Dakota Valves

Choose a sub category:

Dakota’s 2-way Needle Valves, designed and constructed of different materials, accommodate a wide range of laboratory, process control, and OEM applications. These valves are excellent choices for precision low flow metering of gases and liquids. The product line consists of manually-operated and power-operated units.

Manually- operated needle valves are available in brass, stainless steel or PTFE for fluid- contacting versions in either straight line (T) or 90 degree (L) patterns.

Based on the fluid being regulated, select:

Brass for mild media and marine applications
Stainless steel for corrosives
PTFE for highly corrosive or ultra-pure media

Valve types include:

Economical CV™ Utility Valves
MFV Valves with “non-rising” stems ensure high precision, low hysteresis, and greatly enhanced resolution at a higher cost Power-operated needle valves include proportionating electromagnetic or stepping motor activated models:
PSV Solenoid Valves regulate fluid flow proportionately by increasing or decreasing input power to the coil. Optional Pulse Width Modulation facilitates flow control electronically. Valves are individually tested for 1 x 10⁻⁹ sccs He leak integrity
SMV Stepping Motor Valves offer high resolution of 0.00025”/step linear modulation for liquids or gases. Fluid- contacting materials are aluminum or a combination of PTFE sleeve and 316 stainless steel. SMV valves are intended for continuous, low differential pressure operations with no overheating. (100% Duty Cycle). Valves stay in position when de-energized.

Proportionating Solenoid Valve Driver Module

Pulse Width Modulated, Driver Module, (6APSD0101).
Proportional Solenoid Valve, 316/416 Stainless Steel, Viton® seals, 1/4" Compression Fittings

Proportional Electromagnetic Valves are designed to respond to variable power inputs to regulate the flow of liquids and gases proportionately. Valves are normally closed for added safety.

Pulse width modulated Driver Modules regulate the power supplied to Proportionating Electromagnetic Valves based on a reference signal. Set-point signals, 0-5 Vdc or 4-20 mA, input are employed to control the output pulse width modulated voltage at a fixed frequency (≈30KHz) and amplitude.
Brass Utility Needle Valve - 180 Degree (Straight) & 90 Degree Flow Pattern

Straight and 90 Degree Brass Utility Needle Valves are designed for controlling a broad range of liquid and gas flow rates. These rugged, reliable valves are suitable for OEM, laboratory, and bench-top flow control applications and available in three overlapping orifice-needle sizes,
Stepping Motor Valve

Stepping Motor Valves (SMV) are designed for high flow regulation of liquids or gases. This line of electronic two-way metering valves has high precision linear stepping motors that drive the valve spindle.

Unlike solenoid operated valves, these Stepping Motor Valves stay cool during operation so there are no control operating problems due to coils heating up. In addition, these valves have extremely fine resolution with standard 0.0005"/step (optional 0.000125"/step available), as well as very low differential pressures and high operating pressures.
316 Stainless Steel Utility Needle Valve - 180 Degree (Straight) & 90 Degree Flow Pattern

316 Stainless Steel Utility Needle Valves are designed for a broad range of gas and liquid flow rates in Straight Flow or 90 Degree Flow Patterns.
