The Conbraco 70-603-01 is a professional-grade 1/2 inch 3-way ball valve designed specifically for demanding HVACR and industrial fluid transfer applications. Engineered with a robust bronze body (ASTM B584), this Apollo 70-600 Series valve excels in flow diversion and tank selection, effectively performing the work of two traditional 2-way valves in a single compact footprint. The standard port configuration manages a reliable 400 PSI CWP rating, making it a staple for technicians handling cold water, gas, or non-shock utility lines. High-performance RPTFE seats and an adjustable packing gland ensure long-term sealing integrity under thermal cycling, while the blowout-proof stem design provides critical safety on the job site. With a chrome-plated brass ball and a 1/2" FNPT threaded connection, this valve delivers smooth quarter-turn operation and simplified maintenance for any commercial piping system.

Key Benefits

  • System Efficiency: This 3-way diversion valve eliminates the need for extra fittings, simplifying complex piping layouts and reducing potential leak points.
  • High Thermal Range: Rated for temperatures up to 500°F, accommodating steam and hot water applications where standard valves might fail.
  • Precision Control: Equipped with a zinc-plated steel lever and vinyl grip for easy quarter-turn operation and clear flow-path indication.
Common Questions

Can the Conbraco 70-603-01 be used as a mixing valve?
While primarily designed as a diversion valve for 1-inlet/2-outlet configurations, it can function in mixing applications if the open port pressure exceeds the closed port pressure to maintain seat integrity.

Is this valve suitable for potable water systems?
This specific model is the standard bronze version. For potable water requirements, contractors should verify local lead-free compliance codes as specialized "LF" lead-free models are typically required for those applications.

What is the maximum pressure rating for this 1/2" NPT valve?
The Conbraco 70-603-01 is rated for 400 psig CWP (Cold Working Pressure), providing a heavy-duty solution for non-shock hydraulic and pneumatic services.
