Compact Pneumatic Valves Offer High Performance
Festo launched a new generation of pneumatic valves which, it claims, offer “a size-to-performance ratio never before achieved by any other valve”. The VUVG valves are based on a patented cartridge design which achieves extremely high power densities and will allow smaller valves to be used than at present in around 90% of all applications. […]
Norgren Launches New Pneumatic Valve Series
Norgren announced the launch of a new value-minded pneumatic valve series, the V50-V53 offered in 1/8”, ¼”, 3/8” & ½” NPT or ISOG port sizes. The V5X range provides a complete offering of valve functions including: 3/2 & 5/2 solenoid/spring return (sol/sprg), 3/2 & 5/2 solenoid/solenoid (sol/sol), 5/3 All ports blocked (APB), Center open to […]
Pneumatic Valve Fieldbus Protocol with Sercos III and Ethernet/IP
The expansion of B-Design fieldbus components includes support for Sercos III and Ethernet/IP for valve manifold systems Series HF03-LG, HF04, and CD01/02-PI. The valves include body sizes with 10, 15, 18 and 26 mm widths. All electric pneumatic, supply and exhaust connections are on one plane for clean installation. Discrete output modules control up to […]
Bimba Introduces New OSHA-Compliant Safety Valve
Bimba Manufacturing introduces a new safety valve (lock out – tag out style) to its line of Air Preparation Products. Current OSHA and ANSI/PMMI standards1 require a lockout valve installed on all air-operated equipment to isolate the equipment from its air supply and to exhaust all downstream air pressure making the equipment safe for maintenance. […]

Reaction Flask Valve Has No “Hang-Up” During Drainage
The new Zero Dead Space (ZDS(TM)) valve is designed for larger reaction flasks from bench scale to pilot plant scale. This new valve, when in the full open position allows for complete product drainage and has no “hang-up” where material can be trapped or suspended. The product drains through openings in the valve stem and […]
Enfield Technologies Makes Proportional Pneumatic Control More Affordable
Thanks to some innovative engineering, Enfield Technologies has reached an important goal – making a complete proportional pneumatic control system much more affordable. A basic positioning system includes a proportional valve and control electronics manufactured by Enfield Technologies paired with a pneumatic actuator and a position sensor provided by a variety of highly regarded partner […]
Solenoid Valves Are No Match For Jet Valves
Festo is launching a new series of jet valves that are said to provide exceptionally rapid switching times of less than 1ms – an order of magnitude faster than standard pneumatic solenoid valves. Based on a new design featuring just one moving part, the new MHJ series jet valves also provide very high switching time […]
