Brass Three-Way Ball Valve with Female Threaded Ends

SUNRICH FLOW supplies brass three-way ball valves with female threaded ends for water supply, plumbing, HVAC, irrigation, equipment connection and general pipeline flow-control applications.

This model features a natural brass valve body, three female threaded ports and a blue lever handle for convenient quarter-turn operation. Depending on the internal ball configuration, the valve can be used to divert flow between two outlets, combine two inlet lines or switch the flow direction within a pipeline system.

L-port and T-port flow configurations can be supplied according to customer requirements. Buyers should confirm the required flow diagram, thread standard, valve size, working pressure and application before quotation.

Three-Way Flow Control

A three-way ball valve has three pipeline connections and is designed to control the direction of fluid flow. It can replace several standard two-way valves in applications where flow needs to be diverted, combined or switched.

The exact operating function depends on the internal ball port configuration.

L-Port Configuration

An L-port ball normally connects the common port to one of two alternative ports.

It is commonly used for:

• Diverting flow from one inlet to two alternative outlets
• Switching between two pipeline branches
• Selecting between two tanks, pumps or equipment lines
• Isolating one branch while opening another branch

T-Port Configuration

A T-port ball can provide more flexible flow combinations, depending on the handle position and valve design.

It may be used for:

• Dividing one inlet flow into two outlets
• Combining two inlet lines into one outlet
• Connecting all three ports in selected positions
• Switching and mixing pipeline flow

The required flow diagram should be confirmed before production because L-port and T-port valves are not interchangeable in every application.

Female Threaded Connections

All three valve ports are designed with internal threaded connections.

Available thread standards may include:

• BSP parallel thread
• BSPT tapered thread
• NPT tapered thread

Customers should confirm the destination market and required thread standard before quotation. BSP and NPT threads have different profiles and should not be treated as interchangeable.

Applications

This brass three-way ball valve is commonly used for:

• Water supply systems
• Residential and commercial plumbing
• HVAC pipeline systems
• Heating and cooling equipment
• Irrigation systems
• Water treatment equipment
• Pump and tank connections
• Equipment inlet and outlet switching
• Flow diversion and mixing systems
• General industrial pipeline control

Blue Lever Handle

The blue lever handle provides convenient quarter-turn operation and clear valve-position indication.

The handle position should be matched with the internal flow diagram. For three-way valves, the relationship between handle direction and open flow path should be clearly marked on the valve, handle or product instructions.

Handle color, printing and position markings can be customized for OEM orders.

Material and Product Options

Depending on customer requirements, available options may include:

• Natural brass finish
• Nickel plated finish
• Different brass material grades
• L-port or T-port ball
• Equal-port or reduced-port design
• Different valve body weights
• BSP, BSPT or NPT threads
• Blue, red or customized handle colors
• Customer logo marking
• Customized retail and export packaging

The exact brass grade, ball material, sealing material, port configuration and pressure rating should be confirmed before quotation.

FAQ

Q1: What is a brass three-way ball valve used for?
It is used for diverting, combining, mixing or switching fluid flow between three pipeline connections.

Q2: What is the difference between L-port and T-port?
An L-port valve normally switches the common port between two alternative ports. A T-port valve can provide additional flow combinations and may connect all three ports in selected positions.

Q3: Are all three connections female threaded?
The product shown appears to have three female threaded ends. Final connection specifications should be confirmed before quotation.

Q4: Can you supply BSP or NPT threads?
Yes. BSP, BSPT and NPT thread options can be supplied according to customer requirements.

Q5: Is this a full-port valve?
The port type should be confirmed according to the exact product drawing and specification.

Q6: What pressure rating is available?
Different pressure ratings may be available. The exact rating depends on valve size, body structure, sealing material and product specification.

Q7: Can the handle color and flow marking be customized?
Yes. Handle color, logo, flow-direction marking and packaging can be customized for OEM orders.

Q8: What information is required for quotation?
Please send the size, thread standard, L-port or T-port configuration, flow diagram, quantity, pressure requirement, working medium, packaging requirement and destination port.
