South American Valve is a leading Triple Duty valve manufacturer in Mexico. From a design perspective, a triple duty valve is a multi-function valve; it is meant to serve three primary functions within an overall unit that is considered compact, hence the term. Among these are a shut-off valve in combination with a balancing valve and a check valve. It is a multi-functional design that will allow it to control flow, balance system pressures, and prevent reverse flow in HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) and plumbing systems.

Design: 

A triple duty valve typically has an integrated valve body with elements for each function. It may be a globe-style valve for shut-off and balancing purposes, and its mechanism may even include that of the swing or lift check valve to preclude backflow. The body will be made of a few heavy materials including brass, bronze, or stainless steel.

Operation: 

In operation, the three-way valve controls fluid flow in a device by opening and closing the valve, thereby allowing or controlling flow. It is used as a shut-off valve to isolate sections of the system to maintenance shutdowns or emergency shutdowns. A balancing valve is used in controlling the flow rate of a balanced and evenly hydraulic distribution of different zones or circuits. The purpose is that a valve keeps proper performance and energy efficiency. The check valve function will ensure fluid flows in the intended direction; hence, there is prevention of backflow as it keeps the integrity of the system.

What is the purpose of a Triple Duty valve?

It gives prevention against backflow, allowing fluid getting to the system in one direction and keeps away from probable damage through reverse flow.

It gives fine control over flow and balancing in the system. This makes sure that the system sustains correct fluid flow rate for achieving a perfect optimum performance.

It permits parts of the devices to be isolated for maintenance, repairs, or modifications without jeopardizing the rest of the device, thus easing and simplifying maintenance.
