Air Pilot Actuator Selection
Category:
 |
MPA series air pilot actuators attach to the top of our miniature 2-Way, 3-Way, and 4-Way valves and electric switches via a #15/32-32 mounting thread to provide pressure pilot actuation from a pneumatic signal. |

All data is tested using 100 psi on the valves supply port. Different line pressures to the valve may result in different minimum pilot pressures required to shift the valve.
