Profec Gate Valve Brass 3/4" Female Thread 16 bar DN20 Type 201
Profec Type 201 Brass Gate Valve DN20 – 3/4″ Female Thread, 16 bar
The Profec Type 201 is a full-bore brass gate valve designed for reliable on/off flow control in water supply, pool plant rooms, irrigation networks, and greenhouse piping systems. Built to a nominal diameter of DN20 with 3/4″ female BSP threads on both ends, it screws directly onto standard male-threaded pipe fittings, pumps, and manifold ports without adapters. The cast brass body withstands working pressures up to 16 bar and temperatures from -20 °C to 110 °C, making it equally at home in cold-water mains and low-pressure hot-water circuits.
The rising-stem design uses a PTFE-packed gland seal around the brass spindle, providing a leak-free shut-off that can be re-tightened on site without removing the valve from the line. The cast-aluminium handwheel finished in red gives clear visual status at a glance and supplies ample torque for tight shut-off even after long service intervals. With a face-to-face body length (Lb) of 79.7 mm and an overall height (Ct-1) of 57.5 mm to the bonnet flange, the valve fits neatly into compact pipe runs where space is limited.

Compatibilità
This valve is compatible with 3/4″ male BSP-threaded pipe fittings, pump outlets, filter housings, and manifold ports in brass, steel, or plastic. It is suitable for cold potable water, pool recirculation water, irrigation supply lines, and low-pressure hot-water systems up to 110 °C. Verify that upstream system pressure does not exceed 16 bar before installation.

In dettaglio
- Full 16 bar rated brass body handles mains pressure without derating
- PTFE gland packing can be re-tightened in service to cure minor stem weeps
- 3/4" female threads on both ends allow direct connection to standard BSP male fittings – no adapters needed
- Red cast-aluminium handwheel delivers high torque for positive shut-off and instant open/closed visibility
- Compact 79.7 mm face-to-face length fits tight plant-room and manifold installations
- Gate valves are designed for full open or full closed duty only – not suitable for flow throttling
- Rising stem increases overall height when open; allow clearance above the handwheel
- Heavier and taller than an equivalent ball valve of the same bore, which may be a factor in space-critical installations
