Fast Direct-Acting Poppet Control for Pneumatic Circuits
Direct-acting poppet air valves switch airflow without relying on a pilot pressure differential. The N2V series is available in 2-way and 3-way configurations, making it suitable for compact pneumatic control where direct electrical actuation is preferred.
The source description also identifies N3V1 1/8 NPT valves that can connect directly to corresponding units and share a common supply port, reducing the need for a separate manifold block. Standard valves are supplied with 24 VDC coils.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a direct-acting poppet valve?
It is a solenoid valve in which the electrical actuator directly opens or closes the internal poppet rather than relying on pilot pressure to move a spool.
What configurations are listed for the N2V series?
The source description lists 2-way and 3-way versions.
What is the N2V035 exhaust connection?
The source description lists a 10-32 UNF (M5) exhaust port in the top of the solenoid stem.
What port size is listed for the N3V1 series?
The source description identifies the N3V1 as a 1/8 NPT ported valve.
Can N3V1 valves be joined together?
Yes. The source description states that corresponding units can be joined directly and share a common supply port.
Is a separate manifold required for the described N3V1 arrangement?
No. The source description states that the series does not require a separate manifold block for that direct-joined arrangement.
What coil voltage is standard?
The source description states that 24 VDC is supplied as standard.
How do I select a poppet valve?
Confirm valve function, port size, pressure range, flow requirement, coil voltage and connection arrangement.
