Description
The 3-Way T-Port Durapipe ABS Electric Actuated Ball Valve is a factory-assembled solution designed for automated mixing and diverting applications within ABS pipework systems. Built around the Durapipe TKD DualBlock® 3-way ball valve and paired with a J+J electric actuator, this assembly delivers reliable remote operation, excellent sealing performance and long-term durability.
The T-port ball configuration allows flow to be mixed from two inlets or diverted to multiple outlets depending on valve position, making it ideal for process control, water treatment and industrial distribution systems. The patented DualBlock® locking system ensures union nuts remain secure even under vibration or thermal expansion, while the Seat Stop® design allows fine adjustment of the ball seats without draining the system.
Supplied with imperial plain ends for solvent welding, the valve integrates seamlessly into Durapipe ABS installations. The IP67-rated actuator provides wide voltage compatibility, electronic torque protection and manual override for safe commissioning and maintenance.
