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.
Normally closed valves block airflow until actuated. Valves that are both normally closed and normally open can be installed to block airflow, or allow flow until actuated.
Valves with spring return actuation go back to their original position when voltage is removed.
