Clippard Minimatic EV/ET Electronic valves and manifolds provide a complete system for efficient interface with electric and electronic circuits with special application in the medical industry. The standard valves convert low voltage, low current signals into high pressure (100 psig) pneumatic outputs. Optional low pressure/medium flow and low pressure/high flow models are available. The valves are precision-built 2- way or 3-way control valves, utilizing a unique valving principle with no sliding parts. Complete poppet travel is a mere .007” resulting in low power consumption and exceptionally long life. Special valves made of stainless steel with Viton or EPDM seals are also available. All valves are lubricated with oxygen compatible lubricants.
These valves are supplied in normally closed, normally open and universal styles.

Clippard has the broadest product line in the miniature and sub-miniature pneumatic product market with special application to the Bio-Medical industry. Founded by W. L. Clippard, Jr. in 1941, the company started out in manufacturing electronic test equipment. In the 1950’s, Mr. Clippard recognised a need for miniature pneumatic devices in manufacturing and began to produce a small line of component products. The appeal of these products was such that, by the late 1960’s, Clippard Instrument Laboratory was strictly a pneumatic manufacturer. The company has continued to have steady growth through the years with introductions of new and innovative products.
Well known are Clippard, for the original design & manufacture of the famous “Mouse Valve.”
Note: That all products are now available in both Metric & Imperial thread forms.
CLIPPARD HAS ALSO PIONEERED THESE INNOVATIONS
The Modular Valve Series
The Mouse Valve Series
The Stainless Steel Rolled-Construction Cylinder
The Electronic Manifold Card.
