Multi-port ball valves provide a variety of solutions for fluid control applications, such as 3-port ball valves and 4-port ball valves. A 3-port ball valve means that a ball valve has 3 openings, 1 inlet and 2 outlets. In this article, we will give you a brief introduction to the 3-port ball valve, hoping to help you choose the model.
According to the style of the actuator, 3 way ball valve can be divided into electric 3 way ball valve and pneumatic 3 way ball valve.
It is widely used in wastewater treatment, irrigation, oil and gas, paper and pulp, food and beverage, brewery, etc.
Advantages of 3-port ball valve
The function of the 3-way ball valve is mainly to circulate, cut off and change the direction of the fluid.
● It can completely close the valve
● It can change the flow direction of the medium
● It can divide the medium into two independent directions
Types of three-way ball valves
Three-way ball valves can be divided into T port and L port.
T port: The main function is to change the flow direction of the medium or divide the medium into two independent directions. The T port ball valve is also called a diverter valve because it allows the medium to flow in from one inlet and then flow out from the other two outlets. At the same time, it is also called a mixing valve because it allows the medium to flow in from two inlets and then flow out from one outlet, which serves the purpose of mixing the medium.
L port: The main function is to change the flow direction of the medium.
How does 3-way ball valve work?
This video will simply show you the working status of the three-way ball valve, hope it can help you. If you need more information, please consult us! We are happy to show you how the ball valve works.
The difference between two-way ball valve and three-way ball valve
The two-way ball valve has only two ports, which are for transport and shut-off. However, the three-way ball valve has three ports. In addition to being able to circulate and cut off, it can also mix, diverge and change the direction of medium flow. Provides a variety of solutions for circulation control.
Summary
Ball valves are currently one of the most widely used industrial valves on the market. If you need more information and need to know how it will help your business obtain more business opportunities, please contact COVNA! We will try our best to help you solve the problem.
