Zurn Wilkins OS&Y Gate Valve: Critical Control for Fire Protection & Plumbing

The Zurn Wilkins OS&Y (Outside Screw and Yoke) Gate Valve is a robust and reliable control solution engineered specifically for crucial fire protection and high-performance plumbing systems. This resilient wedge valve provides a clear visual indication of its open or closed status, which is vital for maintaining the readiness of fire sprinkler and standpipe systems during routine inspections and critical emergencies, ensuring the safety of property and lives.

• Outside Screw and Yoke (OS&Y) Design: Features an external threaded stem that rises and falls with the gate, offering an immediate and unmistakable visual indicator of the valve's position without requiring disassembly.
• Versatile Connections: Available in both Grooved x Grooved and Flanged x Grooved configurations, ensuring seamless and efficient integration with standardized piping systems for both new installations and retrofits.
• Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-strength ductile iron with stainless steel internal components and stems. Many models boast an AWWA-compliant fusion-bond epoxy finish, providing superior corrosion resistance and enhanced mechanical strength for long-term performance.
• Resilient Wedge Technology: Utilizes a barrier that moves perpendicularly to the water path, guaranteeing a leak-proof seal when closed and optimal flow with minimal friction when open, crucial for system efficiency.
• High-Pressure Performance: Engineered to confidently handle a maximum working water pressure of 250 PSI and a hydrostatic test pressure of 500 PSI, ensuring unwavering reliability in demanding industrial and commercial environments.
• Compliance and Approvals: UL Listed, C-UL Listed, and FM Approved. These valves are rigorously built to meet stringent industry standards, including NFPA, AWWA C515, and low-lead requirements, ensuring potable water safety and regulatory adherence.

By providing precise water flow control and immediate status verification, these valves help safeguard property and lives with unwavering confidence. The robust ductile iron body and corrosion-resistant internals offer a long-lasting, low-maintenance solution that actively prevents accidental system shutdowns and reduces the need for frequent servicing. Whether deployed in critical commercial fire suppression systems or vital industrial water lines, these Zurn Wilkins OS&Y valves deliver the certified reliability and performance essential for critical infrastructure safety and peace of mind.
