Versa VSI-3301-316 Stainless Steel Three-Way Valve

The Versa VSI-3301-316 is a robust three-way directional control valve designed for precise fluid or air flow management in industrial pneumatic systems. Manufactured by Versa Products Company, this valve features a durable 316 stainless steel construction, providing exceptional resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and extreme environments, making it suitable for applications in chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, marine, and oil & gas industries. It operates as a 3/2 valve with manual push-pull actuation via a black mushroom knob, allowing for quick and reliable switching between positions without the need for electrical power. Key benefits include high reliability, low maintenance, and compatibility with a wide range of media, including air, inert gases, and light oils. Advantages over similar products from competitors like Parker or SMC include superior material quality for longer service life and better performance in harsh conditions, though it may have a higher upfront cost compared to brass or aluminum alternatives. Drawbacks could include its manual operation limiting automation potential. The valve supports vacuum to 200 psi pressure ranges and is compact for easy integration into control panels or machinery. Based on image analysis, this unit appears new in original packaging, with no visible wear, scratches, or damage, and includes faceplate details such as part number 252215.2-1 and pressure rating VAC-200. No parent/child assets like attached sensors are evident.
