Three-way high-pressure ball valves
Download DatasheetBVC3 (Manifold Type)
Holmbury’s BVC3 Series three-way manifold type high-pressure
ball valves are designed to suit a wide range of applications.
These valves should not be used as flow control valves and
should therefore always be fully open or closed.
