Pneumatic Cylinder Flow Control Valve

Solenoid air control valves rely on electromagnetic levers for controlling air flow and release to achieve proper compressor function.

This makes independent speed control of different cylinders a breeze. 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. A flow control valve is a needle valve with a check valve build in it. They ship with an integrated pilot check valve as well as a temporary intermediate stop dial.

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. However flow control valves allow flow go freely in one direction and restrict it in the other direction. 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.

Selecting the right flow control valve. You can connect a flow control valve into a port of a cylinder in two ways. Since these air piloted flow controls feature an integrated speed controller they offer the best of both worlds in many ways. Three way valves direct pressurized air to the cap end side of the cylinder.

Legris miniature flow control is specially designed for use with small bore cylinders. Compact push to connect valves include both an internal and external hex for easy tool free tightening and assembly. Unlike a needle valve a flow control valve regulates air flow in only one direction allowing free flow in the opposite direction. A needle valve restricts flow in both directions.

Pneumatic threshold sensors detect the end of an air cylinder stroke and signal when pressure drops. Order online or call 1 800 660 0733.
