3- and 5-Way

For both suction applications as well as for pressure applications. altek offers ball valves in the sizes 1¼”, 2” and 3”. They can be driven either manually or electrically.

The ball is made from wear resistant POM & Teflon with easy slyde properties. The sealing rings can be adjusted in the housing. Consequently, a safe sealing and functioning of the sprayer is secured for many years.

Our uppermost maxime regarding the development of the balves is to satisfy the increasing lifetime requirements. We have optimized wear resistance and surface conditions by choosing a special material. Likewise, the wear resistance of the sealing rings was enhanced by a special contouring and thanks to the choice of material.

Our balls made from POM have a significant weight advantage in comparison to steel balls at the same or even longer lifetime!

• Compact design
• High wear resistance
• Ball bearing shaft
• Special fittings on request
• altek Plug-In System for 5-way Ball Valve 1 ¼"
• The 5-way Ball Valve 2" allows hose diameters of up to 60 mm

Electric 5-Way Ball Valves

additionally to the properties of the manual 5-way ball valves:

• With optionally 1 or 2 turning directions
• Positioning the ball via microswitch***
• Integrated emergency control

*** Optional: Positioning with Potentiometer

5-Way Ball Valves SMART

• The control of the ball valve is done via CAN bus, in case of failure this can also be operated manually
• In the event of blockages or faults, corresponding error messages are sent to the controller
• Diagnostic capability by output of operational data
• In the event of a blockage or malfunction, integrated current protection prevents overloading the engine and transmission

Drive type

The switching ball of the electric ball valve is moved via the control line.
In the SMART version, the ball valve communicates via the CAN bus.

Flow

• Fluid inflow is on all ball valves from below.
• The red shift lever shows the position of the shift ball with manual ball valves.
• Through the sight glass in the cover, the red arrow indicates the ball position in the electric or SMART valve.
