Introduction

Ball valves are used to isolate an individual line, component or part of refrigeration or air-conditioning system. With the 3-way versions it is possible to divert refrigerant flow in applications such as heat reclaim. Due to the straight through design they offer maximum flow rate and are ideally suited to bi-flow, liquid, suction and hot gas lines.

 The Mueller Cyclemaster®  ball valve series has been designed to provide optimum system performance using full port construction and enhanced serviceability with a special quick turn cap. Featuring Muellers exclusive MCM™ seal technology, these valves exhibit immeasurably low leak rates after hundreds of thousands of cycles, and provide the flexibility for remote actuation.

Available in sizes from 3/8’’ to 3 1/8’’, all valves use a chromium plated ball that can be sized to match line size I.D., thereby eliminating system pressure drop. Using internal dual shaft seals as part of the blow-out proof stem design, and an external nut gasket with anti-friction ring incorporated into the quick turn cap, Cyclemaster®  valves offer the extra assurance needed to guarantee against refrigerant leaks to the environment. The quick turn cap also provides visual identification of stem position, and offers the benefit of easy servicing in tight places.

A motorized actuator is available to provide either local or remote operation and may be controlled by a thermostat, pressure switch, or microprocessor. There is a motorised actuator to fit all straight through and three way ball valves optional with fail safe positioning system and feedback signal.
