3WAY Ball Valve BSPT (SUS316, Bare)

Model: PAV-07

PAV-07 is a ball valve featuring a precision-cast SUS316 CF8M body with a 3WAY ball and bare-shaft specification. It supports two port configurations (L/T) and multiple rotation-angle arrangements (L3/T3/T4/T5/T6), with an ISO5211 direct mounting pad as a standard specification. It is used for 3-way flow-switching lines in the chemical, plant, water/wastewater, and construction sectors.

Features

• Compact design for easy installation in confined spaces
• Leak tested per API598
• First in Korea: ISO5211 Direct Mounting Pad (Part-Turn Actuator Attachments) - direct actuator coupling without separate bracket or parts

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use L-port vs. T-port in a 3WAY ball valve?

The L-port connects only one of the two ports at a time, making it suitable for simple switching between two sources or directing to a single outlet. The T-port can connect all three ports simultaneously for manifolds requiring concurrent branching and merging. Choose L-port for simple single-path switching and T-port when simultaneous multi-path control is needed.

What do the rotation angle arrangements (T3/T4/T5/T6) mean?

T-port 3WAY ball valves offer multiple flow patterns depending on the ball bore geometry and rotation angle combination. T3, T4, T5, and T6 arrangements indicate which inlet connects to which outlet at a given rotation - the selection varies with the process sequence. Please share the required flow sequence and we will recommend the appropriate arrangement.

What is a bare (Bare) shaft specification?

A bare shaft valve is supplied with only the stem exposed - no handle or actuator installed. The appropriate driver (manual handle, pneumatic actuator, or electric actuator) is chosen and attached on site. This is used for projects where the automation plan is implemented in phases.

What is the practical benefit of the ISO5211 direct mounting pad?

The ISO5211 direct mounting pad allows the actuator to be coupled directly to the body top without a separate bracket or coupler. This eliminates intermediate parts and reduces alignment error and torque loss. Any future change of actuator type (pneumatic or electric) can reuse the same pad standard, which is advantageous for standardization.
