Notes and usage guidance

• Intended use: Manual toggle actuation for directional control in pneumatic systems where a compact, low‑flow 3‑way valve is required.
• Threaded exhaust: The MTV‑3 threaded‑exhaust variant allows connection of an exhaust line or muffler; confirm porting and thread form before plumbing.
• Pressure guidance: Some datasheets list a conservative 150 psig input rating for normal operation while others list 300 psig as a maximum; use the lower value for continuous service unless manufacturer confirms otherwise.
