Sanitary 3 Way Ball Valve — Manual, L-Port or T-Port, Tri-Clamp, 316 (MV-3N)

Sanitary 3 Way Ball Valve — Manual, 316, Tri-Clamp

A 衛生級三通球閥, hand operated. 316 stainless steel, polished, Tri-Clamp ends, 1/2″ to 2″, rated 1000 WOG. Turn the lever and the flow goes somewhere else: no air line, no wiring, no PLC. You will also see this valve called a hygienic 3-way ball valve, a 3 way sanitary ball valve or a tri clamp 3 way ball valve. Same valve.

316 is what we stock. 304 we can make to order.

有兩項因素決定這款閥門是否適合您，而這兩項因素都必須在訂購時決定，而非事後才決定。. L型端口或T型端口, 以及 哪個座位. Both port types are stock builds, and both are explained below.

L型接頭還是T型接頭？這正是人們常選錯閥門的地方

從外觀上看，它們完全一模一樣。但內部，穿過球體的孔洞形狀不同，而且它們的功能也截然不同。.

One structural point worth knowing before you specify a T-port: in every handle position it keeps at least two ports connected.

如果您不確定您的線路需要哪一種，, 請說明該閥門的功能，我們會告訴您. 我們只需一封電子郵件，就能幫您省下一個閥門。.

座椅決定了您的耐熱極限

無論如何，閥座都是 PTFE 材質。不同之處在於它包裹了球體多少部分。.

這是一個真正的權衡，而非行銷上的選擇。. If you are running product that must not be trapped, take the fully encapsulated seat and live with 80 °C. If your line runs hot, take the semi-encapsulated seat. Send us the medium and the working temperature, and we will specify the seat.

規格

Taking It Apart for Cleaning

Undo the clamps and the valve comes off the line. Undo the body bolts and it comes apart in your hands: ball out, seats out, everything you need to inspect and swab. Nothing needs cutting, and nothing needs a special tool.

The fully encapsulated seat is the one that matters here. By filling the space around the ball it leaves the bore smooth, with no crevice for product to lodge in and no pocket for a swab to miss.

歸屬之處

• Switching a line between two destinations (L-port). One inlet, two outlets: tank 1 or tank 2, filler A or filler B, product line or return loop. One valve and one 90° turn does what two shut-off valves and a tee would do, with fewer fittings and one movement instead of two.
• Combining two feed streams into one line (T-port). Two ingredient lines meeting before a mixing tank or a common header, blended in the pipe instead of merged by hand.
• Bypass for maintenance (L-port). Route the line around a section that has to come out for service, then switch it back, without shutting the whole run down and without a second operator remembering to close a second valve.
• Sampling point on a process line. The third port takes product to a sample outlet while the main run keeps going.
• Product changeover on viscous or crystallising lines (L-port, fully encapsulated seat). Chocolate, syrups, sauces and concentrates collect in the space around a standard ball and dry or crystallise there. Filling that space is what makes changeover on these products manageable.

常見問題

What is a sanitary 3 way ball valve?

A three-port ball valve in polished 316 stainless with Tri-Clamp ends, built so it can be taken off the line and opened for cleaning. The ball is drilled either L-shaped, to send one inlet to one of two outlets, or T-shaped, to feed two ports at once. It does the work of a tee plus two shut-off valves, with fewer fittings to install and one handle to turn instead of two.

L 型接頭還是 T 型接頭——我該選哪一種？

L型端口用於分流：將進口流體導向其中一個出口。T型端口用於混合或分配：可同時向兩個端口供流。 若您需要在兩個目的地之間切換管線，應選用 L 型接頭；若您需要合併兩股流體，或同時將一股流體分流為兩股，則應選用 T 型接頭。請說明閥門需要執行什麼功能，我們將為您推薦合適的型號。.

最高溫度是多少？

It depends on the seat. The fully encapsulated seat runs −20 °C to +80 °C. The semi-encapsulated seat runs −20 °C to +180 °C. Tell us the temperature of your line and we will fit the right one.

我該選哪個座位呢？

Fully encapsulated if product must not sit in a crevice: the PTFE fills the space around the ball, so the bore stays smooth. Semi-encapsulated if the line runs above 80 °C. It is a genuine trade-off between temperature and dead space, and we will help you pick.

I need this valve automated — what do you offer?

Buy the 衛生級氣動三通球閥. Same valve, same L-port or T-port choice, with a rack-and-pinion air actuator fitted on top, double acting or spring return.

貴公司提供哪些端部連接方式？

Tri-Clamp.

你們生產哪些尺寸？

Can I get it in 304?

Yes, to order. 316 is what we stock.

該怎麼清潔呢？

Undo the clamps to take the valve off the line, then undo the body bolts and it comes apart by hand: ball out, seats out, everything reachable. No cutting, no special tools.

1000 WOG。.

Do you supply a material certificate?

Yes. Ask for the mill certificate with your order and we will send it with the shipment.
