Description 

The 3-Way (PTW) and 4-Way (PFW) Tapered Plug valves are available with material, actuator and 
accessory options to meet a wide range of application requirements. 

Three plug styles are offered to provide flow paths with 90 and 360 degree plug rotation. Each different 
flow path arrangement has a unique number called a Combination Number. See the Product Bulletin for 
these valves for a complete description of the Combination Numbers. 

If an actuator other than a DeZURIK is to be mounted, the actuator must be capable of maintaining the 
valve plug position with flow in the pipeline. 

.

  

This valve is a pressure vessel. Failure to release pipeline pressure may result in 
personal injury and/or flow system damage. Completely release pipeline pressure 
before removing the actuator from the valve or removing the valve from the pipeline. 

Handling  

Lifting the valve improperly may damage it. Do not fasten lifting devices to the

 

actuator, plug or through 

the seat opening in the body. Lift the valve with

 

slings, chains or cables fastened around the valve 

body, or fastened to bolts or

 

rods through bolt holes in the flanges.

 

Required Tools  

This valve is assembled using only SAE fasteners. To service this valve, you should have a full set of 
combination wrenches, Allen wrenches, a large flat tipped screwdriver, a flat pry bar, a pin punch and a 
dead blow hammer. 

Note: 

You may want to machine a shaft to aid you in removing the lower bearing from the body.  See 

"Disassembly" section. 

Installation

 

 

This Instruction Manual covers the installation requirements of the valve only. For actuator or accessory 
installation information, see the Instruction Manual for that component. 

Flow Direction  

It is recommended that the valve be installed so pipeline pressure will push the plug into the seat(s) of 
the port(s) being sealed.

 

Lubrication  

This valve does not require routine maintenance lubrication.  If the valve is disassembled, lubricate the 
packing and plug journals as follows:
