What Is a 3-Way Ball Valve?
A 3 way ball valve is a type of valve used to control the flow of fluids. It is a simple device that consists of a ball with three ports. The ball is rotated, so the ports align with the ports on the valve body. This allows the fluid to flow through the valve and into the appropriate outlet.
How Does A 3-Way Ball Valve Work?
The valve works by turning a handle (mechanical valves) or activating an actuator (electric ball valves), which rotates the ball inside of the body of the valve. The rotating action aligns the channels with the inlets and outlets of the valve to direct flow.
What Do You Need 3-Way Ball Valve For?
One of the best parts of a 3-way valve is its versatility. They can perform a lot of different functions. These include:
