LAPPED SPOOL VALVES


The heart of the Series P valve is the packless body
and spool assembly constructed of aluminum with
a ceramic hard aluminum oxide finish. This unique
cartridge and spool assembly is completely isolated
from external forces; is pressure balanced, allowing any
port to be pressurized or subjected to back pressure with no effect on shifting force, and has been designed
to meet the most stringent requirements that today’s customers demand. All Series P valves are in-line, and
all can be manifolded. This series is manufactured to the highest quality standards in the industry today
and all carry a three year warranty on all parts of the valve, including the coil. No lubrication; extremely fast

VALVE ACCESSORIES
The dual exhaust and balanced design of the Alkon valve allows for
the use of inexpensive exhaust metering valves. When screwed
into the exhaust ports, they independently control the actuator
speed in either or both directions.
Metering valves have aluminum bodies and steel adjusting screws.
Mufflers are used to silence the noise caused by exhausting air.
Both standard mufflers and speed control mufflers are made of
brass and sintered bronze.

SERIES A VALVES Solenoid Controlled /


Pilot Operated
Reliable rapid response is inherent to the
Series A valve’s design concept. The low
friction operation, short spool travel and
low mass spool all represent construction
features that make fast response possible.
Equally important, this fast response is
repeatable. It does not fluctuate when
degree of lubrication, operating pressure or

AIR PILOT
In applications where electrical controls are not suitable, or
where they are hazardous, air pilot operated valves can be
used. These valves can also be applied for special purpose
circuitry such as sequencing or timing operations.
Since the low friction characteristics of the body and spool
assembly requires only .50 psig to shift, vacuum can be
considered as a signal source. Air pilot operated valves,
do however require external valves to supply the required

3 & 4-WAY AIR VALVES THAT BRING


A NEW CONCEPT TO AIR VALVE DESIGN
The SPRITE II is truly a unique miniature solenoid air valve. It brings a technology to pneumatic
control that through the years has proven on-the-job reliability in the small electrical relay field.
This proven technology of solenoid actuation, and Alkon’s time tested lapped spool valve elements
combine as the basis of the exciting SPRITE II valve.
The SPRITE II valve has been specifically designed to bring a higher level of reliability to pneumatic
equipment, and at the same time a new level of versatility to system design.
• Sub-base mounted. Same valve assembly may be used alone on its own
sub-base or in compact multifunction manifolds
• Simple operation
• Operates with or without line lubrication
• Working pressures to 125 psi
• Continuous duty solenoids
• Integral locating pin for fool-proof valve alignment to sub-base or manifold
• Simple sub-base mounting from top or bottom

An Incredible Response Time & Cycle Rate SPRITE Valve


Amazing as it seems, the SPRITE II valve can be continuously cycled as fast as alternating
current itself – thirty-six hundred times per minute. Of course, that’s far beyond practical
cylinder speed, but it does make a point about the valve’s capabilities.
Equally impressive is the response time – from closed to full open in just 6.0
milliseconds. That in itself is quite out of the ordinary.

IT HAS CONSTRUCTION EXTRAS, TOO


SPRITE II is simply an outstanding valve package designed and constructed with a lot of
attention to detail, like the spool which is precision machined to form extremely sharp land
edges. This in turn gives the valve self-cleaning properties and reduces the stroke required
for full flow.
You’ll notice, too, that the spool and body are designed as a floating sub-assembly within the
valve’s protective housing to keep exterior forces from disturbing its precision operation.
The solenoid cover itself meets the latest industry standards – remove it and the solenoid
comes with it, rendering the valve inoperative. Captive assembly bolts eliminate the
possibility of lost parts in disassembly.

Single Sub-base Mounting


Between the valve and the sub-base is a
locating pin which assures accurate alignment
of valve and sub-base. Valves are secured with
two mounting screws.
The mounting of this valve may be achieved by
one of two methods:
1. Sub-base may be bulkhead mounted using
1/4-20 threaded mounting holes on the
bottom of the sub-base.
2. The same holes are counter-bored from the
top of the sub-base to accept #8 screws for
surface mounting.
Valves and sub-bases may be ordered
separately; however, factory assembly is
available at a nominal charge.

AIR PILOT OPERATED
The OMNI Series 3-Way and 4-Way valves can be air pilot operated with three types of assemblies:
1. DOUBLE AIR PILOT (NO VALVE SPOOL SPRING). The valve spool is shifted by a momentary air pilot signal to
either of the “A” or “B” Pilots. 3-Way/Air Pilot
2. SINGLE AIR PILOT, SPRING RETURN. The valve spool is maintained in the normal rest position in the “B” end. A
maintained air pressure signal at the “A” end greater than the spring force will shift the valve spool.
3. DOUBLE AIR PILOT, SPRING OFFSET. The valve spool is maintained in the normal rest position in the “B” end. A
maintained air pressure signal at the “A” end greater than the spring force will shift the valve spool, providing
no air pressure signal is on the “B” end. By controlling the pressure differential between “A” and “B” a variety of
applications are available.

STACKING & COMMON WIREWAY ARRANGEMENTS
The OMNI 375 Series valves can be assembled into a variety of stacking arrangements which
greatly reduce piping requirements and increases mounting options.
These stacks offer high flow performance in compact, space-saving packages which include:
Double Solenoid Spring Centered
• 2 and 3 position
• Side or bottom porting - 1/4 or 3/8 NPTF
• 4-Way, 5 ported stacks with common or dual input
• Common or individual dual exhausts
• Horizontal or vertical mounting
• Grommet, conduit, or DIN connector for electrical operators
• NEMA 4 common wireway closure
• Electronic timer

Ordering Information: Example for ordering two,


375 Series stacks with common
All OMNI 375 Series valve stacks and common wireway stacks are assembled with tie rods at the factory at wireway:
no additional charge. The ordering procedure is very simple. First, list the quantity and model of each type (2) 375 Series common wireway stack
of valve required. Second, determine the number of spacers required between each valve. When air pilot consisting of:
or DIN operated valves are used, spacers are not required. When manually operated valves are used, allow (4) 375-02-009-68C 120/60 with lights
one spacer between each valve, but not between a valve and end plate. When solenoid operated valves (1) 375-1230 side ported 1/4 NPTF
are used (with or without manual override) allow one spacer between each valve, but not between a valve end plate assembly
and end plate. For operators 42, 66, or 74 consult factory. Third, specify the type of end plate assembly (1) 37-1122 NEMA 4 enclosure
required (side or bottom ported, 1/4 or 3/8 NPTF, horizontal or vertical). Fourth, for common wireway Example for ordering two,
stacks, specify model enclosure. In most cases where a 3-Way valve function is required in a stack, a pipe 375 Series stacks:
plug is used to block one of the cylinder ports. (2) 375 Series stack consisting of:

Lubrication
All Alkon valves are pre-lubricated with PTFE-based grease and will operate dry (with no additional
lubrication). However, a lubricated system will greatly extend the service life of any valve. The following
oils are popular, easily obtained fluids that are recommended for use with Alkon valves: Gulf Harmony
47, Moble DTE Medium, Shell Tellus 29, Texaco Rondo B., Schivis 47 and Sunnis 921. Many other fluids are
acceptable lubricants providing they do not contain detergents that will attack Buna N or Viton seals.

AIR PILOT OPERATED VALVES


Air Pilot operated valves are recommended where it is desirable to substitute pilot air circuitry to replace
solenoid operated valves. Typical applications would be where electrically operated valving would present
a fire or explosion hazard. With controlled pilot signals air pilot systems have comparable response to
electrically operated valves and in many cases system response is enhanced by their use.

AIR PILOT OPERATED VALVES


Air pilot operated valves are recommended for applications where the substitution
of pilot air circuitry for solenoid operated valves is more suitable.
Controlled pilot signals using pilot air systems show comparable response to
electrically operated valves, and in many cases, response is enhanced by their use.
3-way valves may be used normally open, normally closed, or as a selector or
directional valve without modification. They are operated with an air pilot signal.

ASK594 Valve
The ASK594 Valve was first developed in 1963 for the glass making machine industry.
It is basically a 4-Way, air pilot, spring return valve with a visual indicator. The base may
be mounted directly on top of a cylinder with porting conforming to the “SK” base
interface. The base, exhaust restrictors, and isolation valve are optional. The ASK is the
newest version of the same valve.

MODEL # DESCRIPTION
ASK-594V Valve on base, no indicator with exhaust restrictors
ASK-5645V Valve on base, with indicator with exhaust restrictors
ASK-5946V Valve on base, with indicator without exhaust restrictors
Note: Specify less base, if base is not needed.

3072-C Isolation Valve


This functional unit easily adapts to the ASK594 valve to provide a quick manual system
shutdown. Although the ASK594 normally operates as a 4-Way air piloted valve, by
inserting the 3072-C between the air pilot end cap and the valve body, the air pilot
signal is blocked to the main valve and the ASK spool returns to a de-energized position.

SP-3207 Dual Isolation Valve


Just like the 3072-C, this valve adapts easily to the ASK594 valve to provide a quick
manual system shutdown while, at the same time, blocking the signal to another remote
valve in the system. This provides a simultaneous isolation of the dual pilots.
