Anybody knows what kind of valve is this?
(OP)
Dear respected valve experts,
Does anyone knows what kind of valve is this. Seems like there is a drain (nut) at the bottom.

Service is condensate class 300#.
Is this interchangeable with standard gate or globe?
Thank you,
Regards,
D

Any markings?
Diameter, pressure rating and length of the valve between the edge of the flange would help.
Looks like some sort of gate valve but difficult to see from one photo.
The flange on the valve look thicker than the connecting flanges. Any idea why?
A bit of a strange set up....

Sorry cannot accommodate extra end view and there is no marking visible. No clue why the flange is thicker.
below is the other side of the valve
I think the supposed to be drain is an integrated ball valve. There is a threaded plug installed at the bottom (we've never used this feature as it is considered as leakage path).

Also looks like it hasn't moved in a long time.....
does it actually do anything?? I would just replace it with a bit of pipe.

The double ported was popular at one time as it balances the forces on the plugs (flow tends to close one and open the other). I don't know of anyone still making that style manual valve, though it is very common with control valves.
