The R-K DAV series Divertor Air Valve features a 3-way valve with multiple use capabilities. It can be used to direct the flow, combine the flow or be used as an exhaust valve. When installed in the system, flow will be directed from port “C” to “N/C”. When air pressure is applied, flow will be from “C” to “N/O”. When used to combine the flow, it will be from “N/C” to “C”; and when air is applied, flow will be from “N/O” to “C”. When used as an exhaust valve, flow will be from “N/O” to “N/O” with air applied and from “C” to “N/C” when pressure is relieved. Two valves used together (“N/C” to “N/C”) can be used as a 4-way valve.
This patented valve is designed so there is no metal contact with the fluid and is available in two styles: Type 1 uses air to open and a spring to close; Type 2 uses air to open and air to close. Other features include direct acting full flow and top entry for easy maintenance.
