Four Way Ball Valve

A: Unlike a standard two-way or three-way ball valve, a four-way valve has four ports and a specially designed ball to direct flow in multiple directions, allowing for complex flow configurations like diversion or circulation.

A: They are widely used in chemical processing, pharmaceutical production, food and beverage, water treatment, HVAC systems, and oil & gas pipelines for flow diversion, mixing, or circulation applications.

A: Key specifications include pressure rating (PN16–PN100 / Class 150–600), size range, body material (stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel), seat material (PTFE, RPTFE, PEEK), end connection type (flanged, threaded, welded), and operation method (manual, pneumatic, electric).

A: Yes. Depending on the material and design, they can handle high-pressure systems up to Class 600 or more and temperatures ranging from -29°C to 425°C, suitable for harsh industrial environments.

A: Yes, especially when made of stainless steel or corrosion-resistant alloys and combined with compatible seat materials. They are suitable for chemical, acidic, or saline fluids.

A: They can be operated manually with a lever or gear operator, or automatically using pneumatic or electric actuators for precise and remote control.

A: Price depends on material grade, pressure rating, size, seat and body design, actuation method, certifications (API, ISO, CE), and any special features like corrosion resistance, fire-safe design, or high-cycle durability.
