It has an internal pilot system that automatically supplies and directs compressed air, so you don't have to operate it manually. The valve can be either NO or NC (normally open or normally closed) and has a flow rate of 1300l/min, so you can attach it safely to high-pressure systems. It's encased in protective wrought-aluminium alloy material, which is resistant to rust. Use this valve in your industrial machines to distribute and mix gases.

This monostable valve is also referred to as a single-acting valve. When electrical actuation takes place, the valve becomes energised and active. If the power is cut off, it quickly returns to its base position thanks to the mechanical spring reset.
