Default Those simple micro switch air valves??

Could somebody direct me as to who manufactures those little "micro switch" valves that are used for brakes.
Kind of like the BVM air micro switch, but without the pushing arm.............just the litle air valve on-off switch.
I think it was a Medical Device company, but can't remember the name.

Thanks,

David

Well I can tell you that they are a normally closed, 3-way (exhausting) vs a 2-way (non-exhausting) button valve. SMG can supply valves with 10/32 thread, or 1/16 barbs.

SMG has these:

Clippard also has some that are similar but both are bigger than the BVM type.
