The AVS-5 series now includes single and double-pilot directional control air pilot valves, offering spring return or center closed operation. All are body ported five-port (four-way) spool valves and are available in 1/8- to 1/2-inch NPT port sizes with flow coefficients from 0.67 to 2.79. NITRA CVS series directional control foot pedal valves are five-port (four-way) spool valves designed for non-electrical operator control applications. Available in momentary or latching operation models, foot pedal valves feature a 1/4-inch NPT port with a flow coefficient of 0.80. Manual valves in toggle-style hand lever, push-pull, and rotary-style hand lever models have also been added. Constructed with aluminum alloy bodies, available port sizes are 1/8- to 1/2-inch NPT with flow coefficients from 0.78 to 5.29.
