    About Directional Control Valves

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

    These valves create one action, such as extending a cylinder. Apply voltage to the electrical connection to actuate. Also known as 3-way and 3/2 valves, they direct airflow from the inlet to your equipment and exhaust return airflow to create motion. In the off position, they exhaust air from the system, allowing equipment to reset so the action can be repeated. Valves without an exhaust connection exhaust air to the atmosphere.

    Fail-closed valves block airflow until actuated.
    Spring Return—Valves with spring return actuation go back to their original position when voltage is removed.
    Flow Coefficient (Cv)—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.

    Valves that are both fail closed and fail open can be installed to block airflow, or allow air to flow until actuated.
    Fail-closed valves block airflow until actuated.
    Spring Return—Valves with spring return actuation go back to their original position when voltage is removed.
    Flow Coefficient (Cv)—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.
