Pneumatic Cylinder Speed Control Valve

For use with polyurethane polyethylene or ptfe tubing these compact flow controls help control cylinder speed in pneumatic applications.

Pneumatic cylinder speed control valve.

Made of plastic and stainless steel parts they have excellent corrosion resistance. Regulating flow from the cylinder is another way to control speed. 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. Compact push to connect valves include both an internal and external hex for easy tool free tightening and assembly.

Speed control during a work stroke can be accomplished by regulating flow to the cylinder. They control the speed of air powered equipment by adjusting the volume of airflow. Legris miniature flow control is specially designed for use with small bore cylinders. Mount these valves directly to cylinder ports eliminating additional tubing between the cylinder and valve for better control than inline valves.

The proportion air closed system valve is extremely precise. The mass flow of air leaving the pneumatic cylinder to atmosphere is controlled with the combination of an electronic mass flow control valve a mass flow monitor traditional four way five port solenoid valve and sometimes an additional electronic pressure regulator. The check valve allows free reverse flow when the cylinder retracts. This circuit maintains a constant.
