3.6MUELLER Resilient Wedge Gate Valves of the rising stem (OS&Y) style have Flanged Ends with flange
imensions and drilling complying with ANSI B16.1 Class 125 (ISO PN10/PN16 drilling optional).
d

4.MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS
4.1Cap screw
4.1.12” thru 12” sizes – Stainless Steel Type 304.
5.12-1/2” thru 48” sizes - fully unobstructed, oversized (except 16" which is same size) flow way. The
sealing mechanism is withdrawn from the flow way in a full open position. No pockets in bottom of
flow way to trap sediment or debris. The flow way will permit passage of full-sized shell cutters (except
16" which requires undersized cutter).
5.2Bronze Disc Nut on non-rising stem valves.
5.3Anti-Friction Washers on non-rising stem valves – Are located above and below the thrust collar portion
of the stem to reduce friction and provide more effective conversion of operating torques into seating
loads.
5.4Stem for non-rising stem valves, with O-ring Seals – One O-ring is located below the thrust collar of the
stem and two are located above the thrust collar, the upper most serving as a dirt seal. The O-rings and
thrust collar are factory lubricated. The two primary O-rings seal the thrust collar area from outside
contaminants and water, and retain an ample amount of lubricant on the thrust collar and anti-friction
washers to reduce operating torque and wear.
5.5Stem – The threads on the bronze stem are Acme form threads for strength and efficiency. The stem
thrust collar is made integral with the stem -- and is formed by a heat upset operation for valves thru 16"
in size; cast in place for 18" and larger valves.
5.6Upper Stem O-ring Replacement – The two O-rings above the thrust collar of all MUELLER Resilient
Wedge Gate Valves can be replaced with the valve in the fully open position, under pressure, with no
leakage.
5.7Corrosion Resistant – 2" thru 36" sizes - all inside and outside cast iron surfaces are coated with
MUELLER PRO-GARD®Epoxy Coating, 10 mils nominal. MUELLER PRO-GARD®Epoxy Coating is nontoxic and imparts no taste to water. 42” thru 54" sizes - all inside and outside cast iron surfaces coated
with MUELLER HP®Epoxy Coating. Both coatings comply with ANSI/AWWA C550 and are certified to
ANSI/NSF Standard 61.
6.OPTIONAL FEATURES
6.1MUELLER 2300 Series Resilient Wedge Gate Valves can be furnished with the following optional designs
or features:
6.1.1Gearing – Bevel and Spur gearing available on valves 4" and larger. Valves 30" and larger
gearing is required. Bevel geared valves are for horizontal installations; spur geared for vertical.
Geared valves provide an additional bearing to support the extreme end of the stem. Bevel
and spur geared valves are furnished with a grease case. Any valve leakage past the stuffing
box does not enter the grease case.
6.1.2Bypass valve – Valves 18" or larger. The bypass valves are non-rising stem Mueller
Resilient Wedge Valves. The bypass size and location comply with Section 24 of AWWA C500.
6.1.3Position indicator – Available for NRS valves 4” and larger.
6.1.4Bolts and nuts – Stainless Steel, Type 316.
6.1.5Stem – Silicon bronze - Valves 16" and smaller ASTM B98 C66100; 18" and larger ASTM B763
C99400 or C99500.
7.1The pressure test on each MUELLER Resilient Wedge Gate Valve meets the requirements of AWWA
tandard C509 and C515 for Resilient Seated Valves.
S
7.1.1Each MUELLER Resilient Wedge Gate Valve is subjected to two pressure tests. The seat test is at
the working pressure of AWWA valves and 1-1/2 times working pressure of UL Listed valves.
Shell tests are at two times the working pressure.
7.1.2Pressure tests at the working pressure shall show NO leakage past the seat from either side of
the wedge or at the flange joints. Pressure tests at twice the working pressure shall show NO
leakage through the metal or flange joints.
7.1.3Test pressures are as follows: 2" thru 54" – 250 psi - Seat Test, 500 psi - Shell Test.
