Feature → Business Impact → Application: The Pneufit 10 design uses a push-in fitting approach to reduce assembly time and simplify tube insertion, delivering a tangible reduction in commissioning time and a smaller panel footprint for automated lines in manufacturing and packaging. This translates to faster line changes and lower labor costs on site. Feature → Positive tube anchorage → Improved leak prevention and system integrity, minimizing backflow risks in critical pneumatic circuits and ensuring consistent actuation in robotics and material handling. Feature → Nickel-plated brass body → Enhanced corrosion resistance and durability in harsh industrial environments, extending service life for air preparation and control modules in food & beverage, automotive, and general automation applications. Feature → Pilot-operated check valve functionality → Clear backflow protection and flow control, enabling more predictable response in multi-valve networks and reducing the need for downstream troubleshooting during commissioning. Feature → Compact dimensions (Height 19 mm, Length 36 mm, Width 48.9 mm) → Space-saving installation even in tight control panels, facilitating modular expansion for scalable automation projects. Feature → Operating range (-20 to 80 °C, 1 to 10 bar; 15 to 145 psi) → Broad compatibility with standard compressed air systems, ensuring stable performance across varying plant temperatures and pressure conditions, which translates to lower spare-part inventory needs and faster maintenance planning. Feature → Nickel-plated brass, G1/4 and G1/8 port sizes, G1/4 thread → Broad compatibility with common pneumatic components and fittings, simplifying stock management and reducing mis-match risk during retrofits or new builds. Feature → 102GA range, Pneufit 10 series → Consistent interchangeability with existing IMI Norgren products, enabling smoother BOM updates and easier cross-compatibility across machines and lines. These benefits collectively support higher line uptime, lower total cost of ownership, and improved operator confidence in pneumatic system reliability.

FAQs
Yes, the 102GA2828 uses a standard Push-in Pneufit 10 connection compatible with common pneumatic tubes. For best results, ensure tube cut is square, deburred, and fully inserted to achieve positive anchorage. Use compatible G1/4 fittings for the specified ports and verify seating with a gentle tug after installation to confirm leak-tight performance.
The valve operates from 1 to 10 bar (15 to 145 psi) and withstands temperatures from -20 to 80 °C (-4 to 176 °F). These ranges support most industrial pneumatic environments, translating to predictable actuation and reduced risk of performance drift under normal machine operating conditions. For extreme environments, plan maintenance schedules around the stated limits to maintain consistent performance.
The 102GA2828 excels in compact, space-constrained panels and automated lines requiring reliable backflow protection. It benefits packaging, automation, robotics, and material handling where rapid assembly, leak prevention, and small form factor matter. Its positive tube anchorage and quick-connect capability reduce downtime during line changes and retrofit projects.
The downloadable brochure references ISO 13849-1 functional safety guidance, indicating a risk-reduction framework in the product’s documentation.
