Key Features

Three‑Way Configuration: The valve is engineered with three ports, enabling it to divert water flow between different operational modes. This flexibility is crucial for ensuring that the filter performs optimally during routine cleaning (backwashing) or regular circulation.
Flanged Design: Its 6‑inch flanged connections simplify installation and provide a secure, leak‑free setup. The robust flanged design is intended to withstand the demands of commercial applications and ensure longevity.
Integration & Durability: Specifically designed to complement Pentair’s commercial sand filters, the V3‑06 valve is built with corrosion‑resistant materials and precision engineering. Users benefit from a valve that minimizes pressure drops, enhances flow efficiency, and offers a long service life even under demanding conditions.

Applications

Backwash Operations: In a commercial sand filter setup, switching the valve to the backwash mode enables the filter to clean itself without interrupting overall system performance.
Flow Control for Filtration: The valve’s ability to route water through different paths helps maintain water clarity and optimal pressure levels during normal filtration cycles.
Recirculation Mode: Some installations incorporate a recirculation mode to allow water to bypass the filter during specific operations, further highlighting the valve's versatility.

This product is widely used in commercial pools, spas, and water parks where maintaining efficient water circulation and filtration is critical for both performance and longevity of the overall system.
