Nordstrom Multiport Plug Valves

Use of multiport valves is advantageous in many installations, providing simplification of piping and convenience in operation. One 3-way or 4-way Nordstrom multiport valve may be used in place of two, three or four straightway valves, and in most cases will also eliminate other fittings such as tees and elbows. A further advantage in the use of multiport valves is that, where necessary, ports and stops can be arranged to permit the required operating connections, at the same time making it impossible for the valve to be turned to positions that would produce undesirable results, such as waste, overpressure on equipment, wrong mixtures, etc.
