BANJO
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about BANJO from 3G Electric.
What materials are BANJO polypropylene ball valves made from, and what are their pressure ratings?
BANJO polypropylene ball valves are constructed from polypropylene, a thermoplastic known for chemical resistance and lightweight properties. The valves are available in sizes from 1/2 inch to 3 inches, with pressure ratings up to 300 psi CWP (cold working pressure) for certain models, such as the LV050100MTV. The body configurations include two-piece or three-piece designs, with connections like FNPT, MNPT, flange, or camlock. These valves are suitable for water, chemicals, and slurries where metal valves would corrode.
What types of connections are available for BANJO cam and groove fittings?
BANJO cam and groove fittings, such as the Type E adapter (MPN 075E), are available in polypropylene with EPDM gaskets. The coupling size for this model is 3/4 inch, with a male hose shank fitting type. These fittings are designed for quick-connect applications in hose systems, providing a secure, leak-resistant connection. Other connection types may include female couplers or adapters, depending on the specific part number.
What is the flow rate and power source for BANJO engine-driven water pumps?
The BANJO 200P6PRO engine-driven water pump is powered by a 6 1/2 hp engine with solid-state ignition. It delivers a flow rate of 190 gpm at 20 ft of head, with 2-inch FNPT inlet and outlet connections. The volute is made from polypropylene, offering corrosion resistance. This pump is designed for portable water transfer in agricultural or industrial settings, such as irrigation or dewatering.
Are BANJO ball valves suitable for use with chemicals?
Yes, BANJO polypropylene ball valves are suitable for many chemical applications due to polypropylene's resistance to acids, bases, and solvents. However, compatibility depends on the specific chemical concentration and temperature. The valves are rated for pressures up to 300 psi CWP, but chemical exposure may affect pressure limits. Always verify chemical compatibility with the manufacturer's data for the specific valve model and gasket material.
What sizes of BANJO polypropylene ball valves does 3G Electric supply?
