Stainless Steel 3way Ball Valve


1.Stainless Steel 3way Ball Valve Structural Characteristics:

The three-way/four-way ball valve boasts reliable sealing and a smooth flow channel. This ensures the accuracy of its opening and closing operations, with only a small fluid pressure loss and a stable flow channel maintained throughout. Based on the different forms of the flow channel, this type of valve can be categorized into the "Y" pattern three-way ball valve, the "L" pattern three-way ball valve, the "T" pattern three-way ball valve, and the "LL" pattern four-way ball valve.


"Y" Pattern Three-way Ball Valve (q42 Type)

The flow channel of this valve takes on a "Y" pattern. It can effectively enable the switch from service condition 1 to service condition 2. Primarily, it is utilized for changing the flow direction of pipelines configured in the "Y" pattern.


"L" Pattern Three-way Ball Valve (q44 Floating Type, Q49 Trunnion Type)

The "L" pattern three-way ball valve is designed to switch the flow direction of the medium within the pipeline. It can connect two flow channels that are perpendicular to each other. It should be noted that the ordinary "L" pattern floating three-way ball valve might not be suitable for certain service conditions, and users need to pay special attention to this when making their selection.


  • High-quality Materials: The main components such as the valve body and ball are usually made of stainless steel materials like 304 and 316, which have good corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance and can work stably for a long time.

  • Reliable Sealing: High-performance sealing materials like PTFE are adopted to achieve zero leakage, and the sealing performance remains stable under various media and temperatures.

  • Easy Operation: The opening and closing operation of the valve can be completed by simply rotating the handle by 90 degrees. It can also be equipped with various actuators to realize automatic control.

  • Compact Structure: The overall design is compact, with a small size and light weight, which is convenient for installation and maintenance and saves space.

  • Wide Application Range: It can be applied to various media such as water, steam, gas, oil products, acids and alkalis, meeting the needs of different industries.


2.Stainless Steel 3way Ball Valve Product Specifications

  • Size Range: 1/4"~4"

  • Pressure Rating: PN10~PN64

  • Temperature Range: -20℃~200℃

  • Connection Methods: Common connection methods include threaded connection, flange connection, etc., which can be selected according to the actual pipeline system.


3.Stainless Steel 3way Ball Valve Application Fields

  • Chemical Industry: It is used to control the transportation of various chemical media, such as acid, alkali and salt solutions, to prevent corrosion and pollution.

  • Petroleum and Natural Gas Industry: In the processes of oil and gas exploration, transportation and processing, it is used to control the flow direction and flow rate of oil and gas to ensure the safety and stability of production.

  • Water Treatment Industry: It is used in the processes of water purification, filtration and transportation to ensure the normal operation of water quality and water supply systems.

  • Food and Beverage Industry: It is used for fluid control in the production, processing and packaging processes of food and beverages and complies with hygiene standards.

  • Pharmaceutical Industry: In the process of drug production, it is used to control the transportation and mixing of liquid medicine to ensure drug quality.

  • Shipbuilding Industry: It is used to control the systems of seawater, fresh water and fuel oil on ships and adapt to the corrosiveness of the marine environment.

  • General Industry: For example, in industries such as papermaking, printing and dyeing, and electric power, it is used for the control and distribution of various fluids.


4.Stainless Steel 3way Ball Valve Installation and Maintenance

  • Installation: Before installation, check whether the appearance and interior of the valve are damaged or have impurities, and make sure the valve is in the closed state. During installation, it should be correctly installed according to the flow direction of the pipeline and the inlet and outlet directions of the valve. Pay attention to the firmness and tightness of the connection.

  • Maintenance: Regularly check the sealing performance and operation flexibility of the valve, and promptly clean the impurities and dirt inside the valve. For valves that have not been used for a long time, the opening and closing operations should be carried out regularly to prevent the valve from getting stuck. If leakage or other abnormal situations are found in the valve, it should be repaired or replaced in time.


5.Stainless Steel 3way Ball Valve Precautions

  • During the use process, avoid the valve from being subjected to severe impacts and collisions to prevent damage to the sealing surface and internal parts of the valve.

  • For media with high temperature, high pressure or strong corrosiveness, appropriate valve materials and sealing materials should be selected according to the specific working conditions to ensure the safety and reliability of the valve.

  • During installation, pay attention to the flow direction mark of the valve to ensure that the flow direction of the medium is consistent with that of the valve. Otherwise, it may affect the sealing performance and service life of the valve.
