Problem-Solver Multi-Port Ball Valves Offer Superior Fit, Performance, and Maintainability



Available in 1/4" to 4" sizes, TRIAC 3-, 4- and 5-way ball valves feature direct-mount, full port design, "no leak" pyramidal stem seal, and patented easy-on/off end caps

March 2005 - Innovative engineering by A-T Control makes new TRIAC Series 33, 43 and 53 stainless steel multi-port ball valves a superior all-around solution to mixing, diverting and multi-directional flow control. Featuring four patented design innovations, the TRIAC multi-port valves are easy to configure and install, engineered for superior performance and reliability, and permit fastest, easiest in-line maintenance. Five-seat, full-port construction provides equal seat loading and positive sealing at any port, while balls offer L-Port, T-Port, I-Port, TT-Double T-Port, and LL-Double L-Port configurations. Available in 3-, 4- and 5-way models, 1/4" to 4" sizes, a wide range of end connections and seat materials, the TRIAC multi-port valves can be configured for nearly 150 different flow pattern combinations.

Direct-mount, dual-pattern ISO 521 pad enables space-saving, low-profile actuator mounting without brackets or adapters for easy, low-cost automation. Valves can be ordered with actuators as pre-assembled packages, a specialty of A-T Controls.

Patented engineering advances assure superior performance, maintainability and ease of use:

o Patented pyramidal packing provides optimum stem sealing and extended cycle life, while a blow-out-proof stem offers maximum safety.

o A patented semi-trunnion ball design locks ball to stem to eliminate backlash and hysteresis, ensure accurate positioning, and reduce operating torque.

o Patented cavity-filled seat design fills 95% of the dead space between ball and valve body, the most of any multi-port valve to minimize contamination potential.

o Patented two-piece end cap design enables easy removal with the valve mounted in line, making for fast, economical replacement of gaskets and seats.

The Triac Series 33/43/53 multi-port valves are constructed of ASTM-standard 316 stainless steel. Sanitary versions are an option. Precision-machined, mirror-polished solid balls deliver bubble-tight shut-off with less operating torque. Valves are built in compliance with relevant ANSI, API, ISO, DIN, and MSS standards, are produced to ISO 9001 quality controls, and carry CE approval.

A-T Controls specializes in packaged solutions and fast delivery from stock on a comprehensive selection of ball valves, actuators and controls for process industries.
