Corner ball valve with a lever 3/4" MF for water, red handle – IVAR.6782
Code: 6782R080Product detailed description
Code 6782R080 denotes a corner ball valve IVAR.6782 with a size of 3/4" and an external – internal thread connection (MF). The valve turns the flow by 90°, can fully close it, and thanks to the union, it can be connected or disconnected without rotating the entire valve. The operating lever is red.
What it is used for
- pipelines for cold and hot water and compressed air
- installations in households, industrial facilities and agriculture
- non-aggressive media up to +120 °C, without presence of steam
- drinking water – the valve has a certificate
Construction
- body made of nickel-plated brass CW617N, brass ball and stem
- ball sealing made of PTFE, stem sealed with Viton and EPDM O-rings
- union with brass nut and spigot, spigot O-ring made of EPDM
- full-flow design, flow diameter Ø 20 mm
- double extended threads according to EN ISO 228/1
- lever made of painted aluminium, rotation range 90°
Installation and operation
The valve is delivered in a fully open position. When tightening the connection, hold the valve body against the direction of pipe rotation to prevent damage. Use Teflon tape, string or thread, or sealing paste or gel on the threads – hemp is not recommended by the manufacturer. Keep the valve fully open or fully closed and rotate it through the full range once or twice a quarter to prevent dirt from settling on the seals.
The same valve with a blue lever has code 6774R080 (type IVAR.6774); both types are produced in sizes from 1/2" to 1".

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the blue and red versions of this valve?
According to the technical data sheet, types IVAR.6782 and IVAR.6774 have the same dimensions, materials and operating parameters. The only difference is the color of the operating lever.
What is a valve with a union used for?
The union with a nut and spigot allows the valve to be connected to the pipeline or disconnected later without the need to rotate the entire valve.
Can I regulate the flow with this valve?
No. The ball valve is intended only for full opening or full closing, and should not be operated in an intermediate position.
How should the valve be positioned when the system is drained before freezing?
If the system is drained due to the risk of freezing, leave the ball valve slightly open at a 45° position.
