Is this a balancing valve?
(OP)
Hello all,
Does anyone know the purpose of the valve in the attached photograph? Who is the manufacturer?
The owner has no information at all. No tags, no stampings that make sense.
Thanks,
Ken

I think it is a Filter or Strainer.
The "Wing Nut" on the top would be to remove and replace (or clean) the cartridge.

Maybe a backflow preventer of some sort. Just another possibility

The owner's process people just called me. They say it is a balancing valve. Never saw one quite like this one.
