T
h
e Series AP Air Pressure pilot valves are designed for
applications such as injection molding, lab equipment, or
others that require frequent outlet pressure changes. The
required Air PRV Regulator allows remote adjustment of
the outlet steam pressure.
Lightweight, compact size prevents strain on mounting
pipes
Tight shut-off provided by hardened stainless steel pin
and seat
Packless construction eliminates seals that wear out
and leak
Travel stop and cover on diaphragm helps prevent over
pressurization damage
Removable strainer helps prevent debris from
entering pilot
No bias relay required
Compatible with Pneumatic Temperature Pilots
Maximum temperature 450°F (232°C)
Maximum operating pressure 250 psig (17.3 bar)
