Ross Controls W1613B2020 Pneumatic Directional Valve

Ross Controls 1613B2020W is a compact inline solenoid poppet valve in the 16 Series, delivering three-port, two-position directional control for pneumatic circuits. This 3/2 normally closed (NC) valve uses 1/4" NPT inline ports and inline mounting, making it ideal for space-constrained installations. The W suffix denotes a 24 VDC coil drive, enabling direct interfacing with standard PLC outputs and control panels. Energizing the coil shifts the internal poppet to connect the pressure inlet to the output while exhaust is vented, allowing precise actuation of small cylinders or pilot lines. The compact inline footprint and robust poppet design provide tight shut-off and rapid response in compact valve islands, automation fixtures, or small modules within manufacturing lines. Typical applications include pick-and-place modules, compact clamping stations, tooling fixtures, and other localized pneumatic controls where space is at a premium and reliable, quick actuation is required.
