The Bullet Valve®
The Bullet Valve® (BV) represents yet another evolution in air valve technology from MAC. The Bullet Valve utilizes “lifting” solenoid technology.
The MAC bullet valve® offers a one piece poppet/armature of very few parts and a long life lifting solenoid which is isolated from contaminated air. The MAC “lifting” configuration is unique. In that the valve maintains a balanced design – a signature feature of a MAC valve – shifting forces are consistently high and response times are repeatable regardless of inlet pressure fluctuations. 2-way and 3-way configurations of the BV cartridge (9mm, 10mm, 14mm, and 21mm) are available.
| Series | Flow (CV-Max) | Port Size | Configuration |
| BV10 | 2-Way up to 0.08, 3-Way up to 0.09 | N/A | Cartridge - Manifold:Non Plug-In |
| BV14 | Up to 0.24 Cv | N/A | Cartridge |
| BV21 | Up to 0.60 Cv | N/A | Cartridge |
