Jabsco Y-Valve Two Position Diverter Valve – 1½" & 1" Ports for Marine Waste Systems

The Jabsco Y-Valve Two Position Diverter Valve (Model 45490-1000) is designed to give boat owners complete control over their waste disposal system. This valve enables waste to be diverted to an onboard holding tank or discharged overboard where local regulations allow, making it ideal for vessels operating in no-discharge zones.

Manufactured from robust polypropylene with stainless steel hardware, the valve resists chemicals and corrosion commonly found in marine environments, ensuring long-term reliability. Its rotatable ports allow flexible hose routing to suit a variety of plumbing layouts, while the padlockable selector lever provides added security, preventing accidental or unauthorised switching of waste direction.

The Y-Valve features multiple inlet options, including 1½" and 1" ports, and an optional shaft extension allows installation through bulkheads up to 1¾" thick, with only the selector handle exposed for convenient operation. This thoughtful design makes installation straightforward and adaptable to different vessel layouts.

With the Jabsco Y-Valve, boat owners can confidently manage waste, maintain compliance with local environmental rules, and ensure their sanitation system operates efficiently and safely.
