3 way needle valves

Hi Guys,
Im trying to tidy up this section of my design

I found this 3 way needle valve and was wondering if something like this would tidy up that whole assembly.

Anyone have experience with these 3 way valves, used to control the LM reflux. Also it has something called swagelok pipe fitting, which I am interpreting as a built in compression fitting? is this right.

After proposed change. Will it be a good solution? Can anyone comment on if the Swaglok pipe fitting means compression fitting?

After a recommendation from mcstill I gave swagelok a call. These things will work awesome! This thing is gonna be sexy. I just hope I dont have super bodgy soldering skills.
