Common outlet flowpath – SC configuration

Multiposition valves – low pressure
MW Type

SC valves select one of 4 to 16 dead-ended streams. The selected stream flows from the outlet to a sample valve, pressure sensor, detector, column, etc. SC valves are similar to the SD configuration in that regard, but instead of being dead-ended as in the SD valves, the non-selected streams flow to a common outlet. See application suggestion.

Actuation

Valves can be automated with pneumatic or electric actuators. Manual actuation is not recommended. Read more about actuators.

Standoffs

Multiposition GC valves usually require a standoff - an extension between the valve and actuator which allows the valve to be mounted in the heated zone while the actuator or handle remains outside at ambient temperature. Standoffs are available in lengths of 2", 3" 4", and 6".
