Proven 5-Way Ball Valve Now Available In 3/8" NPT For Wider Range Of Flow Control Applications

St. Paul, February 2019 ? The Specialty Manufacturing Company, a worldwide leader in custom metal and plastic valves, introduced the 845 Series 3/8" five-way valve to solve complex flow control and diversion challenges across a broad range of media.

Initially designed for 3/8" NPT applications, the new valve can be customized with a variety of NPT and barbed ends. The 845 Series features a 90-degree ported ball with a .312" through hole diameter that accepts media through the bottom port and directs it to any one of the four side ports ? with no flow to the other three. Side ports can also be plugged to create ?no-flow? options. Output port selection is positive via the nylon handle and full 360-degree rotation with a tactile and audible click at each port. Panel mount hole requirement is .750" diameter and accommodates a maximum panel thickness of .375".

Constructed of solid brass, the 845 Series features an electroless nickel-plated brass ball, 302 stainless steel detent and spring, and has a maximum operating pressure of 500 psi at up to 180?F, making it ideal for pressure, vacuum operation, and panel applications. The 845 is available with Buna-N, Ethylene Propylene, or Fluoroelastomer (Viton?) seals.

?The new 845 Series extends the function of our existing 835 Series Ball Valve by providing more flow in a 5-way configuration,? said Dennis Johnson, Director of Engineering. ?Our Engineers were able to react quickly when a customer told us they preferred our existing 835 but needed more flow capacity.? Johnson added, ?like the 835, this new ball valve provides a good base to customize for specific applications including; fitting sizes, flow patterns, stops, and seals, etc.?.
