3 & 4-WAY AIR VALVES THAT BRING
A NEW CONCEPT TO AIR VALVE DESIGN
The SPRITE II is truly a unique miniature solenoid air valve. It brings a technology to pneumatic
control that through the years has proven on-the-job reliability in the small electrical relay field.
This proven technology of solenoid actuation, and Alkon’s time tested lapped spool valve elements
combine as the basis of the exciting SPRITE II valve.
The SPRITE II valve has been specifically designed to bring a higher level of reliability to pneumatic
equipment, and at the same time a new level of versatility to system design.
• Sub-base mounted. Same valve assembly may be used alone on its own
sub-base or in compact multifunction manifolds
• Simple operation
• Operates with or without line lubrication
• Working pressures to 125 psi
• Continuous duty solenoids
• Integral locating pin for fool-proof valve alignment to sub-base or manifold
• Simple sub-base mounting from top or bottom
An Incredible Response Time & Cycle Rate
SPRITE Valve
Amazing as it seems, the SPRITE II valve can be continuously cycled as fast as alternating
current itself – thirty-six hundred times per minute. Of course, that’s far beyond practical
cylinder speed, but it does make a point about the valve’s capabilities.
Equally impressive is the response time – from closed to full open in just 6.0
milliseconds. That in itself is quite out of the ordinary.
