Pneumatic Valves
Pneumatic Valves
Mercury designs and manufactures a wide range of pneumatic valves such as direct acting Solenoid valves, Spool and poppet type solenoid valves, Pneumatically and Mechanically actuated Valves, Flow and pressure control valves as well as special for OEM’s and High pressure valves for the PET blow moulding industry.
Pneumatic valves are available in ranges from 1/8” BSP to 1” BSP port sizes and in 3/2, 5/2 and 5/3 configurations. Mercury’s special design ‘T’ ring spool valves introduced in 1980 have stood the test of time and are still the favourite choice of their OEM customers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
For standard Mercury Pneumatic valves (such as the Series ‘S’, ‘NP’, and ‘MS’ spool and direct-acting solenoid valves), the operating pressure rating typically ranges from 2.5 bar to 10 bar (approximately 36 to 145 psi).
However, the rating can vary significantly depending on the specific series and intended application:
- Standard / Pilot-Operated Valves:5 bar – 10 bar
- Direct acting Solenoid Valves: 0 bar – 10 bar
- High-Pressure / PET Blow Molding Valves: 5 bar – 30 bar
The signature feature of Mercury spool valves is their proprietary “T” ring seal design, introduced way back in 1980. Unlike standard O-rings that can twist or wear out quickly under high friction, the “T” ring design reduces friction, prevents seal twisting, ensures a longer service life, and allows the valves to perform reliably even with lower-quality or lightly lubricated compressed air.
Yes, this is one of their major OEM specialties. They manufacture High-Pressure Valves and High-Flow Dual Pressure Valves engineered specifically to withstand the rapid cycling and high pressures (up to 40 bar) required in PET stretch blow molding machines. They also supply companion 40-bar high-pressure silencers
Models like the ES2 (1/4″) and ES4 (1/2″) are designed to reduce compressed air consumption in pneumatic cylinders.
How it works: A cylinder usually requires high force to push forward, but very little force to retract. By connecting a Mercury energy-saving valve to the return port, it lowers the return air pressure, saving between 15% to 30% of the system’s total air consumption.
Yes. Their Series S pneumatically actuated (pilot-operated) valves utilize an air signal rather than an electrical signal to shift the spool. This makes them ideal for remote operations, wet environments, or explosive zones where electrical sparks pose a safety hazard.
