Angle Ball Gas Valve Valvex ORION model 3403080 with rotating nut and aluminum butterfly handle

Valvex ORION angle ball gas valve model 3403080 is a compact shut-off valve designed for angled installation in gas pipelines. It provides manual control of gas flow with a full-bore ball mechanism and an aluminum butterfly handle. The valve includes a rotating nut to simplify connection in confined or offset installations and is intended for residential and light-commercial gas systems where a reliable, space-saving shut-off is required.

Advantages

The angle design reduces the need for additional fittings and saves installation space. A rotating nut facilitates easier alignment and tightening without rotating the entire valve body, which helps maintain seal integrity during installation. The aluminum butterfly handle offers a durable, corrosion-resistant grip for manual operation and quick visual indication of valve position. The construction is optimized for gas applications, providing a straightforward shut-off function with minimal pressure drop.

Suitable for

• Residential gas supply shut-off points
• Light-commercial gas appliances and lines
• Installations with limited space or angled piping runs
• Situations requiring a compact manual isolation valve

Key specifications

• Type: angle ball shut-off valve for gas
• Actuation: manual, aluminum butterfly handle
• Connection feature: rotating nut for simplified alignment
• Bore: full through bore for unrestricted flow when open
• Application: suitable for residential and light-commercial gas pipelines
• Material highlights: metal valve body with corrosion-resistant handle

How to use

Install the valve at the required angled location in the gas line following applicable codes and using appropriate thread sealant or approved sealing methods. Use the rotating nut to align and secure the connection without twisting the valve body. Turn the aluminum butterfly handle 90 degrees to open or close the ball bore; the handle position indicates flow state when aligned with the pipeline. After installation, perform leak testing and commissioning according to local regulations prior to putting the line into service.

Usage recommendations

For safe operation, have installations and any maintenance performed by a qualified technician. Periodically inspect the valve and handle for signs of corrosion or wear and verify tightness of connections. Avoid excessive torque on the handle and rotating nut to prevent damage to seals or threads.
