Product Overview

The Stainless Steel 3-Way Ball Valve is a high-performance valve designed to accurately control fluid flow in piping systems. Constructed of high quality stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance and durability, this valve is ideal for applications involving corrosive fluids or sanitary requirements. The tee design allows the flow to be diverted, mixed, or both, providing the flexibility to direct or combine multiple streams of fluid. Commonly used in industries such as pharmaceutical, food and beverage, chemical processing and water treatment, this valve ensures superior performance in a wide range of operating conditions.

Available in a variety of configurations, including L-ports (for flow diversion) and T-ports (for mixing or diverting flow between three outlets), the 3-way ball valve provides flexible flow control for a variety of applications. It can handle a wide range of operating pressures and temperatures and is suitable for both high and low pressure systems.

Product Characteristics

HIGH QUALITY STAINLESS STEEL CONSTRUCTION: Constructed of 304 or 316L stainless steel, the valve ensures superior corrosion and oxidation resistance even in corrosive or wet environments. Stainless steel bodies also provide strength and durability, making them ideal for long-term operation in industrial systems.

Three-way design (L-port and T-port): The valve features a three-way ball design for flexible flow management:
L-Port: Used to divert flow between two outlets.
T-Port: Allows mixing or diverting of flow between three connections, suitable for combining or separating multiple streams of fluid.

Compact and Efficient: The valve's compact design requires minimal installation space, making it ideal for space-constrained applications.
Efficient flow paths ensure minimal voltage drop and reduce the potential for system inefficiencies.

CORROSION RESISTANCE: Stainless steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance, making it ideal for handling corrosive chemicals, acids or sanitary fluid systems. Excellent rust and scale resistance in both wet and dry conditions.

Precise Flow Control: The full flow path ball valve design minimizes turbulence and maintains smooth flow paths, allowing effective control of fluid flow in a variety of processes.
The tee design allows precise control of mixing and diverting flows, ensuring the flexibility needed for process control.

Multiple end connections: The valve is available with threaded, flanged or butt-welded connections for a wide range of piping systems. This flexibility ensures that the valve can be easily integrated into existing systems, regardless of the type of connection used.

Leak-free sealing: The valves are equipped with high-performance seals (e.g. PTFE, PFA or Viton) that provide leak-free sealing even at high pressures and temperatures. This ensures reliable long-term performance with minimal maintenance.

Wide Pressure and Temperature Range: The valve is designed to handle a wide range of pressures (up to 1,500 psi) and temperatures (from -196°C to 250°C), making it suitable for a wide variety of applications in both low-pressure and high-pressure systems.

Product Advantages

Excellent corrosion resistance: Made of stainless steel to ensure excellent resistance to rust, scale and corrosion, prolonging service life and reducing the need for frequent replacement, especially in systems handling corrosive or aggressive media.

Application Flexibility: The valve's three-way design (L- and T-patterns) is ideal for applications that require diverting or mixing multiple media, providing unmatched flow control flexibility.

DURABILITY AND RELIABILITY: Stainless steel construction and high quality seals ensure that the valve operates reliably for long periods of time, even in harsh industrial environments. Its robust design minimizes the risk of system failure and leakage.

Low Maintenance: With its durable construction and leak-proof seals, the valve is virtually maintenance-free throughout its service life, saving maintenance and downtime costs for industrial systems.

SPACE SAVING DESIGN: The compact design of the 3-way ball valve is ideal for tight space applications and reduces the need for additional space in size-constrained systems.

EASY INTEGRATION AND CUSTOMIZATION: The valve can be easily integrated into different systems and is available with threaded, flanged or butt-welded connection options. It is also available in a variety of sizes, pressure ratings and temperature ranges that can be customized to meet specific needs.
