Angle and Inline Valves Options Guide

From MDC Vacuum Products LLC
 

 
MDC angle and inline valves are available with precision mechanical position indicator (MPI) option. The MPI system consists of two single pole, double-throw micro switches mounted on top of the pneumatic actuator air cylinder. Each micro switch is wired in the normally open position. Wiring in a normally closed position

Products & Services
Limit switches are electromechanical or solid state devices that require the physical contact of an object with the switch’s actuator to make the contacts change state. Search by Specification | Learn more about Limit Switches
Dual in-line package (DIP) switches are electronic packages that consist of a series of tiny switches. DIP switches are used to configure computers and peripherals such as circuit boards and modems. Search by Specification | Learn more about DIP Switches
Slide switches are mechanical switches defined by their method of activation. The switch is a slider that moves (slides) from position to position.  Search by Specification | Learn more about Slide Switches
Valve position indicators are devices that show the position of the closure element. Search by Specification | Learn more about Valve Position Indicators
Pushbutton switches are mechanical switches defined by the method used to activate the switch. The activation method is typically in the form of a plunger that is pushed down to open or close the switch. Search by Specification | Learn more about Pushbutton Switches
