    Choose the right valve for your application by matching the actions you'll power to our flow diagrams.

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

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Directional Control Valves. Two-Speed Two-Action Air-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. Also known as pilot valves and 4-way valves, they use an air signal to actuate, so they're good for environments where electrical use may be dangerous. They direct airflow from the inlet to your equipment and exhaust return airflow to create motion.
    Spring Return—Valves with spring return actuation go back to their starting position as soon as the air supply is removed.
    Air-Assisted Spring Return—Valves with air-assisted spring return actuation require you to supply air to port P to go back to their starting position.
    Air Return—Valves with air return actuation go back to their starting position when the air supply is moved from the first air pilot to the second air pilot.
    NPTF Inlet Thread—NPTF (Dryseal) threads are compatible with NPT threads.
    Flow Coefficient (Cv)—Flow coefficient (Cv) indicates how much airflow can pass through a valve.

    Single-Action Air-Operated Air Directional Control Valves

    These valves create one action, such as extending a cylinder. Also known as 3/2 or pilot valves, they use an air signal to actuate, so they're good for environments where electrical use may be dangerous. They direct airflow from an inlet to your equipment and exhaust return airflow to create motion. In the off position, they exhaust air pressure from the system, allowing equipment to reset so the action can be repeated.

    Spring Return—Valves with spring return actuation go back to their starting position as soon as the air supply is removed.
    Air Return—Valves with air return actuation go back to their starting position when the air supply is moved from the first air pilot to the second air pilot.
    Valve Position—Fail-closed valves normally block airflow, and remain closed until actuated. Valves that are both fail closed and fail open can be installed to normally block airflow, or to normally allow flow and remain open until actuated.
    Flow Coefficient (Cv)—Flow coefficient (Cv) indicates how much airflow can pass through a valve.

    In the off position, these valves stop equipment in a locked position with air pressure holding it in place. Often used to extend and then retract a cylinder at different speeds, they 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. They actuate by air signal, so they're good for environments where electrical use may be dangerous. Valves direct airflow from the inlet to your equipment and exhaust return airflow to create motion. Return actuation is by air, so they go back to their starting position when the air supply is moved from the first air pilot to the second air pilot. Also known as 4-way and 5/3 closed center valves.

    To divert flow between ports more quickly than motor-driven valves, these operate on compressed air. You must control the air to the actuator using either the included electric pilot valve or a manual on/off valve (not included). Valves don’t require a minimum pressure drop between the inlet and outlet for operation. The actuator is directly mounted to the valve body to minimize movement and wear. Valves are standard port, so they slightly restrict flow.
    Air-to-Divert/Air-to-Return—Air-to-divert/air-to-return valves require air pressure to divert flow to the right-port outlet and air pressure to return flow to the left-port outlet.
    Air-to-Divert/Spring Return—Air-to-divert/spring-return valves require air pressure to divert flow to the right-port outlet. They automatically return flow to the left-port outlet when the air turns off to ensure the valve only diverts flow to the right port when air is on.
    Flow Coefficient (Cv)—Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.

    With an integrated valve and multiple mounting options, these air cylinders install quickly, right where you need them, to push and pull light loads. In addition to saving you setup time, the built-in valve reduces the number of air connection points in your system to cut down on air loss. They have threaded holes on the face and sides for mounting either directly to equipment or using attachments. These air cylinders are double acting, meaning they extend and retract with nearly equal force.
    The magnetic piston inside these cylinders can activate relays and controllers when used with a sensor (sold separately). When the piston moves past the sensor, the sensor activates. You can use multiple sensors—attach one for each action to trigger.

    Automatically divert flow between ports in flanged pipelines with these valves that operate on compressed air for faster actuation than motor-driven valves. You must control the air to the actuator using either an electric pilot valve (sold separately) or a manual on/off valve (not included). Valves do not require a minimum pressure drop between the inlet and outlet for operation. Valves are standard port, so they slightly restrict flow.
    The actuator is secured to the valve body with a bracket for easy disassembly, maintenance, and repair. A visual flow indicator on the top of the actuator shows which direction flow is being diverted.
    Air-to-Divert/Air-to-Return—Air-to-divert/air-to-return valves require air pressure to divert flow to the right-port outlet and air pressure to return flow to the left-port outlet.
    Air-to-Divert/Spring Return—Air-to-divert/spring-return valves require air pressure to divert flow to the right-port outlet. They automatically return flow to the left-port outlet when the air turns off to ensure the valve only diverts flow to the right port when air is on.
    Flow Coefficient (Cv)—Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.

    For food and beverage systems that require frequent cleaning, these valves have sanitary quick-clamp connections for easy disassembly. They operate on compressed air to divert flow between ports between ports more quickly than motor-driven valves. You must control the air supply to the actuator using either an electric pilot valve (not included) or a manual on/off valve (not included). These valves don’t require a minimum pressure drop between the inlet and outlet for operation. All are full port, so they do not restrict flow.
    Body is 316 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance. The actuator is directly mounted to the valve body to minimize movement and wear. A visual flow indicator on the top of the actuator shows which direction flow is being diverted.
    Air-to-Divert/Air-to-Return—Air-to-divert/air-to-return valves require air pressure to divert flow to the right-port outlet and air pressure to return flow to the left-port outlet.
    Air-to-Divert/Spring Return—Air-to-divert/spring-return valves require air pressure to divert flow to the right-port outlet. They automatically return flow to the left-port outlet when the air turns off to ensure the valve only diverts flow to the right port when air is on.
    Flow Coefficient (Cv)—Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.

    Often used in sanitary valve manifolds, these valves can be cleaned in place to eliminate the risk of cross contamination in food, beverage, and dairy lines. They are 3-A certified and electropolished to a 23 Ra finish for smooth internal surfaces that prevent product buildup and inhibit bacteria growth to maintain sanitary standards. All have sanitary quick-clamp fittings for easy disassembly. Valves operate on compressed air to automatically divert flow between ports more quickly than motor-driven valves. You must control the air to the actuator using either an electric pilot valve (not included) or a manual on/off valve (not included). Body is 316 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance. The actuator is secured to the valve body with a bracket for easy disassembly, maintenance, and repair.
