AIR VALVES FOR INDUSTRY SINCE 1949

Two-Way Types for bleeding pilots of larger valves, for

bleeding cylinders or small pressure systems, operating air
tools or motors, opening or closing air lines.
Three-Way Types for controlling pilots or diaphragms of
larger valves or small cylinders...or any pressure system
that is alternately pressurized and exhausted.
Service: Pneumatic-vacuum to 200 psi (14 bar). Two way
can be used for hydraulic pressures to 500 psi.

Note: All Series “B” valves utilize the basic design and parts of the button-operated types shown below.
Basic dimensions and parts lists shown on page 7. Those parts listed and dimensions shown for specific
valve types, are required in addition to or in place of the basic parts and dimensions shown on page 7.

PLAIN BUTTON WITHOUT GUARD: For palm, finger, knee, or straight-line

mechanical operation. Can also be cam actuated if cam rise
is gradual. Aluminum button is 3/16” above valve body, the
distance required for full actuation. Nominal operating force is

MANIFOLD MOUNTING TYPE

Any of the standard Series “B” Valves can be supplied for manifold
mounting. Gasketed ports are provided on one of the flats of the
body. Valves can be grouped on a common multiple manifold, as
shown below. A common inlet supplies all valves on the manifold.
Custom designs are also available.

Consult factory for information about types of multiple manifolds available.
