Stainless Steel 3 Way Ball Valve L-Port
A Stainless Steel 3 Way Ball Valve L-Port is a multi-port flow control valve designed with an L-shaped ball bore that allows fluid flow between two selected ports while shutting off the third. Constructed from high-quality stainless steels such as SS304, SS316, or SS316L, it provides excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical strength for demanding applications. This valve is commonly used for flow diversion, mixing, or distribution in process industries including chemical processing, oil & gas, water treatment, pharmaceuticals, and food & beverage systems.
Key Features of Stainless Steel 3 Way Ball Valve L-Port
- L-Port Flow Control: Directs flow between two outlets or isolates one outlet while connecting the other.
- Durable Stainless Steel Construction: Resistant to corrosion, high pressure, and aggressive media.
- Compact Multi-Port Design: Eliminates the need for multiple valves and fittings.
- Quarter-Turn Operation: Enables fast and reliable switching.
- Leak-Tight Sealing: Equipped with PTFE, RPTFE, or PEEK seats for zero-leakage performance.
- Easy Automation: Compatible with pneumatic and electric actuators for remote operation.
- Versatile Installation: Flanged, threaded, or welded end connections available.
- Long Service Life: Engineered for repeated operations in industrial environments.
