Design The 2/2-way stem-actuated valve is fitted on a mounting plate via an intermediate
plate that incorporates two quick coupling connectors. The unit is mounted on the
slotted assembly board using the rotary system with the blue knurled nut
(mounting variant „B“).
The valve consists of: Piston (1), housing (2), spring (3), spring disc (4), rod (5),
stem (6), ball bearing (7).

Function Used for flow rate control, this valve is mechanically actuated and facilitates the
realisation of stroke-dependent switching actions.
The sectional view of the valve shows the normal position with flow from P to A,
whereby the piston (1) is pressed into its end position by the spring (3). If actuated,
a cam or a linear stem is pressed against the ball bearing (7) and pushes the piston
(1) back against the spring.
By virtue of its design the valve is a 4/2-way valve with lateral/parallel porting, but
only two ports are used.
