What Port Sizes and Flow Ratings Are Offered?
Models shown use 1/8 in or 1/4 in NPT side ports with flow ratings from 7.5 SCFM up to 79 SCFM, depending on the series.
What Return Types Can I Choose?
Options include manual return, spring-centered, and detent. Choose the style that matches your required default spool position and operator feel.
How Do I Pick the Right Valve?
OConfirm the actuator type, select 3-way or 4-way, and the number of positions, check the NPT port size and SCFM requirement, then choose the operator. For assistance, contact us or see Repair Services.
