3-WAY NORMALLY CLOSED Valve
A complete line of valves with a great selection of options and exceptional proven performance. Using the heart of the highly successful model H22, Peter Paul Electronics Co., Inc., has a dual operator valve that allows the same media control as a three way normally closed valve but at much higher pressure ratings than previously available. To function as a 3-way normally closed valve, operators must be alternately energized and de-energized. Pressure applied to the "IN" port must always be equal to or greater than the pressure in "CYL" port. Air and other non-corrosive gasses, water and oil.
- Made for higher pressure ratings.
- Precision stainless steel, free floating plunger.
- Kel-F pin sealing element.
- Orifice guides the sealing pin for near perfect alignment.
- Simple construction...only two moving parts.
- Explosion proof construction.

* FKM seals not recommended for pressure above 500 psi.
Ordering Information:
Seal Material: Replace ∆ with desired code - Blank = Nitrile (Buna) S = Low Temp Buna. N = FKM* E = Neoprene A = EPDM
When ordering valves or repair packs add voltage and frequency to complete valve number. for examples: valve (EH23JJ19DCCML 120/60) repair pack (2KEH23JJ AC)

EXPLOSION PROOF/HIGH PRESSURE

PeterPaul has created this page for you so you can calculate the flow or Cv (flow coefficient) to make the relationship visible between the pressure drop (the difference in pressure between two points of a liquid/gas carrying network) and the flow rate.
The use of this flow coefficient (Cv) calculator offers a standard calculation to compare valve capacities and sizing for a wide range of applications. The type and sizing of a valve or regulator can have a large impact on the performance of the assembly for transferring gas or liquids in the system.
