The Brass Lockable Ball Valve with Swivel Nut NR-L051 from Raising is engineered for hassle-free water meter integration—its standout features are the swivel nut design and nickel-plated brass construction. The swivel nut simplifies installation and removal, eliminating the need to twist pipes during setup, while the nickel plating enhances corrosion resistance and aesthetics. Like other Raising valves, it locks in open/closed positions to prevent tampering, operates at 16 bar pressure (-20°C to 120°C), and comes in sizes 1/2"x3/4" and 3/4"x3/4" with BSP/NPT threads. It is ideal for water meter systems, HVAC, and commercial plumbing, where easy maintenance and security are top priorities.
The swivel nut allows the valve to rotate independently of the pipe, making it easy to align with water meters or existing piping. This reduces the risk of pipe damage during installation and speeds up maintenance (e.g., replacing a water meter), saving time for plumbers and property managers.
The base brass (CW617N, HPB59-1, etc.) is coated with nickel, which adds a sleek finish and extra resistance to wear and moisture. This is especially useful for outdoor or damp environments (e.g., water meter boxes) where rust and corrosion are common.
The valve’s locking function secures water flow to/from meters, preventing tampering that could lead to inaccurate readings or water theft. This is critical for utility companies and commercial properties seeking to protect resource usage and billing accuracy.
The quarter-turn ball mechanism ensures quick, smooth opening/closing and precise flow regulation. This keeps water meter readings accurate by maintaining consistent flow, avoiding fluctuations that could skew data.
With BSP and NPT threads and sizes 1/2"x3/4" and 3/4"x3/4", the NR-L051 fits most standard water meters and residential/commercial pipes. No additional adapters are needed for most installations.
Utility companies and property managers prefer the NR-L051 for water meter setups. The swivel nut simplifies meter replacement, while the lockable design prevents tampering—ensuring fair billing and reducing revenue loss from unauthorized water use.
In heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, the valve controls water flow to units (e.g., air conditioners, boilers). Its easy maintenance and corrosion resistance keep HVAC systems running efficiently, minimizing downtime for homes or offices.
High-traffic commercial spaces (e.g., restaurants, office buildings) benefit from the valve’s durability and security. It resists frequent use, prevents accidental shutoffs, and ensures consistent water supply for sinks, dishwashers, and restrooms.
For homes with external water meters, the NR-L051’s swivel nut makes DIY installation feasible. Its nickel plating resists outdoor elements, and the locking function adds security against tampering by third parties.
It fits most standard residential and commercial water meters. We recommend checking your meter’s inlet/outlet size (1/2" or 3/4") to match the valve’s 1/2"x3/4" or 3/4"x3/4" options. Contact Raising for custom compatibility checks.
Nickel plating improves corrosion resistance (critical for damp areas), enhances the valve’s appearance, and reduces wear from frequent use—extending its lifespan compared to unplated brass valves.
