The Pneumatic 316 Stainless Steel 3-Way Clamp Ball Valve is a high-performance, multi-directional flow control solution designed for sanitary and industrial applications. Constructed from AISI 316L stainless steel and featuring a tri-clamp connection, this valve ensures sterility, durability, and precise flow diversion in demanding environments. Its pneumatic actuation enables fast, automated operation, making it ideal for pharmaceutical, food & beverage, chemical processing, and semiconductor industries.
✅ 316L Stainless Steel Construction
- Superior corrosion resistance against acids, alkalis, and aggressive chemicals.
- Mirror-polished interior (Ra ≤ 0.8μm) for zero contamination risk, compliant with FDA, EHEDG, and 3A standards.
- High-temperature tolerance (-20°C to 180°C / -4°F to 356°F).
✅ 3-Way Flow Control
- L-Port (90° diversion): For switching between two flow paths (A→B or A→C).
- T-Port (180° mixing/splitting): For combining or distributing flows (A+B→C or A→B+C).
- Full-bore design eliminates dead legs, ensuring complete drainability and CIP/SIP compatibility.
✅ Pneumatic Actuation for Automation
- Fast response time (<1 second) for efficient process control.
- 4-20mA feedback signal for seamless integration with PLC/DCS systems.
- IP65/IP67 protection (optional ATEX/Ex d II CT6 for hazardous areas).
✅ Sanitary Tri-Clamp Connection
- Quick-installation clamps (DIN 32676 / SMS compliant) for tool-free assembly.
- Leak-proof performance with PTFE/EPDM seals (100,000+ cycles).
✅ Low Maintenance & Long Lifespan
- Modular actuator design for easy servicing.
- PTFE or metal-seated options for wear resistance.
