Single-Action Electrically Operated Air Directional Control Valves
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.
Normally closed valves block airflow until actuated.
Valves with spring return actuation go back to their original position when voltage is removed.
Manifold-mount valves plug into a manifold (sold separately) to create multiple actions from a single pressure input. Manifolds with multiple exhaust ports have one set of inlet and exhaust ports on each side, so they can be strung together in a series. When using a single manifold, cover the ports on the side you are not using with plugs (sold separately).
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 Electrically 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 4-way and 5/2 valves, they actuate when voltage is applied to the electrical connection. They direct airflow from the inlet to your equipment and exhaust return airflow to create motion.
Valves with spring return actuation go back to their original position when voltage is removed. Valves with electric (solenoid) return actuation go back to their original position when voltage is moved from the first solenoid to the second solenoid.
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.

Create motion and control the speed of that motion with a single valve. Also known as 4-way valves, these valves create two actions, such as extending and retracting a double-acting cylinder. They direct airflow from the inlet to your equipment and exhaust return airflow to create motion, and adjust the volume of air exiting an air cylinder (meter out) to control speed. Apply voltage to the electrical connection to actuate.
5/3 (closed center valves) close all ports in the off position to stop equipment in a locked position with air pressure holding it in place. 5/3 (pressure center) valves create two actions at the same time, such as extending two single-acting cylinders at once.
Valves with spring return actuation go back to their original position when voltage is removed. Valves with electric (solenoid) return actuation go back to their original position when voltage moves from the first solenoid to the second solenoid.
Flow coefficient (Cv) is a measurement that indicates how much airflow can pass through a valve.

Washdown-Resistant Electrically Operated Air Directional Control Valves
3-way valves create one action, such as extending a cylinder. 4-way valves create two actions, such as extending and then retracting a double-acting cylinder. 5/3 (closed center) valves close all ports in the off position to stop equipment in a locked position with air pressure holding it in place. Valves with spring return actuation go back to their original position when voltage is removed. Valves with electric (solenoid) return actuation go back to their original position when voltage moves from the first solenoid to the second solenoid. Valves with two exhaust ports allow you to independently control the speed of two different actions. Connect a flow control valve to each exhaust port. Flow coefficient (Cv) is a measurement that indicates how much airflow can pass through a valve.

Robot-Arm-Mounted Electrically Operated Air Directional Control Valves
With two 3-way integrated solenoid valves, these electrically controlled valves direct airflow to end-of-arm tools that don’t require vacuum suction, such as pick-and-place grippers. Also known as 3/2 valves, each of the two solenoid valves directs air to a different port. Use one of the valves for tools that have a single-acting cylinder, or both of the valves for those with a double-acting cylinder. The exhausted air creates the motion to move your tool. These valves are curved and have a foam mounting pad that fits collaborative robot arms. Secure them close to your tools, but out of the way, with the hook-and-loop straps.
These valves have a normally closed starting position, which means airflow is blocked until the valves are actuated. With spring return actuation, they will go back to their original position when the voltage is removed. All of the electrical connections you need are included.
Valves with 90° elbow M8 plug will work with FANUC CRX and Universal Robots models. They include a USB flash drive with software for Universal Robots, called URCap, that plugs into your teach pendant to program the valve.

Robot-Arm-Mounted Electrically Operated Air On/Off Valves
With two 2-way integrated solenoid valves, these electrically controlled valves direct airflow to venturi pumps, which generate the suction you need to run end-of-arm tools, such as vacuum cups. You can use the two solenoid valves with two different pumps to operate two vacuum cups, or use one valve with a pump and the other to create a burst of air for removing parts that may not drop when the airflow stops, such as those with adhesive on them. All of these valves are curved and have a foam mounting pad that fits collaborative robot arms. Use the hook-and-loop straps to secure them in place—close to your tools, but out of the way.
These valves have a vacuum switch that uses analog and PNP digital feedback to send information about your pump’s vacuum level to your controller. The switch has an LED display that shows the vacuum setting and status. Set and change the vacuum setting with push buttons. These valves have a normally closed starting position, which means airflow is blocked until the valves are actuated. All of the electrical connections you need are included.
