Three-way stainless steel ball valve

Product Overview

The 3-way stainless steel ball valve is a versatile valve designed to meet the needs of industrial applications requiring corrosion resistance and sanitary conditions. The valve is constructed from high quality stainless steel materials, specifically 304 or 316 stainless steel, ensuring excellent resistance to a wide range of corrosive media and harsh environments. The three-way design provides three ports for diverting, mixing or flow path selection in piping systems. These ball valves are widely used in food processing, pharmaceutical, chemical and water treatment industries that require high levels of sanitation and corrosion resistance.

The valve's three-way ball construction allows for efficient fluid redirection, both mixing fluids from two inlets and diverting flow between two outlets, providing flexibility for a variety of applications. The stainless steel construction is ideal for handling corrosive chemicals, food-grade products and aseptic fluid systems, ensuring durability and reliability even under harsh operating conditions.

Product Features

Stainless Steel Construction: Constructed of 304 or 316 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance, ideal for corrosive chemical environments or sanitary applications. 316 stainless steel offers enhanced chloride resistance, ideal for applications involving brine, chlorine or acidic media.

Three-Way Ball Valve Design: The valve is available in a three-way ball valve configuration in either an L or T design. the L design is ideal for diverting flow, while the T design allows for mixing or selective flow between the inlet and outlet. the L design is ideal for diverting flow and the T design allows for mixing or selective flow between the inlet and outlet.

Hygienic design: Smooth interior surfaces ensure that the valve is easy to clean and maintain, which is critical in industries where cleanliness and sanitation are important. FDA-approved materials and design make them suitable for food processing and pharmaceutical applications.

Durability and longevity: Stainless steel bodies are resistant to rust, corrosion, and scaling, providing long service life even in harsh environments. Its durability ensures minimum maintenance requirements and longer performance.

Leak-free performance: Equipped with advanced sealing technologies such as PTFE, PFA, or FPM (Viton), leak-free operation is assured even under high pressure or high temperature conditions. Temperature and pressure resistance: Suitable for medium to high temperature applications, they can withstand temperatures up to 392°F (200°C), depending on seal material and pressure conditions. Effective operation in pressure ranges from 150 psi to 1000 psi, depending on size and specification.

Product Advantages

CORROSION RESISTANCE: Stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it ideal for use in applications with corrosive chemicals, acids, alkalis, and salt water.

Hygienic and easy to clean: Designed with hygiene standards in mind, the smooth internal surfaces and stainless steel construction make cleaning and maintenance easy and reduce the risk of contamination. Ideal for food processing, pharmaceutical and other industries with strict hygiene requirements.

Flow Control Flexibility: Three-way valves offer a wide range of flow management, including flow steering, blending, or selection, allowing for a wide range of process configurations.
L-ports are for simple flow diversion, while T-ports are for more complex flow mixing.

Leak-proof operation: The valve utilizes high-quality PTFE, PFA, or FPM seals to ensure reliable, leak-tight performance even under severe conditions.
Cost-effective and durable: Compared to valves made of less durable materials, stainless steel valves offer a longer service life, low maintenance requirements and resistance to wear, providing excellent value over the long term.

Customization: The valves are available in a variety of sizes and configurations that can be customized for specific applications and media types.
