3 way threaded ball valve
Product Overview
The three-way threaded ball valve is a valve product. It has a unique structure and wide application.
It controls the flow direction of the medium by rotating the internal ball.
The channel design on the ball can realize the diversion, confluence and flow direction switching of the medium.
Working Principle
The working principle of the three-way threaded ball valve is based on the rotation of the ball.
When the channel on the ball is aligned with the corresponding channel on the valve body, the medium can pass smoothly.
By rotating the ball, the relative position of the ball channel and the valve body channel is changed.
This realizes the control of the flow direction of the medium.
For example, when the ball channel is T-shaped, the medium can be diverted.
When the ball channel is linear, the medium can be merged.
Functional Description of L-type and T-type
L-type three-way threaded ball valve
Its function is that it can realize the switching of two media.
It allows one medium to flow and the other two to be cut off.
The application scenario is that it is commonly used for switching the flow direction of the medium.
Such as in a system where two different media need to be used alternately.
T-type three-way threaded ball valve
Its function is that it can connect three channels to each other.
Or it can connect two of them.
This achieves the diversion, confluence or change of flow direction of the medium.
The application scenario is that it is suitable for working conditions where the medium needs to be diverted or merged.
Such as distributing or collecting the medium in a multi-channel pipeline system.
Difference between L-type and T-type
Flow control capability
The L-type is mainly used to switch the flow direction.
The T-type focuses more on diversion and confluence.
Channel connection method
The L-type usually has two channels connected at right angles.
The T-type has three channels connected in a T-shape.
Application occasions
The L-type is suitable for relatively simple flow direction switching requirements.
The T-type performs better in complex multi-media distribution and collection systems.
Product features
Compact structural design
It has a small footprint.
It is easy to install in limited space.
It has a relatively light weight.
It is easy to carry and install.
Good sealing performance
High-quality sealing materials are used.
This ensures that the medium can be effectively prevented from leaking even under high pressure and high temperature.
Flexible flow control
It can easily realize the flow of the medium in different directions.
This meets the needs of complex pipeline systems.
Low torque operation
The torque required to rotate the ball is small.
The operation is easy and labor-saving.
Corrosion resistance
Stainless steel and other materials can be selected.
It has excellent corrosion resistance.
It is suitable for a variety of media.
Technical parameters
- Working pressure: Usually up to 300LB.
- Working temperature: The adaptability range is between -29 – 300℃.
- Connection method: Threaded connection.
- Valve body material: Stainless steel, carbon steel, etc.
- Ball material: Stainless steel, alloy, etc.
Use scenario
Industrial pipeline system
In pipelines in chemical, petroleum, natural gas and other industries.
It is used to control the flow direction and distribution of different media.
HVAC system
It is used to achieve the diversion and confluence of hot and cold water.
It adjusts the indoor temperature.
Water supply and drainage system
It is used to control the direction and flow of water flow.
Energy delivery system
For example, in gas delivery.
It is used to ensure the reasonable distribution and control of gas.
Installation and maintenance
During installation, ensure that the valve is in the closed state.
Install it in the correct direction and position.
Check the sealing performance regularly.
Replace the seal in time if there is a leak.
Clean the ball and the inner cavity of the valve body.
Prevent impurities from accumulating and affecting the valve performance.
In short, the three-way threaded ball valve, with its excellent performance and flexible control function.
It provides a strong guarantee for the safe and efficient operation of the pipeline system in many fields.
