Dwyer Instruments 3MSV-BD450 | Compact 3-way ball valve | Brass | 1/2" tube | 11.10 mm orifice
The Dwyer 3MSV-BD450 is a compact brass 3-way ball valve with a 1/2" tube fitting connection and 11.10 mm orifice, designed for directional and diverting flow control in instrumentation and small industrial systems. Its microfinished ball, PTFE seats, and straight-through flow design provide smooth operation and reliable sealing with low pressure drop.
Part Number: 3MSV-BD450
The Dwyer 3MSV-BD450 is engineered for applications where fluid needs to be routed or diverted between ports rather than simply turned on or off. Its compact 3-way configuration makes it suitable for instrumentation panels, tube-fitting assemblies, and small process systems where space and reliable flow control are important.
The valve features a brass body, a 1/2" tube fitting connection, and an 11.10 mm orifice. The microfinished ball works with PTFE seats to provide a reliable, low-torque seal and smooth valve operation.
A straight-through flow design helps minimize pressure drop through the valve. The 3MSV-BD450 is rated for pressures up to 1500 psig (103 bar) and temperatures from -40° to 350°F, making it suitable for a range of instrumentation and fluid-handling applications.
For installations requiring stainless steel construction, the Dwyer 3MSV-SD450 offers the same 1/2" tube fitting connection and 11.10 mm orifice in a 316 stainless steel body.
