1/8" Mechanical Actuation Valve, 5/2-Way + Short Cam Selector | Aignep

The AIGNEP 01VV Series 5/2-Way Mechanical Actuation Valve is a pneumatic mechanical control valve with a tappet actuator and spring return, designed for bidirectional control of double-acting pneumatic cylinders through physical contact or mechanical movement — without the need for electrical power. Unlike the 3/2 version (for single-acting cylinders), this 5/2 configuration manages two independent air outlets to control both the extension and retraction of the rod from a single valve. Manufactured in Italy by AIGNEP, it is ideal as a pneumatic limit switch in automation systems. It includes a short cam selector with 1 or 2 non-detent positions and a single mounting adapter.

Applications

• Pneumatic limit switch for double-acting cylinders in industrial automation
• Position detection and travel limits with bidirectional control
• Mechanical safety circuits without electrical dependence for double-acting
• Pneumatic sequencing systems with double-acting cylinders
• Presses, assembly, and bending machines with bidirectional movement
• Pneumatic automation in environments with electrical risk or ATEX
• Manufacturing, assembly, and packaging industry
• Any application requiring 5/2 control activated by physical contact
