Highly Engineered Pneumatic and Fluid Valves
For over 70 years MAC® Valves has been a global manufacturing leader in the pneumatic and fluid valve industries. MAC Valves has earned a reputation as an innovator in solenoid air valve technology as is evidenced by their numerous global patents. MAC’s focus is on offering customers the best performing products available on the market, including speed, reliability, repeatability, ease of maintenance and low wattage.
Fast, Repeatable and Reliable Pulses for Dust Collection
MAC’s patented bonded spool technology is transforming the dust collection industry. The MAC Pulse Valve was developed to replace current diaphragm style technology and create a more robust, reliable and environmentally conscience valve solution. MAC Pulse Valves are designed for lowest cost of ownership, long life, and configurable to most any existing baghouse.
MAC Pulse Valves can be ordered in one of two pilot configurations: The Integral Solenoid pilot combines fast, repeatable pulses with the addition of a Manual Operator, while MAC’s Remote Bleed version improves performance and reliability in hazardous locations. The main body of the MAC Pulse Valve utilizes bonded spool technology for superior reliability beyond existing diaphragm technology. A checked accumulator and a main spool with memory spring are used to ensure a shift back to the home position, for times when air supply may not be adequate. A line of adapter plates has also been released to replace existing diaphragm pulse valves with a direct drop-in, without disturbing existing plumbing.
The Problem with Diaphragm Valves
The drawbacks of outdated diaphragm style technology include high energy consumption, routine maintenance and requires higher pulsing frequency for cleaning.

Benefits of a MAC Pulse Valve:
Energy savings for replacing diaphragm valves with a spool valve can be 20 – 70%
ROIA fast return on investment is due to significant energy savings, extended bag life, greatly reduced replacement costs, reduction in downtime and labor savings
BULLET VALVES
Evolution in Air Valve TechnologyBuilt with very few parts, MAC Bullet Valves are ideal for applications where high flow and repeatability in a small package size are crucial. Simple cartridge design for easy adaptability.
LIQUID VALVES
Innovation in Valves and RepeatabilityMAC Liquid Valves perform with both gas and liquids utilizing D-Flex™ technology to provide a tight seal. Solve your microdosing, dispensing, spraying and filling applications.
3-WAY VALVES
Solenoid Operated 3-Way ValvesValve with 3 ports, inlet, outlet (cylinder) and exhaust. They are generally used to operate spring return cylinders or as pilots for larger diaphragm or piston valves.
4-WAY VALVES
Solenoid Operated 4-Way Valves
Valve with 4 ports; inlet, a common exhaust and two cylinder ports, one normally open the other normally closed their most common application is to operate double acting cylinders.
