About Air Valves

Air valves allow metered flow of fluid in one or both directions. Many of them allow for free flow in one direction and reduced or metered flow in the reverse direction. They are used in pneumatic circuits to regulate the rate of activation or exhaust of cylinders and other pneumatic devices. Air valves can be configured in-line or at right angles. In an in-line configuration the input and output ports are on the same axis. In a right angle configuration the input and output ports are perpendicular.

Products & Services Related to Air Valves

Air Pressure Regulators

Air pressure regulators control pressure in air lines (usually adjustable) to remove fluctuations and maintain consistent pressure for pneumatic devices.

Control Valves

Control valves or proportional valves are power-operated devices used to modify fluid flow or pressure rate in a process system.

Diaphragm Valves

Diaphragm valves close by means of a flexible diaphragm attached to a compressor.

Plastic Valves

Plastic valves are made from plastic materials and are used in applications that require corrosion resistance and/or chemical handling.

Plug Valves

Quarter-turn plug valves use a cylindrical or tapered plug with a hole in the center to control straight through flow when in the open position.

Pressure Regulators

Pressure regulators are used to maintain a constant outlet pressure or flow.

Sanitary Valves

Sanitary valves are designed for applications requiring clean or sterile processing.
