It uses a plunger actuator to shift a 3-port, 2-position spool, with a spring return to restore the valve to its default position when the actuator is released. The valve has a Cv rating of 0.340 and accepts a 1\/8 inch NPT inlet connection. It is rated for a maximum working pressure of 10 bar and operates across a temperature range of 32 degrees F to 158 degrees F. Pneumatic system technicians and industrial maintenance professionals install this valve in compressed air circuits requiring reliable mechanical actuation and repeatable flow control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis valve fits into compact pneumatic control assemblies where mechanical actuation is preferred over electrical solenoid operation. Typical applications include machine guarding, actuator sequencing, and position-sensing circuits in manufacturing and automated equipment environments. The 1\/8 inch NPT inlet makes it compatible with standard small-bore pneumatic plumbing commonly found in light industrial and OEM equipment builds. Its black housing and packed spool design suit environments where consistent sealing and low-maintenance operation are priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePacked spool design provides reliable sealing across the operating pressure range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlunger actuator enables direct mechanical actuation from cams, levers, or contact surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring return automatically restores valve to default position when actuator force is removed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch NPT inlet fits standard small-bore pneumatic plumbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCv rating of 0.340 suited for low-flow pneumatic control circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 10 bar maximum working pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of 32 degrees F to 158 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation directional control valve for compact pneumatic circuits using 1\/8 inch NPT connections and spring-return mechanical actuation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified pneumatic systems technician. Depressurize and lock out the pneumatic supply before removing any existing valve or making connections. Use thread sealant rated for compressed air service on all NPT connections and torque fittings according to the fitting manufacturer's specifications. Verify that system pressure does not exceed the 10 bar maximum rating before returning the circuit to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Design\u003c\/strong\u003e: Packed Spool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActuator Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plunger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReturn Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Positions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Ports\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCv Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.340\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 32 degrees F (0 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 158 degrees F (70 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.365 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: NORGREN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 03040022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NORGREN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51717236719922,"sku":"03040022","price":163.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/86609e68caf26cbfc819e3ed3a11c9ff.jpg?v=1788537235","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/norgren-03040022-mechanically-operated-valve-1-8-inch-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
