LAPPED SPOOL VALVES

The heart of the Series P valve is the packless body
and spool assembly constructed of aluminum with
a ceramic hard aluminum oxide finish. This unique
cartridge and spool assembly is completely isolated
from external forces; is pressure balanced, allowing any
port to be pressurized or subjected to back pressure with no effect on shifting force, and has been designed
to meet the most stringent requirements that today’s customers demand. All Series P valves are in-line, and
all can be manifolded. This series is manufactured to the highest quality standards in the industry today
and all carry a three year warranty on all parts of the valve, including the coil. No lubrication; extremely fast
shifting coupled with very low minimum pilot pressure, a variety of options and all at a low cost. Series P Valves

SERIES A & SPRITE VALVES VALVE FEATURES:
• Packless design

Alkon Series A and SPRITE II valves have been designed • Fast Response
to comply with the ever more stringent requirements • Operate with or
for increased production rates through higher speeds without lubrication
and component reliability. The heart of these valves is
a packless spool body and spool assembly constructed • Can be sub-base, manifold
of aluminum with a ceramic hard aluminum oxide or cylinder mounted
finish. Ground and matched to precision tolerances, its
operation is virtually frictionless.

The unique body and spool assembly has been completely isolated from external forces by use of a
patented 3-point suspension. This assembly, coupled with a complete variety of actuators and mounting
alternatives, provides the highest level of performance and versatility found in the air valve industry.
