At $81.31, it is the largest standard valve in the Castair BV series, sized for high-flow applications where a 1\" or 1-1\/4\" valve would create a restriction in the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere a 1-1\/2\" Valve Fits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 1-1\/2\" NPT shutoff valve is used at the discharge of large reciprocating or rotary screw compressors, at main headers in compressed air distribution systems, or at the inlet to large air receivers and storage tanks. At 1-1\/2\", this valve handles the full flow of high-capacity compressors without throttling the line. The full-flow (full-port) design means the bore matches the pipe ID — you lose no pressure across the valve when it is fully open.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e BV150\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-1\/2\" NPT Female (both ends)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full Flow Ball Valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrice:\u003c\/strong\u003e $81.31\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cast Air (Castair)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Accessories — Parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1-1\/2\" NPT Female Connections:\u003c\/strong\u003e Largest standard NPT size in the Castair BV series — fits high-capacity compressed air system plumbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Flow Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full-port ball bore matches pipe inside diameter — no pressure drop across the valve when open\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePositive Shutoff:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ball valve provides definitive isolation — fully open or fully closed, no position that leaks under pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sized for the discharge volumes of large reciprocating and rotary compressors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMain shutoff at discharge of large reciprocating or rotary screw compressors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeader isolation valves in compressed air distribution systems with 1-1\/2\" main lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShutoff before large air dryers, coalescers, or storage vessels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAny 1-1\/2\" NPT compressed air application requiring a positive manual shutoff valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBV Series — Full Range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCastair full-flow ball valves: BV25 (1\/4\", $11.86), BV100 (1\", $40.66), BV125 (1-1\/4\", $57.60), BV150 (1-1\/2\", $81.31). Match the valve to your line size. The BV150 is the correct choice for high-flow systems — using a smaller valve on a large compressor wastes the capacity the machine produces.
