Pneumatic valves
TC08 and TC15 valves provide flow rates of 0.8
and 1.5 CV, and are 17 or 21 mm wide, respectively.
Single valves can be flange-mounted to
any flat surface, and modular manifold system
has up to 12 valve positions. They come with
choice of inch ( and …-in. NPT) or ISO-G
(G and G…) ports. Valve manifold has low height because it does not need
subbases.
