When replacing Tyco DC98 and RP98 valves with Tyco DC03 and RP03 models, it's helpful to know the relative lengths to assess the installation's complexity. This is also helpful when its hard to alter the fixed pipework attached to the valve.
The lengths provided below are for the base valve, excluding couplings (the portion easily removed by unscrewing). *The old unions will fit the new valve body threads.
Note: These measurements are approximate and should be verified on-site.
Size | Old Valve | Old Length (mm) | New Model | New Length (mm) | Length Difference (mm) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
15mm to 25mm | DC98 | 200 | DC03 | 193 | -7 (DC03 shorter) |
15mm to 25mm | RP98 | 225 | RP03 | 193 | -32 (RP03 shorter) |
32mm to 50mm | DC98 | 250 | DC03 | 263 | +13 (DC03 longer) |
32mm to 50mm | RP98 | 283 | RP03 | 263 | -20 (RP03 shorter) |
