Flow-through flowpath –
SF configuration

Multiposition valves – low pressure
MW type

SF valves are similar to SDs and SCs, selecting a stream and sending it to the outlet. However, SFs allow the non-selected streams to flow through individual outlets instead of a common outlet. See application suggestion.

Specifications / Product numbers

A complete valve product number includes information about the specific valve, actuator, and mounting hardware. Locate the valve with desired specifications in the chart below and select it to continue to the next step in arriving at the correct product number.

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".

Options

Consult the factory for product number and pricing for the following options:

Standard valve body material is Nitronic 60 stainless steel. Other materials are available: Hastelloy C, Inconel 600, Monel 400, Nickel 200, Nitronic 50, titanium, and zirconium.
