A direct acting solenoid valve is one in which the action of the solenoid alone switches the valve gate. Most solenoid valves are "piloted", which means that a relatively small solenoid valve is used to allow pressurized air to actuate the valve gate mechanism.
Because the solenoid does all of the work in a direct acting valve, the solenoid must therefore be larger than that of a piloted valve in order to generate the switching force. Piloted solenoid valves have the advantage of being more compact and consuming less current than a direct acting solenoid valve.
Direct acting solenoid valves are useful when switching low pressure fluids.

Which type of solenoid valve used for double acting actuator?
a Three Way Solenoid valve is required to operate a double acting Pneumatic Actuator , depending of the orientation of the Actuator could operate as a Fail to open or Fail to Close .
What is the differences of direct acting actuator and reverse acting actuator?
When a pressure signal is applied, the valve shaft moves in the direction opposite that of the direct-acting actuator, but it follows the same operating principle. In the reverse-acting actuator, the valve shaft is pulled into the actuator by the application of a pressure control signal.

Does a 99 Mitsubishi diamante have an egr solenoid or just the egr valve. If it does have the solenoid where is it related to the valve?
Yes, the Diamante has an EGR solenoid. On any Mitsubishi, if the car has an egr valve, it has a solenoid to operate the valve. Just follow the vacuum line from the valve and it will go to the solenoid. There may be another one way valve between the valve and the solenoid, though. The solenoid is electronic.
