Industry Solutions - Poppet Valves
ROSS poppet valves are the product of choice for the Aluminum and Steel Industries. With its proven reliability and performance plus consistent switching times it has proven itself over many decades in this challenging and unforgiving environment. Its internal construction has been carefully calculated to produce strong shifting and sealing forces in each direction which results in a design which ensures high speed, repeatability and high shifting forces over the life of the valve.
ROSS poppet valves have positive sealing with no sliding action to prevent damage and wear. They are also self-cleaning and dirt tolerant thanks to the smallest flow-through area across the poppet’s seal and seat which produces a high-enough velocity to blow out all dirt and foreign matter. Plus, the valve is self-compensating for wear by automatically changing stroke length due to height changes in the valve seal from burnishing. These valves are designed for repeatability, high-temperature service, high speed, and high-shift consistency over the life of the valve.

15 Series High Capacity Manual Lockout L-O-X® Valve
Following any FRL components, an energy isolation valve is usually the first valve in the line supplying compressed air to equipment. The energy isolation valve should provide a quick means of shutting off the supply of air and exhausting the downstream lines. The ROSS High-Capacity Manual Lockout L-O-X® valve is offered in either 1-1/2” & 2” ports. It’s yellow body and large red operating handle allow high visibility. All 15 Series Lockout Valves include an integrated sensing port for pressure verification where a visual pop-up indicator or pressure switch can be installed.
The controlling spool of the valve employs seals made of very low-friction material. These seals enable the L-O-X® spool to shift smoothly and easily even after being on standby for a long period of time. The large exhaust port enables rapid release of line pressure and is threaded for the installation of a silencer or a line for remote exhausting.
