The SuperKlean 3600BM-B-T Ball Valve Hot & Cold Water Mixing Station combines precise temperature control with fast on/off operation and built-in temperature monitoring, trusted by food, beverage, and pharmaceutical facilities worldwide. This complete hose station features bronze ball valves for quick shutoff and an adjustable angle stainless steel temperature gauge, allowing operators to verify water temperature at a glance during washdown procedures.
Engineered with a specially designed Y-style body, the 3600BM-B-T incorporates check valves and ball joint unions that provide superior flexibility during installation. The inlet center lines match standard industry dimensions, making replacement or new installations straightforward without costly modifications.
The ball valve design allows operators to turn water on and off without difficulty, and temperature can be set in just seconds. Unlike globe valve models that require multiple turns, ball valves provide quarter-turn operation for rapid response during busy production schedules. Once your preferred temperature is set, the ball valves maintain that setting for consistent results. The included temperature gauge ensures operators maintain proper sanitation temperatures for food safety compliance.
Every 3600BM-B-T ships complete with bronze ball valves for quick operation, check valves to prevent backflow, a 304 stainless steel hose rack for convenient hose storage, a mounting plate for easy behind-the-unit cleanup, and an adjustable angle stainless steel temperature gauge for accurate readings. This all-in-one package means faster installation with no additional hardware to source.
The brass body and bronze valve construction handle maximum pressures of 150 PSI and temperatures up to 200°F (93°C), delivering reliable performance in demanding industrial environments. At just 16 lbs, this unit offers easier handling during installation compared to heavier alternatives.

The 3600BM-B-T excels in wineries, breweries, food processing plants, beverage production, dairy operations, pharmaceutical manufacturing, restaurants, bakeries, cheese production, and general industrial sanitation. The included temperature gauge is particularly valuable in facilities where maintaining specific water temperatures is critical for sanitation protocols or regulatory compliance. Ball valve operation is favored in facilities where operators need to quickly turn water on and off multiple times per shift.
The adjustable angle gauge can be positioned for optimal visibility from the operator's working position, making temperature verification quick and easy during fast-paced washdown operations.
Note: The 3600BM Series is designed for hot and cold water mixing only. For steam applications, see the DuraMix 8000 Series steam and cold water mixing stations.
FAQ
What is the difference between the 3600BM-B and 3600BM-B-T? The 3600BM-B-T includes an adjustable angle stainless steel temperature gauge for monitoring water temperature during washdown. The 3600BM-B does not include a temperature gauge.
What is the difference between ball valve and globe valve mixing stations? Ball valves provide quick quarter-turn on/off operation, ideal for fast-paced environments. Globe valves offer more precise gradual temperature adjustment. Both maintain temperature settings once configured.
What is the maximum pressure rating for the 3600BM-B-T mixing station? The 3600BM-B-T Ball Valve Hot & Cold Water Mixing Station has a maximum operating pressure of 150 PSI.
What temperature can the 3600BM-B-T handle? The 3600BM-B-T is rated for water temperatures up to 200°F (93°C), with the included temperature gauge allowing operators to monitor output temperature.
What is included with the 3600BM-B-T hose station? The 3600BM-B-T includes the brass mixing body, 2 bronze ball valves with color-coded levers, check valves, a 304 stainless steel hose rack, mounting plate, ball joint unions, and a stainless steel adjustable angle temperature gauge.
What inlet size does the 3600BM-B-T use? The 3600BM-B-T features 3/4 inch NPT inlet and outlet connections, matching standard industry dimensions for easy installation or replacement.
How heavy is the 3600BM-B-T mixing station? The 3600BM-B-T Ball Valve Hot & Cold Water Mixing Station weighs 16 pounds (7.3 kg).
What is the warranty on the 3600BM-B-T? The 3600BM-B-T comes with a full 5-year no questions asked warranty—the longest in the industry.
Why choose a model with a temperature gauge? The temperature gauge allows operators to verify water temperature at a glance, ensuring proper sanitation temperatures are maintained for food safety compliance and consistent cleaning results.
