and applications for these products or systems, the user, through its
own analysis and testing, is solely responsible for making the final
selection of the products and systems and assuring that all
performance, safety and warning requirements of the application
are met.
The products described herein, including without limitation, product

DESCRIPTION
These valves are 2-way normally closed (N.C.) valves with stainless
steel construction and are pneumatically actuated, which requires a
24VDC supply power. The positioner adjusts the valve stroke by
monitoring the stem position in relation to the input signal.
PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
2-way PA SERIES - NORMALLY CLOSED VALVES
The angle seat valve is kept closed by a spring which presses
against a piston and piston rod forcing the seating to seal tightly
against the valve seat. When pressure is applied to the actuator
pilot connection, the piston, piston rod, and seating seal are raised
thus opening the valve.
The valve closes tightly when pressure is removed from the pilot
connection.
The maximum permitted angle seat valve pressure, pilot valve
pressure, and temperature ranges are described on the valve data
label.
CAUTION: A minimum pilot operating pressure is required for
proper angle seat valve operation.
