Pneumatic Cylinder Flow Control Valve

Selecting the right flow control valve.

Pneumatic cylinder flow control valve.

They ship with an integrated pilot check valve as well as a temporary intermediate stop dial. Pneumatic flow control and needle valves regulate the flow of compressed air. The valves pressurize and exhaust one outlet port to control a single acting cylinder or pilot another valve. Double flow control close specialty application valves specialty application csv series acv series pto valves binary valves impulse relays stroke completion pneumatic timers slide lockout valves 2 3 conduit outlet electric switches air operated electric.

Friendly order desk standing by to help you find what you need. Flow control valves are used to reduce the rate of flow in a section of a pneumatic circuit resulting in a slower actuator speed. A needle valve restricts flow in both directions. These valves close all ports in the off position to stop equipment in a locked position with air pressure holding it in place.

99 of our orders leave within 24 hours or less. 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. Legris miniature flow control is specially designed for use with small bore cylinders. Unlike a needle valve a flow control valve regulates air flow in only one direction allowing free flow in the opposite direction.

Air piloted flow controls. These valves close all ports in the off position to stop equipment in a locked position with air pressure holding it in place. Solenoid air control valves rely on electromagnetic levers for controlling air flow and release to achieve proper compressor function. Order online or call 1 800 660 0733.

A flow control valve is a needle valve with a check valve build in it. For use with polyurethane polyethylene or ptfe tubing these compact flow controls help control cylinder speed in pneumatic applications. You can connect a flow control valve into a port of a cylinder in two ways. This makes independent speed control of different cylinders a breeze.

However flow control valves allow flow go freely in one direction and restrict it in the other direction. 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. Pneumatic threshold sensors detect the end of an air cylinder stroke and signal when pressure drops. Three way valves direct pressurized air to the cap end side of the cylinder.
