Three-Way B Series Ball Valves
Catalog 4121-BV
Introduction
B
Parker manually, pneumatically, and electrically actuated three-way B Series Ball Valves may be used as diverting
or selecting valves for fluids utilized in process and instrumentation applications. The standard three-way diverter
valve is designed to accept media through the bottom port and direct it out of two outlet ports. When equipped
with spring-loaded seats, the three-way valve may be used as a selector valve, alternately accepting media from
either of two inlet sources (side ports) and directing it through a single outlet (bottom port).
Features
Available in 316 stainless steel and brass
construction. Monel® Alloy 400 and Hastelloy®
C-276 construction available for Diverter Valves
upon request.
Micro-finished ball provides a positive seal.
Wide variety of US Customary and SI ports.
180 degree actuation.
Panel mountable.
Adjustable PTFE stem seal can be maintained
316 Stainless Steel and Brass ....3000 psig (207 bar) CWP

connections, please see the Instrument Tubing Selection
Guide (Bulletin 4200-TS), found in the Technical Section
of the Parker Instrumentation Process Control Binder, or

Pressure vs. Temperature
Note: To determine MPa, multiply bar by 0.1
B Series Ball Valves
Note: This Pressure versus Temperature chart
reflects the maximum temperature range of indicated
materials.
When combining seat and seal materials, the most
restrictive temperature rating of the seats or seals
becomes the limiting factor on valve temperature
range.
Elastomeric stem packing and seals are recommended
if the application subjects the valve to thermal cycling.
Please see pages 2 and 4 for maximum pressure ratings.

Two-Way Valve Upstream and Downstream Drain Options
For draining upstream or downstream media on two-way valves at pressures below 150 psig (10 bar), add the
suffix –VBU (Vented Ball Upstream) or –VBD (Vented Ball Downstream). Example: 4Z-B6LJ-SSP-VBU. This
option is also suitable to vent the ball cavity in vacuum applications. For pressures up to 3,000 psig (207 bar),
select S2 or SPKR spring-loaded seats and add the suffix –VBU (Vented Ball Upstream) or –VBD (Vented Ball
Downstream). Example: 4Z-B6LS2-SSP-VBU
Note: VBD and VBU are ball cavity vents only.

PR Series Rotary Plug Valves
Catalog 4121-BV
Introduction
Parker PR Series Plug Valves provide positive leak tight shut-off, high flow capacity, and quick quarter-turn
operation in a compact attractive package. The patented blow-out resistant seat design offers reliable sealing
technology at all operating pressures. In addition to on-off actuation, the plug design allows forward flow throttling.
A selection of valve seat and seal materials may be chosen for media compatibility and performance over a broad
PR
range of temperatures. The pressure balanced atmospheric seals are backed by PTFE rings to enhance their
performance and increase cycle life.

PR Series Rotary Plug Valves
How to Order
The correct part number is easily derived from the following example and ordering chart. The six product
characteristics required are coded as shown in the chart.
* Note: If the inlet and outlet ports are the same, eliminate the outlet port designator.
The following example describes a PR Series rotary plug valve equipped with 1/4" CPI™ compression inlet and
Used to lock the handle from accidental rotation in either the
opened or closed position. To order the device with the valve,
add the suffix –LD to the end of the part number.
Example and model shown: 4F-PR4-VT-B-LD.
To order the device separately, specify LD-PR4 or LD-PR6.
Downstream Venting – As the valve is positioned from opened to closed, downstream pressure is released to atmosphere
through a vent hole in the body and plug. The maximum recommended operating pressure for this option is 150 psig (10 bar).
To order, insert V after PR in the model number. Example: 4A-PRV4-VT-B
Colored Handles – Black is the standard color. Add the designator corresponding to the correct handle color as a suffix to
the part number: W – white, B – blue, G – green, R – red, Y – yellow. Example: M6A-PR4-BNT-SS-G
Stainless Steel Directional Handles – A stainless steel handle with the same design configuration as the standard nylon
handle is available for the PR4 series. Add the designator –ST as a suffix to the part number.
Example: 4Q-PR4-EPRT-SS-ST
An all metal bar stock design for higher strength and
durability. Consists of a stainless steel pin and aluminum
adapter. To order, add the suffix –T to the end of the part
number.
Example and model shown: 4M4A-PR4-EPRT-SS-T.
