About this asset

Engineered for plumbing and hydronic loops, this ball valve Revit family features an inline bronze body with a green manual lever handle. The model depicts a standard one-inch manual ball valve designed for fluid isolation. It showcases a cylindrical cast metal valve body with threaded end connections, stepped collars, and an integrated stem housing. Atop the stem, a hex retaining nut secures an angled flat lever handle, finished in protective green coating. The offset handle design provides clearance over insulation during manual quarter-turn operation. Clean geometric modeling defines the cylindrical port geometry, hex flats, and mounting hardware, providing accurate mechanical clearance envelopes without excessive polygon complexity.

The download is a 471 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Load the RFA component directly into your Revit mechanical or plumbing template. Insert the valve inline along compatible one-inch pipe runs where pipe connectors snap to system centerlines. Verify system classification settings, fluid temperatures, and pressure drop parameters in family properties. Align the valve body parallel to adjacent piping and check handle rotation sweep against structural clearances or wall penetrations before detailing.

Essential for commercial plant rooms, residential utility closets, and institutional boiler rooms, this inline valve suits domestic water distribution, HVAC chilled water loops, and heating manifolds. Engineers specify it during mechanical coordination, plant room clash detection, and construction documentation phases. It pairs naturally with copper pipework, circulator pumps, pressure gauges, and strainer assemblies in comprehensive mechanical models.
