6-Way Configuration

6-Way Inline Continuous Flow Transfer Valve

Minimum Pressure Drop · Straight-Through Flow · API 614 Compliant

Straight-Through Flow — Minimum Pressure Drop

The Preferred Choice for Pressure-Sensitive Systems

In the 6-Way Inline configuration, the inlet and the active outlet port are aligned on the same axis — the fluid travels in a straight line through the valve body to the active equipment train. This eliminates the directional changes present in same-side and opposite-side configurations, resulting in the lowest possible pressure drop.

This makes the inline configuration the standard choice for API 614 turbine lube oil skids, compressor seal oil systems, and any application where minimizing pressure drop is a design requirement.

6-Way Inline Porting

Why Choose Inline Over Same-Side or Opposite-Side?

In the inline configuration, the common inlet and the active outlet are directly opposite each other — in-line through the valve body — so flow passes straight through with no directional change. This produces the minimum possible pressure drop across the valve in the active position. The remaining outlet ports are distributed around the valve body and are isolated when not selected. Choose inline whenever pressure drop across the valve is a critical design constraint.

Standard Features

  • ›Straight-through active flow path — lowest pressure drop
  • ›Positive mechanical shoe-seal — zero leakage in both positions
  • ›Continuous flow changeover — no shutdown or pressure loss
  • ›Stainless steel operating shaft and internal mechanism
  • ›Low operating torque — manual or actuated operation
  • ›API 614 designed and tested
  • ›Flanged (150# / 300#) or butt-weld connections
  • ›Internals interchangeable with HYCOA JR-33
