  • Why use distributed valve controllers?

    A distributed valve controller allows for the opening and closing of valves automatically. Developed specifically for the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries, valves such as the Type 8681 – Control Head for Hygienic Process Valves, stops the wasteful venting of control air associated with pneumatic tubing between the process valve and its control solenoid valve.
