Flowserve Nordstrom Multiport valves incorporate the established principles of Nordstrom design and quality and are particularly efficient, compared to non-lubricated multiport valves, because of the provision of sealant grooves to prevent leakage between ports.
Use of multiport valves is advantageous in many installations, providing simplification of piping and convenience in operation. One 3-way or 4-way Nordstrom multiport valve may be used in place of two, three or four straightway valves, and in most cases will also eliminate other fittings such as tees and elbows.

A further advantage in the use of multiport valves is that where necessary, ports and stops can be arranged to permit the required operating connections, at the same time making it impossible for the valve to be turned to positions which would produce undersireable results, such as waste, overpressure on equipment, wrong mixtures, etc.

Nordstrom 3-way, 2-port; 3-way, 3-port; and 4-way multiport valves have ports arranged so that when the plug jis turned form one postion to another the channels previously in connection will be entirely cut off before new channels beign to open, thereby preventing mixture of fluids or loss of pressure.
