Designed to meet the demands of applications requiring higher pressures and increased flow rates, the Series 5000 fills a void in the market for reliable, high-performance solenoid solutions. Featuring a range of orifice sizes from 0.6 to 4.0 mm, and available in both 2-way […]
Distributed electro-pneumatics streamline equipment designs
Machinery builders and OEMs save space and improve functionality by applying electro-pneumatic I/O and solenoid systems throughout their equipment. By: Chip McDaniel, AutomationDirect For machine builders and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) alike, there is an increasing push to deliver smarter, more modular, and physically compact systems. Among the many design choices required to make this […]
Clippard release AIV series air-piloted media isolation valves
Like Clippard’s NIV and PIV lines of isolation valves, the AIV series features Clippard’s unique multi-functional valve stem design for longer life and minimal dead volume. The difference with the AIV series is that is that it also provides the added benefit of air operation, which is — by definition — intrinsically-safe. No solenoid means […]
Electro-pneumatic proportional pressure regulator for high flow applications
Engineers and other manufacturing professionals looking for a single device that regulates pressure extremely accurately while handling high flows will find it in the Proportion-Air QB4 electro-pneumatic proportional pressure regulator. The QB4 pressure control valve is a complete electronic pressure regulating package consisting of a pilot unit with two solenoid valves, closed-loop electronic controls and […]
