Default Amal Valve Lettering?

Just coming to replace ny amal valve with a known working second hand one to make sure i put "this one" on correctly because i am unsure if the one thats on is fitted right i need to know what the lettering on the amal valve represents.

There is and R C W on the valve so what do these letters represent as to where the hoses go i, below is a pic so you can see what i mean
