VESDA VP-BV — ball valve for VESDA aspirating smoke detection sampling pipe, supplied 10 per box.
An aspirating network only performs as designed once each branch is balanced. Fitted at a branch takeoff, a ball valve lets the commissioning technician shut or throttle one leg while airflow and transport time are measured on the rest of the pipe, and lets a section be isolated later for cleaning or rework without dropping the detector offline. Xtralis catalogs it inside the VESDA Pipes and Fittings range with the pipe, couplings and elbows.
- Xtralis ordering description: Ball Valve, 10 per box

Order by the box, not the valve — a line item of 2 is 20 valves. Xtralis marks the CPVC items in its fittings table with an asterisk and does not mark VP-BV, so confirm body material and joint type before solvent cementing.
