Miniature Snap-Acting Switches

Smaller than standard size snap-acting switches, these fit in tight spaces. They open and close circuits quickly to minimize arcing and prevent contacts from sticking. They’re often used as door-open indicators on appliances and enclosures or as an internal component in limit, pressure, and temperature switches.

Snap-Acting Switches





Open and close circuits quickly to minimize arcing and prevent contacts from sticking. These switches are often used as door-open indicators on appliances and enclosures or as an internal component in limit, pressure, and temperature switches.
Plastic covers (sold separately) are compatible with switches with screw terminals. They fit over the bottom of the switch to prevent contact with live terminals.

Single-Action Mechanically Operated Air Directional Control Valves




A simple automation solution that requires no programming, these valves are activated when an object, such as a box rolling on a conveyor, pushes the actuator. Also known as 3-way and 3/2 valves, they create one action, such as extending a cylinder. Valves direct airflow from the inlet to your equipment and exhaust return airflow to create motion. They're normally closed to normally block airflow, and remain closed until actuated. Return actuation is by spring, so they go back to their starting position as soon as the actuator is released. In the off position, they exhaust air pressure from the system, allowing equipment to reset so the action can be repeated.
Valves with a two-direction actuator are activated by objects from both sides.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is a measurement that indicates how much airflow can pass through a valve. When selecting between valves with the same port size, choose the valve with the higher flow coefficient to ensure it provides enough airflow to operate your system.

Two-Speed Two-Action Mechanically Operated Air Directional Control Valves





Often used to extend and then retract a cylinder at different speeds, these valves create two actions and have two exhaust ports, which allows you to control the speed of each action by attaching a flow control valve to each exhaust port. A simple automation solution that requires no programming, they activate when an object, such as a box rolling on a conveyor, pushes the actuator. They direct airflow from the inlet to your equipment and exhaust return airflow to create motion. Return actuation is by spring, so they go back to their original position as soon the actuator is released. Also known as 4-way and 5/2 valves.
Valves with a two-direction actuator are activated by objects from both sides.
NPTF (Dryseal) threads are compatible with NPT threads.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is a measurement that indicates how much airflow can pass through a valve.

Two-Action Air Directional Control Valves

Also known as 4-way and 4/2 valves, these valves create two actions, such as extending and then retracting a double-acting cylinder. They direct airflow from the inlet to your equipment and exhaust return airflow to create motion.
Valves with spring return actuation return to their original position as soon as you release the actuator.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is a measurement that indicates how much airflow can pass through a valve.
