Valves and solenoid valves are essential components in compressed air systems and the management of various fluids. Available in various configurations, such as electrically, pneumatically and manually operated, these devices offer a versatile and reliable solution for a wide range of industrial applications. Among the most sought-after products are direct and indirectly operated solenoid pilots, threaded body or base mounted valves and solenoid valves, NAMUR valves and solenoid valves, and many other specialized variants. Universalflex also offers ATEX versions for potentially explosive environments, ensuring safety and compliance with current regulations.
Valves and solenoid valves are distinguished by their ability to control and regulate the flow of compressed air and fluids precisely and efficiently. There are different types of valves, each designed to meet specific industrial needs. Pneumatically controlled valves, for example, are ideal for applications where remote control is required, while electrically controlled solenoid valves are perfect for applications that require fast and reliable control.
NAMUR valves, recognized for their ease of installation and maintenance, are particularly useful in systems where frequent component interchangeability is required. For applications requiring more sophisticated control, such as pneumatic logic systems, proportional flow and pressure regulators offer a superior level of control and regulation, ensuring optimum performance even under variable conditions.
In the wide range of products offered by Universalflex, valves and solenoid valves stand out for their advanced technology and reliability. Pressure and vacuum switches, for example, are indispensable tools for monitoring and regulating pressure in pneumatic systems, preventing potential damage caused by overpressure or vacuum. In addition, proportional flow and pressure regulators are essential for ensuring a constant and controlled flow, essential in processes that require a high degree of precision.
For applications in potentially hazardous environments, ATEX versions of valves and solenoid valves ensure safety and protection, complying with European regulations for use in explosive atmospheres. This option is particularly advantageous in sectors such as the chemical and petrochemical industries, where safety is a top priority.
Universalflex valves and solenoid valves not only meet the highest quality standards, but are also designed to offer customized solutions for every industrial need. With a wide range of products available, from direct and indirect operated models to NAMUR solutions, each customer can find the valve or solenoid valve that best suits their operational needs. The company is committed to providing products that are both reliable and efficient, while ensuring easy installation and minimal maintenance.
If you are looking for reliable and advanced solutions for the management of compressed air and industrial fluids, explore the complete range of valves and solenoid valves from Universalflex.
