What does “1/4 turn waterless ceramic disc valve” mean — will the handle only turn 1/4 way?

Question

I am purchasing a replacement faucet/spout a for very old (1940s) kitchen sink with a curved backsplash. The backsplash limits the turn space of the faucet handles -- they may bump into the back at a full turn.

Since the specifications include the statement "1/4 turn washerless ceramic disc value cartridge" would that mean the handles only need to move 1/4 turn? If so, I can use the longer handles, otherwise not.

Answer 1

Yes, 1/4 turn valves are inline=on, perpendicular=off, no multiple turns needed.
