Rp 1/2'' T-Port 3-Way Pneumatic Stainless Steel Ball Valve Double-acting
This TamesonPRO 3-way ball valve is offered in combination with a JP Fluid Control pneumatic actuator. The valve features a 12.7 mm bore size and Rp 1/2 inch BSPT female threaded connections. It is suitable for medium temperatures from -29°C to 210°C (-20°F up to 410°F). The valve can handle pressures of up to 69 bar at 20°C (1000 psi at 68°F). The valve body and the ball are made of stainless steel 1.4408 with a PTFE seal, making it suitable for various aggressive and corrosive media. The Kv value is 5.6 m3/h (Cv = 6.5 gpm). Kv expresses the flow rate of water in m3/h at a pressure drop of one bar.
The actuator features a robust, double-acting rack-and-pinion mechanism with a 35-micron hard-anodized aluminum body. The pneumatic input range is from 3 to 8 bar (43 to 116 psi). It is suitable for ambient temperature from -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F). Additionally, it features a Namur 1/4 inch interface for solenoid valves and a 80 x 30 mm interface for VDI/VDE 3845 limit switch boxes.

Pros:
- Direct mounting of 1/4 Namur solenoid valve possible
- Guaranteed 500,000+ cycles for the pneumatic actuator
- Clear mechanical indicator on top shows the valve position
- Fast opening/closing
- Double-acting allows for greater control than single-acting actuators
- Can be equipped with a limit switch box (VDI/VDE 3845 80 x 30 mm)
- Lower initial investment cost than an electric version
Cons:
- Double-acting utilizes more compressed air than single-acting actuators
Bore and circuit function
The ball has a T-port. Rotating the ball 90 degrees allows you to switch between two circuits or connect all three pipes. The ports overlap during rotation.

1125 TamesonPRO Ball Valves
The 1125 series includes reliable 3-way ball valves with a L-port or T-port. The housing is made of stainless steel, the ball is also made of stainless steel and the valve seats are made of PTFE. The valves are suitable for various aggressive and corrosive media up to a maximum of 69 bar (1000 psi). Suitable for temperatures between -29°C and 210°C (-20°F and 410°F). Ball valves from the 1125 series all have an ISO 5211 top flange (from F03 to max. F07) which makes the mounting of an actuator possible.
JP Fluid Control Pneumatic Actuators
JP Fluid Control Rack and Pinion pneumatic actuators are designed to operate quarterturn valves such as butterfly and ball valves, offering both on/off and modulating capabilities. Featuring a durable anodized aluminum housing, these actuators provide torque up to 900 Nm (664 ft-lbf) with a constant torque characteristic across the swivel range. Engineered for precision and longevity, they have a service life of 500,000 cycles, ensuring dependable and secure valve control. After assembly, each actuator undergoes rigorous testing on a fully automated test bench, making them suitable for a broad range of industrial applications.
