VSO Miniature Proportional Valve

by | Jun 23, 2012

Thermally compensated 2-way normally closed (NC) proportional valve designed to maintain accurate and repeatable flow over a wide range of media. Ideal for medical and analytical applications that require precision control and flow up to 56 slpm.

Product Information

The VSO® miniature proportional valve provides enhanced flow control for applications where precise control flow control is required up to 56 slpm. The VSO® miniature proportional valve provides precise flow control of gas in proportion to input current. The valve can be controlled with either DC current or pulse width modulation along with closed loop feedback to deliver optimal system performance. Together with its ability to provide precise control over a wide range of media, the VSO® miniature proportional valve is ideally suited for manufacturers of medical and analytical equipment.
