ELKHART BRASS MANUFACTURING COMPANY, INC
Elkhart Brass Unibody apparatus valves are specially designed for reliability, ease of installation and ease
of use.
BALL VALVE
• Unibody Ball Valves are available in 1.5", 2", 2.5", 3", 3.5", and 4" sizes.
• The bodies are constructed of corrosion resistant brass, and the ball is constructed from durable
stainless steel (EB15–EB35) or high strength brass alloy (EB40).
• Dual self-adjusting seats provide bidirectional sealing (EB15-EB35) or single self-adjusting abrasion
resistant unidirectional seat (EB40).
• Adapters (end caps) and pump flanges are constructed of either brass or stainless steel requiring no
O-rings that could cut or tear during servicing.
• Swing out construction allows for easy access to internal waterway.
• The patent pending Unibody design allows any actuator assembly to be bolted onto the valve body
without need to break the internal plumbing of the truck.
• Actuators are interchangeable so that a Unibody Valve may be easily converted to a different actuation
type without the need to break the waterway.
• Durable handles and handle stops ensure dependability, while the handle may be easily changed to
eight different positions by removing a single bolt.
BUTTERFLY VALVE
• Unibody Butterfly Valves are available in 3", 4", 5", 6", and 8" sizes.
• Bidirectional with EPDM seat.
• The butterfly valve utilizes either our extreme duty electric actuator or our gear actuator.
Unibody Valves meet or exceed NFPA 1901 Standards.
The electric valve utilizes a three-inch extreme duty motor and gearbox for ultimate reliability.
