Product Features & Advantages
Robust Threaded Connection for Easy Installation: The precision-cut NPT/BSP threads ensure a secure and leak-tight connection to existing piping systems. This design is particularly advantageous for retrofit projects, field modifications, and installations in compact spaces where welding is impractical or too costly, significantly reducing installation time and complexity.
Dual Flow Patterns for Maximum Process Flexibility: The availability of both L-Port and T-Port configurations allows a single valve type to serve multiple functions within your facility. The L-Port is perfect for selecting or diverting flow from one source to one of two destinations, while the T-Port enables the mixing of two incoming streams or the splitting of one incoming stream.
High-Performance Sealing and Safety: Engineered for reliability, the valve incorporates advanced PTFE (Teflon) seats and seals to ensure a bubble-tight shut-off across a wide range of temperatures and media. Safety is enhanced with standard features including a blow-out-proof stem, which prevents stem ejection under pressure, and a lockable handle for securing the valve position and ensuring process safety.
Durable Construction for Demanding Environments: The use of 316 stainless steel for all major wetted parts provides excellent resistance to a broad spectrum of corrosive chemicals, oxidizing agents, and atmospheric corrosion. This material selection, combined with precision machining, guarantees a long service life and reduces the total cost of ownership.
Compact and Service-Friendly Design: The valve's compact footprint is designed to fit into tight spaces without compromising performance. Furthermore, its field-serviceable design means that key wear components like seats and seals can be easily replaced using standard repair kits, minimizing system downtime and maintenance costs.

FAQ
Q: What is the functional difference between an L-Port and a T-Port in a three-way ball valve?
A: An L-Port (or 90-degree port) diverts flow. It can connect the common port to either of the two other ports but cannot connect all three simultaneously. It can also be used to shut off flow to all ports. A T-Port can connect all three ports simultaneously, allowing for mixing or splitting flows. However, a T-Port valve cannot achieve complete shut-off of one port while allowing flow between the other two.
Q: What pressure rating and materials can I expect?
A: This valve is typically constructed from CF8M (316) stainless steel body and ball, with PTFE seats and seals. It is pressure rated for up to 1000 PSI WOG (Water, Oil, Gas) at ambient temperature, making it suitable for a wide array of industrial applications.
Q: What thread standards do you offer, and what sizes are available?
A: We primarily manufacture valves with NPT (National Pipe Taper) threads, which is the North American standard. BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) threads are also available upon request. The standard size range is from ½ inch to 2 inches, covering the most common requirements in compact flow systems.
Q: Why choose a threaded connection over a welded one?
A: Threaded connections offer significant advantages in ease of installation, maintenance, and system modification. They do not require specialized welding equipment or skills, allow for easy disassembly for cleaning or repair, and are ideal for systems that may need future reconfiguration.
Q: Is this valve suitable for use with chemicals and hot water?
A: Yes. The 316 stainless steel construction offers excellent corrosion resistance to many chemicals, while the PTFE seats are chemically inert and can handle temperatures encountered in hot water systems and many industrial processes. Always confirm the chemical compatibility of the valve materials with your specific media.
