Mead CSV-107LS2 Two Hand Control Air Valve 3 Port

Product Description

The MEAD CSV-107LS2 is a two-hand control logic unit air valve designed for pneumatic safety circuits that require simultaneous, two-handed operator actuation before a machine cycle can initiate. This 3-port, 4-position valve operates on compressed air and is built around an NPTF threaded connection. It carries a Cv rating of 0.110 and is rated for working pressures between 70 and 100 psi. Typical installers are industrial maintenance technicians and pneumatic system integrators working on press, stamping, or other point-of-operation machinery that requires OSHA-compliant two-hand actuation control.

This valve fits applications where simultaneous dual-palm or dual-button actuation is required to protect operators at hazardous machine points of operation. It is suited for use in pneumatic control panels on industrial presses, forming equipment, and similar machinery where one-handed or accidental single-input actuation must be prevented. The NPTF thread type ensures a pressure-tight, dry-seal connection without the need for sealant on properly gauged fittings. Operating temperature range spans -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F, making it usable across most indoor industrial environments.

Key Features

• Two-hand control actuator type requires simultaneous dual inputs to permit machine cycle initiation
• 3-port, 4-position valve design provides the logic function needed for compliant two-hand safety circuits
• NPTF dry-seal thread ensures leak-resistant connections in compressed air systems
• Working pressure range of 70 to 100 psi suits standard shop-air pneumatic control circuits
• Wide operating temperature range of -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F supports demanding industrial environments
• Cv rating of 0.110 sized for control-circuit airflow, not high-volume actuation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style pneumatic safety valve for industrial two-hand control circuits using NPTF-ported pneumatic control panels and manifolds.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pneumatic systems technician or industrial maintenance professional familiar with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.217 two-hand control requirements. Depressurize and lock out the pneumatic supply before removing or installing any valve in the circuit. Verify NPTF port sizing and thread engagement on all mating fittings before applying system pressure. Do not exceed the 100 psi maximum working pressure rating.
