0.1 This Indian Standard (Fourth Revision) was adopted by the IndianStandards Institution on 29 June 1984, after the draft finalized by theSanitary Appliances and Water Fittings Sectional Committee had beenapproved by the Civil Engineering Division Council.
0.2 This standard was first published in 1957 and subsequently revised in1964. 1971 and 1980. This revision of this standard has been taken up toincorporate changes found necessary in the light of the comments receivedon the standard. This includes modifications relating to materials forvarious components, modifications in the face-to-face dimensions offtangedvalves. A clause on sampling has also been added.
0.3 Except the gates for gate valves all other essential parts which aresubject to wear shall be interchangeable for the same size and type of thevalves.
0.4 With a view to guiding the purchaser, recomrnendations on the information to be supplied by a purchaser in an enquiry or order of the valves isgiven in Appendix A.
0.5 This standard contains clauses 7.1.4.2 and 12.1 which permit thepurchaser to use his option for selection to suit his requirements.
0.6 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of thisstandard is complied with, the final value.. observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS: 2-1960•.The number of significant places retained in the rounded ofT value shouldbe the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

IS : 778 - 1984
1. SCOPE
1.1 This standard covers requirements of copper alloy gate, globe andcheck valves of nominal sizes 8 to 100 mm suitable for working temperaturesup to 4SoC and non-shock working pressure up to 1·6 MPa, for waterworkspurposes.
2. TERMINOLOGY
2.0 For the purpose of this standard, the following definitions shall apply.
2.1 Gate Valve - A valve through which the flow of fluid is controlled bymeans of a gate in the form of a wedge or disc between the body endswhich are in line with each other; the gate is actuated by a stem whose axisis at right angles to that of the body ends. In the gate valves, the fluidpressure acts on one side of the gate and there is no change in the directionof ftow.
2.2 Globe Valve ( or Screwdown Stop Valve) - A valve having generallya spherical body in which the body ends are in line with each other and thedisc is lifted from or lowered on to the body seat by a stem whose axis isat right angles to that of the body ends. In globe valves, the pressure actson the underside of the valve disc and there is a change of direction of flowinside the valve body.
1.3 Anile Valve - A valve having generally a spherical body in which thebody ends are at right angles to each other and the disc is lifted from orlowered on the body seat by a stem whose axis is in line with that of onebody end.
2.4 Check Valve ( or Non-return Valve) - A valve which permits fluid toflow in one direction but checks all return flow. It is operated by pressurealone, having no external means of control. The flow is controlled bymeans of a disc raising and falling on to a seat with the fluid pressure ( liftcheck ); the return may sometimes be added by a spring ( spring loadedcheck). The flow may also be controlled by means ef a flap swinging upand down with pressure on to a seat ( swing check ).
2.5 End-to-End Dimension - The distance between the two planes perpendicular to the valve axis located at the extremities of the body endports of straight type screwed end valves.
2.6 Face-to-Face Dimension - The distance between the two planes perpendicular to the valve axis located at the extremities of the body endports of straight type flanged valves.
2.1 Centrc-to-Eni Dimension - The distance between the two planeslocated at the extremity of either body end port and perpendicular to itsaxis in the case of angle type screwed ends valves.
