Parker's B Series 3-way ball valves can be used as diverting or selecting valves for fluids in process or instrumentation applications.
In the standard version, the 3-way diverting valve allows the medium to flow in through the bottom port and distributes it through two outlets. Equipped with spring-loaded seats, the 3-way valve can be used as a selecting valve, with the medium flowing in through one of the two side inlets and out through the bottom outlet.
Connection options include NPT internal thread, NPT external thread, UltraSeal and VacuSeal, as well as the assembled A-Lok and CPI compression fittings.
