Going to try an option for the Buon Vino Super Jet Filter. We are inserting a Viton® Seal/End Conn. 1/2" HB 3 Way Ball Valve between the pump and the filter. This way we can direct the flow for filtering or transferring. Just an idea, we'll see if it works well in a few weeks.

Maximum Operating Pressure — 125 psi. Maximum Operating Temperature — 140°F. Ball Through Hole Diameter — .312. The 326 Series Three-Way Ball Valve design promotes multiple configurations to fit the exact end use application. The bottom port is common and the 326 Series can be used as a diverter or selecting valve. The handle has 180° rotation and lies over the open port. When the handle is rotated 90° from either port, flow is shut off to both ports. Gray PVC is the standard material and is an NSF Standard 61 Approved Material. Not for vacuum. FPT end connectors pictured.




Here is the set up for the 3 way valve. We tested it with water and it worked great. The installation took about half an hour. Moved the white hose connectors from one side to the other. Spliced in the 3 way valve. Be aware, the center position is closed and not a good idea to run the pump in this position. We will perform the filter test onAugust 13th.

The 3 way valve performed great! No leaks, no issues at all.
