Supplier's note

  1. Three Key Breakthroughs:

    • Stainless Steel Body (ASTM A240 Grade 316): The Pro model’s premium alloy provides triple the corrosion resistance of industry standards, enabling safe handling of aggressive chemicals.
    • 3-Way Diverter Design: Unique flow path configuration allows simultaneous isolation or mixing of fluids, ideal for multi-pipeline systems.
    • NPT Threaded Compatibility: Meets ANSI B1.20.1 standards, ensuring seamless integration with global plumbing infrastructure.
  2. Optimal Version Selection:

    • Base Model: Suitable for standard plumbing (e.g., residential water systems) where cost efficiency is prioritized.
    • Advanced Model: Recommended for industrial plants handling moderate pressures (e.g., food processing) due to enhanced corrosion resistance.
    • Pro Model: Designed for extreme applications like oil refineries or chemical storage, where high pressure (up to 5460 psi) and corrosive media require premium durability.

*Pro Model pressure rating exceeds industry benchmarks by 30%, validated via ISO 10361 testing.
