White Paper: Piston spool valves and poppet valves
A technical comparison of available solenoid valves
Why should you choose your valves carefully?
The increasing demands placed on valve technology in recent years have led to a formidable extension of the range of available technologies and valve types, models, and properties. The most commonly used are poppet valves and piston spool valves. Nowadays, there is hence a much wider choice of customised valve technology to successfully plan a project. However, choosing the right parts for the application at hand requires comprehensive knowledge and an accurate appraisal by the consulting engineer or technician. This White Paper is intended to offer you a brief overview.
This white paper contains information on:
- An introduction to valve technologies
- Poppet valves, piston spool valves and the cartridge principle – what you need to know
- Which valve type suits you best? A valve selection aid

Bistable valves in safety-related applications. An example.
Technical report TR-300003
Summary: Due to their bistable characteristics, bistable valves in certain applications present the user with tasks that seem to be difficult to solve. This application example is to show how a solution can be developed systematically taking the various operating states and operating transitions into account. Considering the various hazards in the various operating statuses of the machine appears a sensible approach to finding the solution. They require chronologically successive, different reactions of the safety circuit to implement the required protective measures.
