Product Overview
The FESTO MPYE-5-1/4-010 B (Part No. 151694) is a high-precision 5/2-way proportional directional control valve from Festo’s MPYE series, engineered for continuous, infinitely variable control of pneumatic actuators. Utilizing a proportional solenoid with a position-controlled spool, this valve delivers a flow rate proportional to the electrical input signal, enabling smooth, accurate positioning and velocity control of cylinders and rotary actuators. With its 1/4-inch port size and robust industrial construction, the MPYE-5-1/4-010 B is a direct-fit replacement for demanding motion control applications requiring fast response, high repeatability, and low hysteresis.
