3-Way Brass Ball Valve | 5045 Series | FNPT x FNPT x FNPT | L-Port | 400 WOG
3-Way Brass Ball Valve | 5045 Series | FNPT x FNPT x FNPT | L-Port | 400 WOG
The 5045 Series 3-Way Brass Ball Valve provides reliable flow direction control in commercial, industrial, and HVAC applications. Designed with an L-Port configuration and FNPT threaded ends on all three ports, it enables smooth diversion or combination of flow while maintaining leak-free operation under pressure.
Engineered from ASTM B283 C37700 brass with PTFE seats and FKM/NBR O-rings, this valve combines corrosion resistance, tight sealing, and long-term reliability. With a 400 PSI WOG rating and 125 PSI WSP steam capacity, it performs exceptionally across a wide temperature range up to 366°F.
Key Features
- L-Port Flow Configuration: Allows controlled flow direction between two outlets or inlets for system flexibility.
- All-Brass Body: Constructed from ASTM B283 C37700 brass with a chrome-plated brass ball for strength and corrosion resistance.
- Triple FNPT Threaded Ends: Conforms to ASME B1.20.1 NPT standards for secure, leak-free threaded connections.
- Blow-Out Proof Stem: Increases operator safety and prevents stem ejection under pressure.
- Double O-Ring Stem Sealing: Combines FKM and NBR O-rings for superior, NSF-approved leak resistance.
- Mounting Pad: Supports actuator or bracket installation for automated or manual operation.
- PTFE Seats: Deliver smooth, low-torque operation and long service life.
- Pressure Rating: 400 PSI WOG (15°F–160°F) | 150 PSI Max at 366°F.
Applications
- Directional flow control in process piping systems
- Hydronic heating and cooling circuits
- HVAC and automation systems
- Water, oil, and gas service
