There are many different options in pneumatic push button valves or switches. They are practical and easy to install in any type of system, and they can be found in a range of sizes to work with small diameter pipe and tubing to larger diameter systems.

A pneumatic push button switch can be used in outdoor applications, such agricultural or heavy equipment, as well as in very precise types of systems like those found in dental offices, laboratories or other types of industrial processing applications. They are ideal in any type of application where the flow of the material going through the valve has to be immediately stopped, started or redirected, all with the simple push of the external button to the valve.

Multiple Design Options

A quick search on any website featuring pneumatic push button valves provides a good overview of all the different options and configurations to consider. For special systems, new equipment designs or for specific types of switches not readily available, it is possible to choose a custom designed pneumatic push button switch that is uniquely developed to meet the specific requirements.

Different options to consider including offering a swivel option, side ports, a quick exhaust valve or a panel or non-panel mount design. It is essential to know if the valve needs to be normally closed or normally open, with most of these valves designed in the normally closed configuration.

There is also the option to choose if it is an exhausting or non-exhausting flow valve. There can be two and three-way configurations to consider, as well as a range of different option in the types of ports.

The ideal pneumatic push button switch is streamlined and can easily be integrated into the system design. They are also low maintenance types of components that should last for long life cycles, even in the most demanding of applications.
