Air Actuated Stainless 3-Way Ball Valve- Scotch Yoke

Valworx air actuated 3-way stainless steel ball valves function as a diverter or selector valve. The spring return actuator (Series 5440/5433) requires a pneumatic pilot signal to change the valve position, springs will return the valve to the normal failsafe position. Double acting air actuators (Series 5439/5432) use air pressure only to change the valve position. Advantages of air actuated ball valves over other type valves may include: higher flow rates, higher pressures, higher temperatures, wider media compatibility, straight through flow path, reduced water hammer, and use in hazardous environments.
