Multi-port diverter valve

摘要

A valve assembly includes a housing that defines a fluid inlet and three outlets. A cartridge defining a fluid chamber includes an inlet boss that is inserted within an inlet port. The cartridge includes outlet seats engagable with any one or a combination of two outlet ports. Rotation of the cartridge selectively engages the outlet seats with any one or combination of two outlet ports. A cap retains the cartridge within the bore and is moveable between a first position that holds the cartridge in fluid communication with the inlet port to direct the fluid to specific designated outlet ports and a second position where the cartridge is free from the inlet port and allows fluid flow between the inlet port and all of the outlet ports independent of the cartridge assembly.
