OMNI 150 / 250 / 375

Today’s industrial fluid power operations demand faster, more reliable power and control air valve
systems. Alkon’s OMNI Series valves meet these needs …

u A Broad Range of Applications makes the OMNI Series best suited for the widest variety of applications –
automation and machine tool control, packaging machinery, robotics clamping, fixtures, cylinder controls, and
most other pneumatic devices.
u Reaction Time is fast and reliable, and will speed your production capability. For example, it takes less than 16 DESIGN FEATURES:
milliseconds to shift the valve spool.
• Patented Teflon loaded Viton “Thin Lip Seal”
u Superior Performance is guaranteed. OMNI Series valves are the fastest, lightest, most compact high-flowing • Minimum breakout friction
valve packages in the industry. On the basis of performance, OMNI valves deliver more production per dollar • Anodized extruded aluminum
