Series 59 Full-Port Ball Valves
Manual and automated valves for processes requiring maximum fl ow area
Flow Control Division
Worcester Controls
Full-port ball valves are recommended for processes requiring
minimum restriction through piping, shutoff valves, and other
equipment. For example, pump inlet valves are often full-port
valves. Full-port valves are also useful in systems handling
slurries, viscous fl uids and fl uids with residues, and where the
capacity to pig lines is desired.
¼ "- 2" Series 59 valves are rated to ANSI Class 600. 3" and 4"
valves are rated to ANSI Class 300.
Worcester offers a complete line of pneumatic and electric
automation packages for on/off or throttling control, including
the Series 39 twin piston pneumatic actuator and the Series 75
electric actuator.
Series 59 full-port valves are available in a fi re-rated confi guration
AF59 in sizes ½ ", ¾ ", 1", 1½ ", and 2". Flanged ANSI Class 150 and
300 full-port valves are available in sizes ½ "- 10".

Seat/Seal Standard valves, less than 1 x 10-6 cc He/sec
Leakage: inboard and through (bubbletight is 1 x 10-4 cc
He/sec). With preparation, leakage will be less
than 2 x 10

Flow: Bidirectional
* These are valve body pressure ratings. Seat selection may derate the valve.
Example: a 1" carbon steel Series 59 valve has a rating of 1480 psi at 70°F.
Selection of reinforced TFE seats operating at fl uid temperature of 200°F limits
allowable pressure in the valve to 1000 psi.
