3/2-way roller lever valve, one-way idle return, ball-bearing steel roller, G 1/4, 700 l/min, 0 to 8 bar - YPC YMV410

The idle-return roller lever folds away in one direction and only actuates when the cam approaches from the other side. That way this 3/2-way roller lever valve reports a position once per stroke, delivering 700 l/min through G 1/4 ports.

Advantages

• Effective area of 16.0 mm² for 700 l/min, enough for small cylinders or as a pilot signal to a larger valve.
• Runs without a lubricator on filtered compressed air, lubricated or not, and on inert gases from 0 to 8 bar.
• Supply can be connected to any port, so the same valve can be plumbed as normally open or normally closed.
• Ball-bearing steel roller that turns freely and wears little, even when it is run over frequently.
• Idle return: travelling the other way, the lever folds back without actuating the valve.

Applications

• Reversing a reciprocating motion without a second signal on the return stroke
• Sensing an intermediate position that should only count in one direction of travel
• Cycle control on feed units where the cam passes the lever in both directions
