Airtac 4HV230-08L Pneumatic Directional Valve – 5/3 Manual Control Valve, 1/4 Inch

✅ Airtac 4HV230-08L is a pneumatic directional control valve from the 4HV series, designed to control compressed-air direction and pneumatic actuator movement in industrial systems. Its 5-port, 3-position (5/3) configuration is suitable for applications requiring forward, reverse and intermediate control of pneumatic actuators.

✅ The 4HV230-08L uses a manual lever mechanism, allowing the operator to directly change the valve position. By moving the lever to the required position, compressed air is directed through the appropriate working ports to control both directions of a double-acting pneumatic cylinder.

✅ The valve features 1/4-inch pneumatic ports, making it suitable for many industrial pneumatic systems using standard tubing and fittings. Its compact construction allows convenient installation on machines, pneumatic control panels and compact control assemblies.

✅ The 5/3 configuration provides three control positions, giving greater operating flexibility than a standard 5/2 valve. Depending on the center configuration, the valve can be used to hold, exhaust or otherwise control the actuator when an intermediate stop is required.

✅ The complete designation 4HV230-08L should be retained when selecting a replacement valve because the final code identifies the specific product configuration. Before replacement, the valve model, center function, port size and mounting arrangement should be checked carefully.

✅ Airtac 4HV230-08L can be combined with pneumatic cylinders, flow-control valves, air filters, regulators and other pneumatic components to create a complete control circuit. It is particularly suitable for applications requiring direct manual operation without an electrical solenoid coil.
