Air Flow Control Valve Operation

Balanced spool and sleeve design with easy operation regardless of system pressure.

Air flow control valve operation.

Also known as 4 way and 5 3 closed center valves. A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller. They create two actions and have two exhaust ports which allows you to control the speed of each action by attaching a flow control valve to each exhaust port. In automatic control terminology a control valve is termed a final control element.

Often used to extend and then retract a cylinder at different speeds they create two actions and have two exhaust ports which allows you to control the speed of each action by attaching a flow control valve to each exhaust port. Designed for continuous operation particularly suitable for variable duties. Due to the free central flow design and automatic self cleaning feature of the segment edges during valve operation flushing connections are provided. These valves close all ports in the off position to stop equipment in a locked position with air pressure holding it in place.

4 way 3 position manual air control valves provide high flow. Flow control valves are used to reduce the rate of flow in a section of a pneumatic circuit resulting in a slower actuator speed. This enables the direct control of flow rate and the consequential control of process quantities such as pressure temperature and liquid level. Selecting the right flow control valve.

Simple installation and commissioning.
