| Short Description: | Two-way and three-way ball valves are the most common types of ball valves. Three-way ball valves are especially useful because they can be set up in ways that simplify the control of gas and fluid flow. For example, they can be used to divert the flow of oil from one tank to another. |

| Working Type: | - A 3-way ball valve works by turning the handle, which rotates a ball in the valve body, to align the cut-out channels in the ball with the inlets and outlets of the valve. The "L" shape cut-out of the ball on an L-port valve sends fluid through 90 degrees from one port to another
|
| Applications: | - Divert flow going to one storage tank to a different tank
- Change the source of flow from one pump to a different pump
- Change the source of flow source from one tank to a different tank
- Divert flow from a chiller or heater to accommodate seasonal demand
- Cut off all flow while still being able to choose between two flow destinations or two flow sources
