest value the standard defines for shut-off valves.
