Air Push Button Valve

The air push button valve is a compact and highly efficient solution for manual pneumatic control systems. Designed for durability and ease of use, this type of pneumatic push button valve is ideal for industrial environments where simple and reliable air actuation is essential.

FOKCA’s air push button valve series is engineered for quick response and long service life.

Whether used in control panels, workstations, or emergency systems, our push button air valves provide tactile feedback and precise airflow management.

These pneumatic push button valves are available in various configurations including momentary and latching types, suitable for different operating conditions and installation requirements.

Key Benefits

◆ No electricity required — mechanical actuation for safe, reliable control

◆ Compact design, ideal for limited-space installations

◆ High cycle life — over 1 million operations

◆ Available in M5, 1/8", and 1/4" port sizes

◆ Panel or surface mounting options

Each air push button valve from FOKCA is rigorously tested to ensure consistent performance in automated systems.

Our push button air valves integrate seamlessly with existing pneumatic circuits, making them a preferred choice in a wide range of industries.

Typical Applications

◆ Operator-initiated pneumatic functions

◆ Test equipment activation

◆ Packaging and labeling machinery

◆ Emergency stop air cut-off

◆ Industrial workstation controls

In all these environments, a reliable pneumatic push button valve can improve workflow and safety.

What is the function of the spring in the push button valve?

Automatic Return / Reset:

◆ The primary role of the spring is to return the button to its original (rest) position after it has been pressed and released.

◆ This ensures the valve closes (or switches back) automatically when the operator removes their hand.

Maintains Default State:

◆ The spring keeps the valve in its default state (normally open or normally closed) until external force (pushing the button) is applied.

◆ It ensures reliable and repeatable operation every time the valve is used.

Enhances Safety and Control:

◆ In applications like emergency stop or momentary air supply, the spring ensures that air stops flowing as soon as the operator stops pressing the button.

◆ This improves both safety and manual control precision.

Supports Momentary Actuation Design:

◆ Most momentary push button air valves rely on the spring for temporary switching.

Without the spring, the button would stay in the actuated position, which could be undesirable in many control systems.
