Auxiliary pneumatic valves. Buy pneumatic valves online at the best price
Pneumatic distributors are mechanical devices that direct, manipulate and regulate the movement of compressed air; the closing or enabling, the direction and the flow of compressed air, in all its devices or peripherals.
Types of pneumatic distributors
The types of pneumatic auxiliary valves could be selected from:
- Flow regulating valves: Using a knob, this type of valve regulates the speed of a cylinder or peripheral associated with it.
- Locking valves: This type of valve, through an internal device, prevents a cylinder from falling suddenly in the event of a breakage or accident, thus avoiding breakages or damage that could be caused.
- Slide valves: These valves are used to empty a compressed air circuit, using a slide.
- Non-return or check valves: These valves leave the passage of compressed air free in one direction and prevent passage in the opposite direction.
- Safety valves: The safety valve is a safety device used to evacuate the necessary fluid flow from a pressure vessel, installation or equipment, in such a way that it does not constantly exceed the maximum admissible pressure. This valve defines the maximum pressure, preventing it from exceeding it; a spring opens to let excess pressure escape.
- Logic valves: There are a series of valves to control certain maneuvers used for pneumatic piloting, such as circuit selectors, NOT valves, simultaneity valves, sensors, quick exhausts, etc.
They are simple elements and easy to assemble. It requires little maintenance and is economical to install. Long durability, pneumatic distributors are safe, do not have explosive characteristics or produce excessive heat.
The compressed air used to move the pneumatic cylinders does not generate water hammer, which reduces breakdowns or damage to the equipment. They are used in practically all types of industries, where automation is present.
