Recommendation
Fit a strainer upstream of the valve to increase reliability.
Warning
The direction of flow for two-port valve MUST be as indicated by the arrow, from A → B.
MVI422…two-port valve |
De-energized position: Port “A” closed |
Three-port valves can be used in both diverting and mixing circuits.
When used in diverting circuits, the direction of flow for three-port valve is as indicated by the arrow in the valve body, from AB → B and AB → A (recommended) .
When used in mixing circuits, the direction of flow for three-port valves is opposite the arrow in valve body, from A → AB and B → AB.
