Air Pilot Operated Valves
Air Pilot operated valves are recommended where it is desirable to
substitute pilot air circuitry to replace solenoid operated valves.
Typical applications would be where electrically operated valving
would present a fire or explosion hazard. With controlled pilot signals
air pilot systems have comparable response to electrically operated
valves and in many cases system response is enhanced by their use.
