Product Overview
The Fisher 167DA-13 Three-Way Self-Operated Switching Valve is designed for reliable pressure-responsive flow switching in industrial pneumatic and gas control systems. Manufactured by Fisher, an Emerson brand, this mechanically operated valve uses control pressure acting against an adjustable spring-loaded diaphragm to direct gas flow between connected ports. Its three-way configuration supports automatic switching between flow paths, providing dependable operation in pneumatic instrumentation, industrial automation, and pressure-controlled process applications.
Part of the Fisher 167D Series, the 167DA-13 features a compact, rugged construction, adjustable spring mechanism, and pressure-operated valve plug arrangement for reliable switching performance. The valve responds to changes in control pressure without requiring an external electrical supply, making it suitable for pneumatic equipment requiring on/off switching, flow diversion, and pressure-related failover functions. The 167DA-13 configuration is listed with 1/4-inch NPT connections and a 0–60 psig control spring range. Its design supports installation in gas distribution systems, pneumatic control circuits, industrial instrumentation, and process automation equipment.

How do I find the right part for my system?
Three options. Search by part number if you have the OEM code from Parker, Danfoss, Linde, Kawasaki, Kayaba or Grundfos — our search recognises both manufacturer codes and aftermarket cross-references. Browse by category if you know the component type (pumps, valves, cylinders, etc.). Or send a spec sheet to our engineering desk and we'll cross-reference against our 3,000+ SKU catalogue within one business day.
Can you help me size a pump or valve for my application?
Yes — sizing support is included with every order. Send us your operating pressure, flow rate, viscosity, drive speed and duty cycle, and our engineers will recommend a suitable component from our catalogue with full datasheets. We don't custom-build parts ourselves, but we can spec the right OEM component for almost any standard industrial application.
Can you cross-reference a discontinued part?
Yes — cross-referencing is one of the things we do most. Send us the original part number (even if the manufacturer has dropped it) and our engineering desk will identify a current equivalent or compatible alternative. Cross-reference lookups are free and typically come back within 4 business hours.
