Humphrey HK5 miniature valve

Humphrey HK5 miniature valve: precision for air and liquid

The Humphrey HK5 miniature valve series is the gold standard for engineers who make no compromises on media separation and reliability. Whether you work with pneumatic signals or complex liquid flows, this series offers a compact and extremely durable solution. Inacom supports you in designing complete custom setups thanks to the modular construction of the HK5 and HKL5.

HK5 for air and HKL5 for liquids

Within this series we make an important distinction based on the medium you want to control:

• The HK5 (pneumatic): Specifically optimised for air and vacuum applications. Thanks to the diaphragm-poppet design, this valve responds extremely accurately, even at varying pressures.

• The HKL5 (liquid): This version is specially developed for liquids and aggressive gases. The HKL5 uses inert materials, so the internal mechanism is fully protected against corrosion or contamination by the medium. This makes it indispensable in analytical chemistry and medical equipment.

Maximum design freedom with manifold options

As an engineer, you want full control over your setup. That is why the Humphrey HK5 miniature valve is designed with a strong focus on system integration. You are not limited to standard inline mounting; you can build your own setup entirely:

1. Custom manifolds: The HK5-serie is highly suitable for subbase mounting. You can combine several valves (both HK5 and HKL5) on a single block.

2. Engineered solutions: Do you need a specific flow route? Our team helps you design manifolds that fit exactly in the available space of your machine.

3. Plug-and-play: By grouping valves on a manifold, you drastically reduce the number of fittings and tubes. This minimises the risk of leaks and speeds up the assembly of your device.

Compared with our Humphrey CSV cartridge valves, the manifold-based HK5 offers a more robust solution for applications where liquid separation (as with the HKL5) is a requirement.
