There are two different types of poppet valves, namely ball seat valve and disc seat valve.
Ball seat valve poppet DCV
In a poppet valve, discs, cones or balls are used to control flow. Figure 1.1 shows the construction of a simple 2/2 normally closed valve. If the push button is pressed, ball will lift off from its seat and allows the air to flow from port P to port B.
When the push button is released, spring force and air pressure keeps the ball back and closes air flow from port P to port B. Valve position are shown in Figure 1.1(a) 1.1 (b) 1.1(C)
