Part Number: 3MSV-BF450
The Dwyer 3MSV-BF450 is a compact 3-way ball valve engineered for directional flow control in instrumentation and small industrial systems. Its brass body provides a practical construction for compatible flow-control applications, while the 1/2" female NPT connection allows direct installation into threaded panels and process lines.
The valve features a microfinished ball and PTFE seats that provide a reliable, low-torque seal. Its straight-through flow design helps minimize pressure drop during operation.
With an 11.10 mm orifice, the 3MSV-BF450 is designed for applications requiring greater flow capacity within the compact 3-way valve configuration. It is rated for pressures up to 1500 psig (103 bar) and temperatures from -40° to 350°F.
The three-way configuration allows the valve to direct or divert fluid flow between ports, making it suitable for instrumentation systems where directional control is required rather than simple single-line shutoff.
For applications requiring a stainless steel body, the Dwyer 3MSV-SF450 provides a 316 stainless steel construction with the same 1/2" female NPT connection and 11.10 mm orifice.
