Pneumatic valves, also called directional control valves, are activated in a variety of ways including manually, solenoid operated, and air piloted. Directional control solenoid valves use an electrical coil to control the position of a poppet, plunger, or spool to open or close a valve. Typical solenoid control voltages are 12VDC, 24 VAC/DC, 120VAC or 240VAC. Solenoid valves distribute air to cylinders, grippers, nozzles, and many other pneumatic devices, and are available in a range of body styles and operating characteristics. Modular solenoid valve banks and electro-pneumatic systems reduce wiring and plumbing, and increase control simplicity.

Solenoid valves are a popular control device in pneumatic systems and allow control of various pneumatic devices using electrical signals.
Solenoid valves are available in standalone valves, units for modular and electro-pneumatic systems, and ISO 5599/1 sized models designed to work seamlessly with systems that comply with the ISO 5599/1 standard.
Manifolds simplify installation and reduce the amount of plumbing needed for multiple standalone valves or, in the case of modular valves, help create a valve bank assembly. Select manifolds are supplied with gaskets and hardware; blanking plates are used to cover unused slots. Bases are required for ISO 5599/1 solenoid valves and can be stacked to create a modular manifold.
Solenoid valve control interfaces allow simplified wiring by providing a bus coupler for an electro-pneumatic system or a modular valve bank to be controlled via an EtherNet/IP master; electrical distribution blocks streamline individual solenoid valve wiring.
The NITRA Pneumatic Automation Link (PAL) system is a modular, electro-pneumatic set of components that can include electrical I/O or pneumatic valves or both. Several I/O modules are available offering discrete DC input and outputs, analog inputs with support for various current and voltage ranges, and temperature inputs. The PAL system can support a combination of 16 digital input modules, 16 digital output modules, 4 analog input modules, and 4 analog output modules.
Accessories are available to assist with the installation and configuration of the various series and styles of solenoid valves, including:
