4WAY Ball Valve BSPT (SUS316, Bare)

Model: PAV-08

PAV-08 is a 4WAY ball valve featuring a precision-cast CF8M body with a BSPT threaded connection. It supports four-direction female-threaded ports and two port configurations (L/I), with an ISO5211 direct mounting pad applied as standard, making it easy to expand from manual operation to pneumatic or electric automation in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions

What port configurations are available for PAV-08?
PAV-08 supports L-port and I-port configurations. The L-port is for 90° directional switching to select one of two paths, suited for sections where two different sources must be alternately supplied to a single outlet. The I-port uses two opposing ports as an inline pass-through, useful for piping layout constraints. If it is difficult to determine which configuration matches your process flow sequence, please send the piping isometric drawing for a joint review.
Can BSPT connections be used directly on PT or NPT lines?
BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper, 55°) and PT (JIS taper, 55°) share the same thread angle and are generally interchangeable with sealing tape. NPT (US standard, 60°) has a different angle and poses a leakage risk if connected directly; use an adapter fitting or an NPT-specific product for NPT lines.
What is the practical benefit of the ISO5211 direct mounting pad?
The ISO5211 direct mounting pad couples the actuator directly to the body top without a separate bracket or coupler. This eliminates intermediate parts, reducing stem bending from alignment error and torque loss. Any future actuator type change (pneumatic or electric) can reuse the same pad standard, which is advantageous for standardization and long-term maintenance.
How is pressure-testing performed before shipment?
PAV-08 is pressure-tested against API598 criteria to verify body and seat integrity before shipment. If additional test certificates or alternative test standards are required due to project specifications, please request them in advance and we will advise on feasibility.
