OVERVIEW

Reliable Gas Control with the Victor V-53 Station Valve

The Victor V-53 Station Valve (SKU: 639674) is a premium component designed for the rigorous demands of industrial gas distribution systems. Manufactured by Victor, a leader in gas equipment, this valve serves as a critical control point in manifold piping and station drops. Constructed from high-quality forged brass, the V-53 is engineered to withstand the harsh environments typical of welding shops, fabrication facilities, and industrial plants. Its robust design ensures longevity and resistance to corrosion, making it a dependable choice for managing the flow of oxygen, inert gases, and fuel gases.

One of the standout features of the V-53 is its flow capacity. Equipped with 3/4-inch NPT female threads on both the inlet and outlet, this valve is capable of handling high-volume gas flows required for heavy-duty cutting, heating, and welding applications. The large port size minimizes pressure drop across the valve, ensuring that downstream equipment such as regulators and flowmeters receive a consistent and adequate supply of gas. This is particularly important in centralized piping systems where maintaining stable pressure at the point of use is essential for process quality and safety.

Operation of the V-53 is straightforward and user-friendly. It features a large, ergonomic handwheel that allows for easy opening and closing, even when the operator is wearing heavy protective gloves. The internal mechanism is designed to provide a positive shut-off, preventing leaks and ensuring that the station can be safely isolated for maintenance or when not in use. Whether you are installing a new gas distribution system or upgrading existing station drops, the Victor V-53 Station Valve offers the performance and reliability professionals trust.

Key Applications

  • Manifold Systems: Acts as a main isolation valve or branch valve in gas headers.
  • Station Drops: Installed at the point of use to control gas supply to regulators and torches.
  • Industrial Piping: Suitable for general shut-off applications in low-to-medium pressure gas lines.

FAQ

The Victor V-53 valve features 3/4-inch NPT female threads on both the inlet and the outlet.

The V-53 station valve is generally rated for a maximum working pressure of 500 PSIG.

Yes, Victor station valves are typically cleaned for oxygen service, but always verify the specific packaging and labeling to ensure it meets oxygen cleanliness standards before installation.

The valve body is constructed from forged brass, providing excellent durability and corrosion resistance.

Yes, most station valves have a specific flow direction. Look for an arrow cast into the brass body indicating the direction of gas flow.

It is primarily used as a shut-off valve at station drops in a centralized gas piping system, allowing isolation of downstream equipment like regulators.

No, the V-53 is typically supported by the rigid piping it is installed into. Separate brackets or supports for the piping itself may be required.

Yes, provided the pressure does not exceed 15 PSIG (the safety limit for acetylene) and the valve materials are compatible. Brass is standard for acetylene service.
