This automated 3-way ball valve combines precise switching functions with high operational safety: limit switch box for reliable position feedback, NAMUR solenoid valves for fast switching and a pneumatic or electric actuator – fully assembled and tested. Ideal for dosing, changeover and bypass applications in the chemical, energy, water/wastewater and food industries.
Applications & advantages
- 3-way switchover (L-/T-bore) for flexible process control
- Safe position feedback thanks to limit switches (up to IP68)
- Fast control via NAMUR solenoid valves (3/2 or 5/2)
- Pneumatic or electric rotary actuator, failsafe also possible
- Complete assembly: bridge, adapter/coupling, spindle extension –
tested ready for use
