  • Brewery-Grade Steam Control: MNPT threading withstands 600 PSI steam surges in cannery/brewery boilers, preventing production halts during tank maintenance.
  • Male-Threaded Mineral Fighter: Chrome-plated ball + PTFE seats combat limescale in hard water cooling towers or brewery CIP systems.
  • 5-Minute Stem Service: Adjustable packing gland enables in-line seal replacement—critical for 24/7 food processing plants.
  • Permafrost-to-Foundry Range: -9°C antifreeze to 127°C thermal oil compatibility for Arctic pipelines or forging quench systems.

The 8080MT Expansion Tank Valve redefines safety in pressurized hydronic, boiler, and industrial cooling systems. Built to withstand 600 PSI WOG (Water, Oil, Gas) and extreme thermal cycling, this valve features rugged MNPT (Male National Pipe Thread) connections and a chrome-plated full-port ball for uninterrupted flow control. Its DZR lead-free brass body and military-grade plating thrive in corrosive environments like brine loops or chemical-laden cooling systems.

Key Features & Benefits

 Extreme-Pressure Isolation: Full-port ball valve isolates expansion tanks during maintenance, preventing shutdowns in district heating or industrial boiler systems.
 Threaded Durability: MNPT connections ensure vibration-resistant seals in high-pressure steam or glycol applications.
 Arctic-to-Boiler Resilience: Operates from 15°F to 260°F (-9°C to 127°C) with antifreeze (sub-freezing) or anti-boil additives (high-heat).
 Zero-Downtime Maintenance: Adjustable packing gland allows stem seal replacement without removing the valve from the system.
 Scaling Immunity: Virgin PTFE seats and chrome-plated ball resist mineral buildup in hard water or geothermal systems.

Why the 8080MT Dominates

This valve isn’t just a component—it’s a system lifeline. The MNPT threading provides a rock-solid seal in male-threaded piping systems, while the blow-out-proof stem prevents catastrophic failure during pressure spikes. Unlike smaller port valves, its full-bore design maintains maximum flow rates during emergency purges, critical for 500+ gallon thermal systems.

Note: Use thread sealant compatible with system media. Always pressure-test after installation.
