Description
Clorius M3F Three-Way Control Valve (DN80–DN150)
Heavy-Duty Three-Way Control Valve for Industrial Temperature Regulation
The Clorius M3F DN80–DN150 is a heavy-duty three-way globe control valve engineered for accurate regulation of water, lubricating oil, and other compatible liquid media. Designed for mixing or diverting service, the valve is commonly installed with Clorius thermostatic, electric, or pneumatic actuators in district heating, industrial process plants, marine installations, and central heating systems. The DN80–DN150 version features a PN10 nodular cast iron body with aluminium bronze seats and cone, providing excellent durability and dependable long-term performance.

Benefits
Precise Temperature Regulation
The M3F provides stable modulation of flow in industrial heating and cooling systems. Its balanced dual-seat design minimizes actuator force while delivering smooth and accurate control over a wide operating range.
Designed for Large Flow Applications
With nominal sizes from DN80 to DN150, the valve is ideal for large-capacity district heating substations, industrial heat exchangers, marine cooling systems, and central energy plants where high flow rates are required.
Robust Industrial Construction
The valve body is manufactured from EN-GJS-400-15 nodular cast iron, while the seats and cone are produced from aluminium bronze for outstanding wear resistance. The stainless steel spindle ensures smooth operation and long service life.
Flexible Installation
The M3F can be installed as either a mixing valve or a diverting valve. For diverting applications, the valve remains fully functional, although pressure loss increases and the effective Kvs value is reduced compared with mixing service.
Typical Applications
The Clorius M3F DN80–DN150 is widely used in:
- District heating substations
- Central heating plants
- Industrial process temperature control
- Heat exchanger systems
- Marine engine cooling systems
- Lubricating oil systems
- HVAC heating networks
- Process water circulation
- Industrial utility systems.
