Aqua Environment 1094-3 1094 Series Open/Close Valve Air Operated 2-Way High Flow Low 1/4" MNPT 6000 PSI Maximum Pressure

The Model 1094 air operated valve is an open or shut valve for air or gas lines up to 6000 PSI. A one inch thread section and mounting nut are provided permitting a variety of ways to mount the valve. A one inch hole in a panel or mounting plate is required. The pressure operated cylinder at the top of the valve can be operated by any 125 PSI pressure source (air, gas, or liquid). Adding an inexpensive, low pressure solenoid valve converts the 1094 valve to a solenoid valve where low pressure air is available.

Installation

Use a suitable pipe thread sealant such as teflon tape on inlet and outlet threads. Do not over torque. Moderate torque applied with a 6 or 8 inch wrench is ample. Use ample teflon tape - 3 or 4 turns not 1 or 2 turns on pipe threads. The inlet is the male thread and outlet is the female thread at the side of the valve. The one inch thread at the bottom of the valve can be used to mount the valve through a one inch hole in a panel or mounting plate provided by the user. Actuating pressure for the 1094 valve can be any non-corrosive gas or liquid at any pressure between 120 and 5000 PSI. Pressure must be relieved for the valve to shut. If an electric solenoid is used, use the three way type to relieve control pressure to the valve. The valve is NOT shipped oxygen clean and should NOT be used for oxygen service as provided.

Maintenance and repair caution

As with any regulator or valve, particulates or moisture can plug or freeze the internal filter or valve seat. This can occur when up stream dryers are not changed or remain unused for long periods allowing corrosion materials to accumulate. In critical applications where it is important not to lose flow, a larger particulate filter should be used upstream.
