solution of fire safe for 3/4-way valves

Solution of 3/4-Way Fire Safe Valve

The fire safe test ask the ball to block the port after firing to keep from inner leakage.  For 3/4-way valve, you'll have 3 ports but only one ball.  That's why no one can make this happen, the only one ball can't block 3 or 4 ports.

The solution Zipson offer is to use suitable seals on multi-way valve to prevent from outer leakage while firing, and set 3 or 4 fire safe valves on each port. These 2-way fire safe valves will block the media by their fire safe design.
