A 3-way jacketed PTFE sleeved plug valve with lever operation is a specialized valve designed for controlling the flow of fluids in applications that require temperature regulation or handling of sensitive fluids. The valve features a tapered plug with a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) sleeve, offering excellent resistance to corrosion, chemical attack, and wear, ensuring smooth operation and a reliable seal. The 3-way design allows the valve to divert or mix fluids between three different ports, making it ideal for complex flow control scenarios. The jacketed design provides an additional external chamber around the valve body that can be used for heating or cooling, making it suitable for handling viscous, temperature-sensitive, or high-temperature fluids. The lever-operated mechanism ensures easy manual control for precise adjustments. This type of valve is commonly used in industries such as chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, and food processing, where temperature control and reliable performance in harsh environments are essential.
