        • Uses:
        • Used mixing valves or as diverter or selector valves.
        • Description:
        • ● Three Way Threaded Ball Valves have 3 Ports and come in two configuration styles, the L-Port and the T-Port.
        • Advantages:
        • ● An Easy way to select flow from 1 of 2 sources or to divert flow to 1 of 2 outlets.
        •  An easy way to combine flow from 2 sources.
        • One Item replaces a Tee fitting and multiple ball valves, which would be needed to do the same function.
        • Operation:
        • ● They are easy to use, with a quarter turn of the handle flow can be diverted from one port to another.
        • Reduced Port:
        • ● A standard port also called a reduced port, is standard for a 3 way ball valve.
        • Threaded:
        • 3 way threaded ball valves will connect easily to any application with threads.
        • Handles:
        • Lever Style locking handles.
        • Complete with mounting pad.
        • Stem:
        • Blowout Proof.
        • Material:
        • ● Reliable and made from long lasting stainless steel 316, these valve work well in most applications.

     

     Different Types:  

     

        • ● 3 way ball valves are used to are used to divert flow.
        • ● They have 3 ports and come in two Styles "L-Port" and "T-Port", depending on how the Ball is drilled.
        • ● The L-Port has two openings drilled at 90 degree's
        • ● The T-Port has 3 openings drilled in a T-Shape.

     

    - The "L-Port" - The Diverter Valve (Input Selector)

     

        • ● Allows for flow to occur between two ports in an L-shaped formation.
        • ● Also known as a diverter valve because they are most often used to divert flow form a common inlet into one of two outlets.
        • ● Can also function as an input selector for a pump switching between one of two sources.
        • ● They can shut off all flow.

     

    - The "T-Port"- The Mixing Valve

     

        • ● Allows for flow to occur between any two ports as well as all three ports simultaneously in a T-Formation.
        • ● You can direct flow to either of the 2 ports just like the L-Port, and you can have flow through all ports simultaneously. 
        • ● Also called Mixing Valves because they are widely used to mix the flow coming from two sources.
        • ● They cannot shut off all flow. (They can allow all ports to flow like a Tee Fitting.)
