Application Dixon Sanitary offers Bradford™ BV3I 3-way brass ball valves which are specifically designed for shutoff and directional control in a single valve. In some systems, a single Dixon Sanitary Multi-Port valve will replace several 2-way valves resulting in reduced costs and simplified flow control. The superior craftsmanship, choice materials, top quality, and strength make the BV3 the choice of industries with recirculation, mixing, and blending requirements.
Working Principal The BV3I valves are manually operated with a handle or controlled remotely with a pneumatic or electric actuator. Bradford™ pneumatic actuators are available for 90° and 180° rotation as spring return or double-acting. Electric actuators are available in a variety of voltages and options. A comprehensive range of switch units, solenoid valves, and positioners are available for varying degrees of control.
