50 Series Manually Operated Pneumatic Valve, 3-way 2-position, Manual Return, 1/8 NPT (Side) Ports, 16 Flow Rating

Description & Features

Our 50 Series Manually Operated Pneumatic Valve is engineered for low to moderate flow operations, making it ideal for industrial pneumatic control systems. With its robust hand lever actuator, this valve ensures precise control and reliability. The 3-way 2-position configuration and manual return functionality provide versatile operation options.

Designed with 1/8 NPT side ports and a flow rating of 16 SCFM, this valve supports efficient airflow management. Its extruded aluminum body paired with steel and aluminum spools ensures durability and longevity. The operating pressure range spans 20-150 PSI, and it functions effectively within temperatures of -10deg;F to 180deg;F.

To optimize performance and extend the lifespan of the valves, proper air line lubrication is recommended. The valve features O-ring seals that contribute to its efficient operation. The compact size allows for easy integration into various industrial setups.

Question by: Vince P on Oct 30, 2025, 3:44 PM

got a little hand lever valve setup already, is this 5030-10 the 3-way 2-position manual return style?

Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 1, 2025, 12:55 PM

Function-wise it matches that setup. It is a 3-way, 2-position manually operated valve with a hand lever actuator, and the spool action is manual return.

What's the deal with needing to lubricate this valve? Is it absolutely necessary?

Answer by: Customer Support on May 16, 2025, 7:33 PM

Air line lubrication isn't strictly required, but it's highly recommended to get the most life and best performance out of the valve because of the O-ring seals.

Question by: Terry T on May 30, 2025, 11:20 AM

does this valve need lubrication to hold up, or can it run dry off a standard compressor line?

Answer by: Customer Support on May 31, 2025, 1:24 PM

Running it dry will wear the seals down faster than you'd want. The O-ring seals in this valve are built to perform well, but they do their best work with standard air line lubrication in place. It's a pretty common setup on industrial pneumatic lines and doesn't take much to get right. Keep the lube consistent and you'll get a lot more life out of it.
