Mead Fluid Dynamics, a Bimba Company, announced today, the arrival of the newest addition to the patented Isonic® valve line, the V2 series. The new V2 is a 2-and 3-way solenoid-operated, direct-acting pneumatic valve. With flow in the range of 0.01 to 0.05 Cv, the V2 is available with multiple voltage and electrical connection options in both normally-closed and normally-open styles.

At the heart of the V2 is the award-winning Isonic® design, which enables flow channels to be molded directly into polymer body sections. This eliminates the abrupt air path changes associated with cross-drilled machining in traditional valves. The resultant ribbon-like flow paths create near laminar flow with little energy/pressure drop through the valve. Built-in, push-to-connect collets allow for simple tube and manifold connections in seconds.
