Finding similar 3-way ball valve

[IUfan]

I'm looking for something like this:

Just wondering if anyone knows of something similar but that is less expensive?

Need it for a fully submerged application? (aka all plastic?)

 

[IUfan]

It won't be submerged, just a way to isolate a frag tank that's plumbed into my main system, should the need come up.

I would like it to be all PVC though

The banjo one listed above is top notch. I use quite a few of them on pump systems at work.

I wish they made it in slip

It is slip. If you click on the specification tab, it says the valve is supplied with NPT and Socket connectors. This is a very common practice with PVC valve connectors, ships with both connection types.

Socket = slip. Same thing.

They are talking about the Banjo one not the original expensive Valworx one..

Thanks, I'll give the banjo one a try

Out of curiosity, why not just use 3 regular valves? Must be about 20x cheaper....

3 valves will take up more physical space
The banjo one isn't nearly 20x the price here.. But yes.. that first one they found $100+ was pricey.. Hence the hunt for a lower cost unit I'm sure..

 

[IUfan]

Yeah, it is because of physical space.

I've been looking for the same valve, I have seen them listed on Ebay, but not very often. $125 seems to be the average price for new.
