Three Way Ball Valves: Controlling direction of flow

All Hayward® three way ball valves have true union bodies which can be separated from the pipe connections, enabling servicing (adjustment or replacement) of the valve’s seats and seals without disassembly of the pipeline.

Hayward’s three way ball valves are available in PVC and CPVC materials, and either material can be provided with your choice of EPDM or FPM stem o-ring seals. There are two distinct types of three way ball valves body styles, standard (bottom inlet) and lateral (side inlet).

The Hayward® TW series (illustrated on the left) has a bottom inlet connection relative to the valves handle.

Compared to the TW series, Hayward’s LA series (illustrated on the right) has a side inlet, relative to the valve’s handle.

The flow into the valve can be through any of the three ports; for example you might want to divert flow from either port to a common port or from the common line to both or alternate ports.

Each valve has a datasheet illustrating the different diverting balls available and their respective flow path with the handle at 0°, 90° and 180°. The diverting balls are drilled in three different styles referred to as NT, TW and TP.

Description

Connections

Threaded connections are NPT (American Standard) tapered pipe threads and it is suggested that a non-petroleum based sealant such as PTFE (Teflon™) plumbers tape is applied to your inlet/outlet pipe connections.

Flanged connections conform to ANSI 150# dimensions and a 1/8” thick full face gasket having a durometer rating between 50 and 70 is required for proper sealing. The bolts, nuts and washers should be properly lubricated and unless otherwise specified, Hayward’s typical scope of supply is only the valve (gaskets, bolts, nuts, washers and PTFE tape supplied by others).
