The L Port Valve and T Port Valve are both known as 3-way valves due to their T-shape body with three ports. Both divert flow to and from different ports, however the L Port Valve allows one action whereas the T Port Valve facilitates another.
The L Port valve is commonly used to direct the flow from two separate sources in one direction. For example – When emptying tanks, once one tank is empty the fluid can be drawn from the next tank to the same line by turning the handle to change the source.
The T Port Valve is commonly used for directing the flow in two directions. Fluid is directed to more than one location simultaneously, passing directly through the valve body as well as to the side port at a slightly lower pressure.
Our L Port Valve and T Port Valve feature a lockable latch on the handle, and have a maximum temperature of 250c. Both are rated to 1,000PSI / 69Bar and are suitable for water, oil and gas (known as W.O.G.).
