Product Description
The VA Series Compact Air-operated On-Off valves from Assured Automation are a great substitute for a ball valve.
They combine a valve and actuator into a streamlined body that provides the following advantages:
- Compact - takes less space and weighs less
- No moving external parts - greater safety
- Fast-acting - much faster than a ball valve while still providing high flow capacity
- Less air consumption - lower operating costs
- High cycle-life - long service life - tested to well over 1 million cycles
- Repairable - seal replacement kits available
- COSTS LESS!

How Does it Work?
The models offered here are all spring return. They use air to open and then springs to close them. This is referred to as "normally closed" or "fail closed" because they remain closed until compressed air is supplied to open them. If either the air pressure or power to the solenoid valve is lost, they will return to the closed position.
