Shuttle Valves for Control Systems
The shuttle valve utilizes a stainless steel ball sealing against an o-ring. Unpredictable breakaway friction usually associated with sliding seals is eliminated through the use of this contact seal principle. The ball offers frictionless response to pressure from either inlet and closes the opposite inlet with a bubble-tight seal.
