Ball valve for soldering ARCO T-2000 35 mm PN30 TAJO

The ARCO T-2000 TAJO 35 mm soldering ball valve is designed for in-line installation in plumbing and heating systems where permanent soldered joints are required. With a PN30 pressure rating and a compact body suited to copper or compatible piping, this valve provides reliable on/off flow control for residential and light commercial installations. The valve features a full-bore spherical closure that offers straightforward operation and a durable seat design intended for standard water and heating media.

Advantages

The solderable end connections enable a secure, leak-resistant joint when installed by a qualified fitter, while the PN30 pressure rating ensures suitability for higher-pressure domestic and light commercial systems. The compact 35 mm body reduces space requirements in tight installations, and the ball valve mechanism provides quick quarter-turn operation for immediate flow shutoff. Materials and design focus on corrosion resistance and smooth operation over repeated cycles.

Suitable for

• Domestic hot and cold water distribution
• Residential heating circuits and radiators
• Small commercial plumbing installations with copper pipework
• Applications requiring soldered (permanent) joints

Key specifications

• Connection type: soldering ends for copper or compatible piping
• Nominal diameter: 35 mm
• Pressure rating: PN30
• Operation: quarter-turn ball valve
• Body: compact design for limited-space installations
• Media: suitable for water and typical heating fluids

How to use

Prepare the piping ends by cleaning and fluxing according to standard soldering practice. Position the valve inline and heat the joint evenly until the solder flows to form a secure connection, then allow the assembly to cool before restoring system pressure. Operate the valve by turning the handle a quarter turn to open or close; confirm correct orientation for flow direction during installation. Ensure the system is depressurised and drained where required before any soldering or maintenance work.

Usage recommendations

Installations should be performed by qualified personnel following local codes and standards. Use appropriate flux and solder compatible with the piping material and the valve. Avoid exposing the valve handle or internal components to direct flame; protect the valve body during soldering to prevent damage to seals. Periodic inspection for leaks and operational checks are recommended as part of routine system maintenance.
