It is designed to direct or shut off fluid flow in pneumatic or hydraulic control circuits. The valve features 1\/4 inch NPT inlet and outlet ports and a Cv rating of 0.83, making it suitable for moderate flow applications. It operates across a working pressure range of 0 to 150 psi and a temperature range of 32 to 175 degrees F. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and fluid power technicians typically install this type of valve in industrial and mechanical systems requiring manual directional control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis valve is used in applications where an operator needs to manually shift flow direction between two circuit paths and release to return to the default position. The lever-manual return design means the valve shifts when the lever is actuated and returns to its original position when released. It is commonly installed in compressed air, hydraulic, or fluid distribution systems in industrial, commercial, and light manufacturing environments. Three ports allow for flexible circuit routing in directional control applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-way, 2-position configuration for directional flow control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLever-manual return actuator for operator-controlled shifting with automatic spring return\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch NPT inlet and outlet ports for standard pipe thread connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCv rating of 0.83 for moderate flow capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating pressure range of 0 to 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTemperature range of 32 to 175 degrees F (0 to 80 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style directional control valve for pneumatic and fluid power systems requiring a 3-way, 2-position mechanically operated valve with 1\/4 inch NPT port connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, fluid power technician, or licensed plumber. De-pressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any valve. Use appropriate thread sealant on NPT connections and verify port orientation matches the intended circuit design before applying pressure. Follow applicable local mechanical codes and the system manufacturer guidelines when integrating directional control valves into pressurized circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Design\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-Way, 2-Position\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActuator Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lever-Manual Return\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReturn Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Ports\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Positions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCv Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.83\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 32 degrees F (0 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 175 degrees F (80 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PARKER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 524831000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541201092914,"sku":"524831000","price":291.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/38fa63e467445aa5dc71fd98e4653c73.jpg?v=1785870019","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-524831000-3-way-2-position-valve-1-4-inch-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
