Globe Valve Angle Bronze JIS 5K - F7302
Bronze Angle Globe Valve JIS 5K F7302
The JIS F7302 is a 90° angle globe valve designed for low-pressure marine piping systems. It features a JIS 5K flanged connection and manual operation via handwheel. The angle pattern is specified where a change in flow direction is required without additional fittings, minimizing connection points and potential leak paths in the network.
Technical Construction
- Design standard: JIS F 7302-1996
- Test standard: JIS F 7400-1996
- Nominal pressure class: JIS 5K
- Body test pressure: 1.05 MPa
- Seat test pressure: 0.77 MPa
- Body material: BC6
- Bonnet: BC6
- Disc: BC6
- Stem: C3771BD or BE
- Handwheel: FC200
- Available DN: 15 to 65
Suitable Media
Primarily used in auxiliary shipboard systems for:
- fresh water
- sea water (corrosion and galvanic compatibility must be verified)
- lubricating or light oils (after seal material compatibility check)
- low-pressure steam, provided temperature and pressure remain within network limits
Marine Applications
- engine room cooling lines
- auxiliary water circuits
- bilge, ballast, or service water systems where bronze equipment is specified
- locations with restricted installation space
- piping requiring both throttling and 90° flow direction change
F7302 vs F7301
The F7301 is a straight-pattern globe valve; F7302 is angle-pattern. F7302 is selected where the pipeline changes direction by 90°. Both types are globe valves suitable for flow regulation, with higher pressure drop compared to full-bore valves.
Selection and Maintenance
Selection should consider DN, JIS 5K flanges, temperature, pressure, media, flow direction, and class requirements. Standard actuation is manual; no electric or pneumatic actuator options are documented. Maintenance focuses on seat, disc, bonnet gasket, and stem sealing integrity.
