Product Description
The Knight Global BPA9050B is a pneumatic control handle assembly featuring a 2-button valve block with 2-way, 2-position valves designed for up/down movement control of single-acting air balancers and lift assist equipment. The BPA9050B valve block functions like a switch—pressing the UP lever allows air into the balancer while pressing the DOWN button releases air through the pendant handle. Both thumb levers are spring return, meaning they automatically return to the neutral position when released. It is intended exclusively for use with pneumatic arms and balancers, not for sending common pilot signals.
The BPA9050B is part of Knight Global's BPA Series ergonomic pneumatic control handle line, which offers horizontal and vertical adjustment capabilities and is designed to serve as a replacement for non-ergonomic control handles in material handling applications. A repair kit (BPA2140) is available for servicing the BPA9050B. This valve block is incorporated into numerous Knight Global control handle assemblies including the BPA9300, BPA9330, BPA9130, BPA9430, BPA9434, and BPTA series handles.
