Mead MV-10 3-way Pilot Valve Straight Leaf 1/8 Inch Npt

Product Description

The MEAD MV-10 is a mechanically operated, 3-way pilot valve designed for pneumatic control applications in industrial and light commercial systems. It uses a straight leaf actuator to shift between two positions, directing or exhausting airflow through three ports. The valve accepts a 1/8 inch NPT inlet connection and is rated for a maximum working pressure of 120 psi with a Cv rating of 0.110. It is typically installed by maintenance technicians, automation specialists, or pneumatic controls contractors working on pneumatic actuation circuits, pilot signal lines, or directional control assemblies.

The MV-10 is suited for use in pneumatic control panels, pilot circuits, and actuator sequencing systems where a compact, mechanically actuated directional valve is required. Its 3-way, 2-position configuration makes it appropriate for single-acting cylinder control or pilot signal switching. The valve is compatible with standard 1/8 inch NPT pneumatic fittings and tubing systems commonly found in industrial automation and process control environments.

Key Features

• 3-way, 2-position directional control valve for pneumatic pilot circuits
• Straight leaf actuator provides positive mechanical actuation
• 1/8 inch NPT inlet for compatibility with standard pneumatic fittings
• Cv rating of 0.110 supports precise low-flow pilot signal control
• Rated to 120 psi maximum working pressure
• Compact and lightweight at 0.25 pounds

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for pneumatic control systems utilizing 1/8 inch NPT 3-way mechanically operated pilot valves in 2-position directional control applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pneumatic controls technician or industrial maintenance professional. Depressurize the pneumatic circuit fully before removing or installing any valve. Ensure all NPT thread connections are sealed with appropriate thread sealant rated for pneumatic service. Do not exceed the rated maximum working pressure of 120 psi or the maximum working temperature of 115 degrees F during operation.
