RB01 Series Ball Valves
Parker’s RB01 Ball Valves are used as service valves
in split air conditioning and heat-pump systems or in
commercial refrigeration applications. The valves isolate
sections of a system for servicing and provide a means
for charging refrigerant into a unit.
Application
• Residential and commercial air conditioning and
heat pumps
• Commercial refrigeration
Base Product Part Number
RB01
Features and Benefits
• Full-flow design provides low-pressure drop for
maximum system performance.
• One quarter-turn, low-torque actuation allows the
valve to be open or closed providing simple and
easy servicing.
• Use of a standard crescent wrench provides simple
quarter-turn actuation.
• Copper-sweat connections provide basic ends for
brazing and eliminate the need for flux, simplifying
the installation process.
• Brass body and copper-connection tubes virtually
eliminate corrosion-related problems.
Technical Information
• A unique copper-forming process is used to
captivate the valve ball, seals, and spring,
eliminating potential leak paths and providing
consistent and superior sealing.
• Pad and post-mounting are available to provide
additional support to the valve, if necessary.
• Multiple end-configurations are available, along
with assemblies, to meet the unique needs of a
unit.

Reliable
A unique copper forming process is used to
captivate the valve ball, seals and spring,
eliminating potential leak paths and
providing consistent and superior sealing.
Simple On/Off
One quarter-turn, low-torque actuation
allows the valve to be fully open or closed
providing simple and easy servicing.
Easy Installation
Copper sweat connections simplify the
installation process (eliminating the need
for flux and flux-residue cleanup), saving
time and money. Pad and post mounting
is available if added support is needed.
Corrosion Resistant
Brass body and copper connection
tubes virtually eliminate corrosion
related problems
.
Value-Added
Valves can also be supplied as fully tested
subassemblies, complete with custom bent copper
tubing and other required system components. This
translates to fewer braze joints, simplified assembly,
and a lower installed cost.
Efficient
Full-flow design provides low-
pressure drop for maximum
