Norgren T72T-3GA-P1N Excelon 3/2 Valve - G3/8 Port
Part Number: T72T-3GA-P1N
Quick Summary
Norgren T72T-3GA-P1N Excelon 3/2 valve is a compact pneumatic controller engineered for inline and modular automation in manufacturing environments. Engineers often grapple with stiction, slow response, and integration friction when adding valves to multi-module lines, leading to downtime. This Excelon design aligns with industry expectations for safety and reliability, offering a lockable closed-position option, robust zinc body and nitrile elastomer seals, and easy actuation. By combining inline installability with modular compatibility, it reduces installation time and total cost of ownership while improving line uptime and predictability.

FAQs
The T72T-3GA-P1N supports flexible deployment, functioning in inline configurations or as part of a modular Excelon valve network. Its G3/8 port and M5 exhaust port simplify piping and exhaust routing, enabling quick commissioning. For best results, pair it with compatible Excelon modules to minimize space and maximize cycle consistency in automated cells.
Key specs include a G3/8 port size, maximum inlet pressure of 17 bar, and a flow rating of 66 dm3/s (140 scfm). The valve operates as a 3/2 configuration with slide lever actuation, designed for compressed air applications and fast, repeatable actuation in intermediate load conditions.
Yes. The T72T-3GA-P1N uses a slide lever manual actuation and features a lockable closed-position option. This capability is advantageous during setup, maintenance, or safety testing, preventing unintended movements and improving operator confidence during service windows and fault investigations.
Best suited for inline control of pneumatic cylinders in packaging, pick-and-place, and process control lines. The modular Excelon design supports scalable valve banks, reducing integration time, while the robust zinc body and nitrile elastomer seals deliver durable performance in typical factory environments.
Plan regular inspection of seals and moving parts, verify exhaust routing for leaks, and ensure piping retains proper torque on G3/8 connections. Compatibility is strongest when used within the Excelon modular ecosystem; pairing with compatible modules simplifies diagnostics and reduces total life-cycle costs.
