Space-saving NRS Gate Valve for Safe Water Supply, Fire Protection, and Underground Waterworks

NRS Gate Valve(Hants Model HGN) is designed with a non-rising stem structure for space-saving installation in underground waterworks, utility vaults, and limited-clearance piping systems. During operation, the valve stem remains in place instead of moving upward like an OS&Y gate valve. Operated by a handwheel, this valve provides dependable shut-off control for fire protection, water supply, and municipal waterworks applications.

This model series is available in multiple certified options for different applications: a UL listed model for fire protection systems, an NSF-certified model for drinking water applications under NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 and NSF/ANSI 372, and a dual UL + NSF certified and AWWA-compliant model for multi-purpose municipal and commercial piping systems.

Key Features and Benefits of NRS Gate Valve

• Fully listed for high-pressure fire protection systems (UL) and certified lead-free for safe potable drinking water networks (NSF), offering an all-in-one valve solution that reduces crossover pipeline risks.
• The valve stem rotates internally rather than moving vertically during operation, making it the perfect choice for shallow trenches, buried water mains, or utility vaults with limited vertical clearance.
• Engineered and tested to conform strictly with AWWA C515 structural standards, ensuring robust durability, heavy-duty performance, and a long service life in demanding municipal waterworks.
• Coated internally and externally with high-grade, non-toxic powder coating. This protective layer prevents rust, eliminates chemical leaching, and guarantees clean water delivery while extending valve longevity.
• Equipped with a resilient wedge fully encapsulated in premium rubber, ensuring zero-leakage isolation and smooth operation even under high-pressure fire suppression and water supply conditions.
