Humphrey Products’ pneumatic solenoid valves offer design engineers high-flow efficiency in two-way, three-way, and four-way functions. Our valves accommodate nearly any media, including compressed air, vacuum, and inert gases.
Leading manufacturers prefer the compact, efficient and reliable designs of our pneumatic solenoid valves, and they also benefit from our application experience and the control we maintain over our manufacturing processes.
All Humphrey Products’ pneumatic solenoid valve models are produced with precision machined or molded valve bodies, achieving close tolerance sealing surfaces and the industry’s lowest leak rates. In fact, many of our pneumatic solenoid valve models are deemed “bubble-tight” in application.
Direct-acting valve types feature compact, fast-switching, Balanced Poppet designs. These multi-purpose valves ensure dependable performance regardless of supply pressure, pressure fluctuations, or valve piping, such as:
Direct-acting pneumatic solenoid valves offer advantages including:
These valves use direct-acting solenoid valves as their pilot operators. The pilot operator shifts a larger directional control valve of diaphragm-poppet or piston poppet design.
Pilot-operated pneumatic solenoid valves offer:
