Parker’s Hi-Pro series distribution manifolds are supplied as an interconnected assembly utilising Parker Hi-Pro ball valves with two shut-off functions in one body, mounted on a base plate. Each valve has a 10 mm bore. Unlike many other air distribution manifolds, Parker offers integral ended connections, which eliminates the need for NPT.
There is a choice of eight configurations, with 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 or 20 valves. The distribution unit features connections at both ends; either of these can be used as an inlet and the other can either be blanked off or fitted with a purge valve as a build-to-order option. Parker can also supply the unit with a single valve connected to the inlet, enabling users to totally isolate all the outlet valves from the supply point.
The main inlet and outlet of the distribution unit offer a choice of connection types and sizes, including 1/4" to 1” female pipe threads and 1/4" to 2” socket welds, as well as a 2” flange. The distribution valve outlets can be 1/4" or 1/2" pipe threads.
As standard, the distribution ball valves are manufactured from 316 stainless steel and have a maximum working pressure rating of 6000 PSI (414 bar). The valves are also available in 6Mo versions. There is a choice of PTFE and PEEK seating materials – the latter offer a temperature range of -54 to 232˚C (-65.2 to 449˚F).
