Key Features
- 2-Position 3-Way Design: Enables switching between two flow paths - ideal for diverting, mixing, or alternating air/gas channels in pneumatic circuits.
- 12V DC Operation: Directly compatible with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, relay modules, and standard 12V power supplies for seamless integration into electronic projects.
- Ultra-Compact Form Factor: Miniature size fits easily into tight enclosures, robotic assemblies, and portable devices without adding bulk.
- Fast Response Time: Rapid switching (<=50 ms) ensures precise, real-time control of air and gas flow in automated systems.
- Low Power Consumption: Energy-efficient design allows continuous operation without overheating or excessive battery drain.
- Normally Closed Configuration: Valve remains closed when de-energized, providing fail-safe operation and preventing unintended gas/air release.
- Quiet Operation: Minimal audible noise during switching, suitable for indoor, medical, and laboratory environments.
- Lightweight & Durable: Engineering polymer body resists wear while keeping overall weight low for mobile and drone applications.
