The ADC Gage Valve is designed for use in 0 to 6000 psi fluid systems. Removal of the soft seat cap allows periodic calibration of the line gage and sampling of the fluid media without shutting down the pressurized system. With the elimination of swaging on the bonnet it provides an absolute, foolproof arrangement where it is impossible to undo the bonnet or the stem during operation.
