5/2-way impulse valve, pneumatically operated
The pneumatic valve is controlled by applying reciprocal pilot pressures at connection 14 (flow passes from 1 to 4) and connection 12 (flow passes from 1 to 2). The valve's operating position remains until an opposite signal is received by the valve.
This valve is derived from a configurable 5/n way valve. You find this valve in the component library Frequently used Way Valves
, under the menu.
