3WAY Pneumatic Ball Valve BSPT (SUS316, Double Acting)

Model: PAVP-07(D)

PAVP-07(D) is a ball valve combining a SUS316 body with a 3WAY ball and a pneumatic double-acting actuator. 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 remote automatic switching lines in the chemical, plant, water/wastewater, and construction sectors.

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. 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 T3/T4/T5/T6 rotation angle arrangements 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 are configuration numbers indicating which inlet connects to which outlet - selection varies with the process sequence. Please share the required flow sequence and we will recommend the appropriate arrangement.
How do I choose between double acting and single acting?
Double acting offers fast response and large torque margin, making it suitable for high-frequency cyclic control, but position retention is uncertain on air loss. Single acting (spring return) provides Fail-safe return and is suited for lines where safety shutoff is critical. Choose double acting when high-speed automated control is the priority, and single acting when safe shutoff takes precedence.
What accessories can be attached to a pneumatic valve?
Various accessory combinations can be supplied as integrated packages tailored to site requirements. Common options include limit switch boxes (open/close feedback), solenoid valves (remote sequence control), and air filter regulators (supply air filtration and pressure stabilization).
