Rather than using two, two-way automated valves to control the flow of liquids, a single three-way valve does the job with fewer components and lower costs. The PTP Series is a group of three-way PVC ball valves that protect piping systems and reduce cost when diverting flow in wastewater, irrigation, filtration and light-duty chemical applications. The manufacturer has added an online configurator for the PTP Series to make it quick and easy for engineers to specify their requirements. — Assured Automation, Clark, N.J.
