The V3 face valve is designed for use on a
VersaPump 3 (V3). This valve is designed to be
mounted on a V3 pump and be used with a Kloehn
V3 syringe. These valves are rated to 100 psi and
are used in a variety of clinical, medical, and
analytical instrumentation applications. Face
valves are highly inert to most chemistry and are
designed for long life in most conditions. The valves
are offered in two basic flow types, Distribution and
Non-Distribution flow patterns.
*Vacuum pressure: -25inHg maximum at 2750ft elevation (1psia max).
**Custom ports, wetted materials and configurations are available upon request. See your local salesman for
more information.

Valve Types
Distribution
A distribution valve distributes fluid from the syringe to
the various ports on the valve. Fluid may be drawn into the
syringe from a given port and dispensed out of another
port. Distribution valves have a flow path configuration that
connects the syringe port to the various fluid ports. The
number of ports on the valve is determined by the number
of ports the syringe can distribute fluid to. The syringe port
does not count as one of the ports on a distribution valve.
Non-Distribution
A non-distribution valve connects adjacent ports on a valve
to allow fluid to flow between them. Fluid may be drawn
into the syringe only from one of the adjacent ports. Non-
distribution valves allow a “bypass” fluid path where the fluid
flows through the valve without entering the syringe. The
number of ports on the valve is determined by the number
of possible fluid paths. The syringe port counts as one of the
ports on a non-distribution valve.
