Hand lever valves - 84-4H series

The 84-4H series hand lever valves from AIRTEC Pneumatic offer you a reliable and powerful solution for your pneumatic applications. These valves are available in different variants, including 5/2-way and 5/3-way valves, which are ideal for a wide range of control and drive functions. With connection sizes from G1/8 to G1/2, they adapt flexibly to different system requirements.

The 84-4H series is available in two versions: the 84-4HF series and the 84-4HR series, each of which is designed for different operating conditions. The 84-4HF series has connection sizes from G1/8 to G1/4 and a nominal diameter of 4.5 mm to 6 mm, while the 84-4HR series has connection sizes from G1/8 to G1/2 and a nominal diameter of 4.5 mm to 6.5 mm. Both series operate in a temperature range from 0°C to +60°C and offer high performance even under extreme conditions.

The hand lever valves can be actuated in two ways: by touch on the 84-4HF series and by latching on the 84-4HR series. This enables precise control of your pneumatic systems, depending on your requirements.

Rely on the hand lever valves in the 84-4H series for your most demanding pneumatic applications and benefit from AIRTEC's outstanding quality and expertise.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions about mechanical valves, applications and customised solutions from AIRTEC.

When is a mechanically operated valve the right choice?

Whenever no control signal is available: without a power supply, in set-up and manual operation, for shutting off and exhausting, and for end-position sensing without electronic sensors. If the machine is electrically controlled anyway, a solenoid valve is the better choice.

What is the difference between mechanically and manually operated valves?

Mechanically operated means that a machine part switches the valve, for example via a plunger or roller lever. Manually operated means that an operator switches it via a hand lever, push button or foot pedal. This distinction is not defined by any standard.

 

Are mechanically operated 3/2-way valves available as NO versions?

AIRTEC does not offer dedicated NO versions. However, many series allow flow in both directions and can be operated as NO by connecting the compressed air supply to port 3 instead of port 1.

Can mechanically operated valves be used in hazardous areas?

Yes. Selected series are available as ATEX versions, and a large proportion are approved for use in hazardous areas, as they have no electrical ignition source of their own; mechanical ignition sources are assessed depending on the installation conditions. A prerequisite is a ported exhaust with a threaded connection so that the exhaust air can be routed out of the zone. Small plunger and push-button valves with an open exhaust hole do not meet this requirement.

What is the service life of mechanically operated valves?

The service life corresponds to that of the other AIRTEC series, as the valve internals are largely identical. In practice, the number of switching cycles is rarely the limiting factor here. Spare parts are available for wearing parts such as the lever.

What compressed air quality is required?

Compressed air to ISO 8573-1:2010, Class 7:2:4 (filtered, oil-free, dried and free from aggressive constituents). However, the pressure dew point must be at least 10 °C below the lowest expected ambient temperature. The same requirements apply as for the pneumatically and electrically operated series.
