ABSTRACT:
A three-way divert valve has a body assembly including first and second axially aligned ports and a third port extending generally perpendicularly to the first and second ports. A flow control member is slidably positioned for linear movement within the body assembly for selectively regulating flow through the first, second and third ports. The flow control member has a first structure for permitting normal flow between the first and second ports, and a second structure for diverting flow from the first port to the third port. The first structure is comprised of a generally cylindrical disc slidably mounted within the body assembly below the first and second ports during normal flow, and the second structure is comprised of a baffling surface extending downwardly from the disc and terminating at a lower portion of the body assembly.
