Pneumatic valves (123)

Pneumatic valves are key parts of pneumatic systems that allow the flow of compressed air to be controlled. There are several types of pneumatic valves. Each has a specific function it performs in a pneumatic circuit and is used in a variety of industrial applications. They are controlled in different ways, either by compressed air, solenoid or manually.

Throttling valves control the flow and therefore the cylinder speed or rotational speed of pneumatic motors. Stop valves prevent the flow of the medium in the opposite direction. Pressure regulating valves regulate the pressure in pneumatic circuits and thus the force in cylinders or the torque in pneumatic rotary motors. Path valves, or so-called path controllers, allow control of multiple air flow paths (e.g. control of the direction of movement of pneumatic cylinders).

Safety valves also have a special place for controlling the pressure in pneumatic systems. They prevent excessive pressure build-up, which can lead to damage to equipment or dangerous situations. They are often used to protect pneumatic systems and adjacent equipment from over-pressurisation, prevent dangerous situations, protect personnel, meet safety standards.

Safety valves, which are designed to control the pressure in pneumatic systems, also have a special place. They prevent excessive pressure build-up, which can lead to damage to equipment or dangerous situations. They are often used to protect pneumatic systems and adjacent equipment from over-pressurisation, prevent dangerous situations, protect personnel, meet safety standards.

The use of pneumatic valves is wide-ranging in production automation, where pneumatic valves are often used to control the motion and operation of machines in production lines. In assembly and handling, i.e. to move cylinders, arms and other devices. Vehicles in transport systems often include pneumatic valves to control air springs and braking systems. Pneumatic valves are also present in energy systems to control the flow of air and other gases.
