Clippard has recently launched what it is calling its most revolutionary product in years — its Cordis proportional pressure controls. Meaning “of the heart” in Latin, Cordis is at the heart of all that is important at Clippard, said Rob Clippard, VP of Marketing. “Everyone wants a smarter product these days and so taking our […]
Pulsing air impacts the bottom line for packaging applications
Pulsed air blow systems can provide cost-saving alternatives to continually blowing compressed air in bottling and packaging applications. Contributed by Alex Bakos, Product Sales Manager – controls Parker Hannifin’s Pneumatic Division As many companies continue to strive toward reducing operating costs, energy consumption is a key area where new technologies can improve the bottom line. […]
Lee Company unveils new GENVI solenoid valve
The Lee Company has announced its newest generation of versatile and innovative 3-port solenoid valves. In a miniature 10mm package, the genvi solenoid valve platform features high flow capacity, low leakage and ultra-low power consumption. Designed using innovative manufacturing techniques, this new valve offers not only unmatched reliability, but also an economical price point suitable […]
New solenoid valve array with CAN-BUS for on-vehicle applications
IMI Precision Engineering now offers its IMI Norgren Latching Solenoid Valve Array on CAN (LSC) for all on-vehicle applications that incorporates CAN-BUS communication. The LSC requires a single electrical connector and air supply, allowing for on-chassis field expansions with no additional wiring or air supply. For bodybuilders and dealers this offers an efficiency boost for […]
Electronic proportional flow control
The new EV 10 electronic flow control valve from C.Matic, Giussano, Italy, includes a circuit board, dc motor, tiny gear box and a needle valve. The PCB reads an electric input signal, processes it, and directs the servo-actuator to move the needle valve inside an orifice. The unit ensures linear flow rate changes that are […]
Parker now offers Ethernet node in its pneumatic valve portfolio
Parker Hannifin now sells an expanded range of network connectivity options for its valve platforms — including an Ethernet node for factory automation. Designed with Industrial Ethernet connectivity in mind, Parker releases the addition of the P2M Industrial Ethernet network node to allow for an inexpensive means of connecting the H Series valve, the Moduflex […]
Design flexibility with miniature manual valves
New IMI Norgren NV miniature manual valves come in variety of porting options. Small sizes and a wide variety of construction materials and porting options mean designers and engineers can easily find the right miniature manual valves to meet their space and functional requirements. Competitively priced and easy to install, these valves are problem solvers in […]
What are alternatives to Cv for rating flow?
The flow capacity of valves, connectors and other components in pneumatic systems is often expressed in Cv. (See, “What is the flow coefficient Cv?“) However, other methods and standards are also available to express flow capacity. Here are some important alternatives. Sonic conductance In place of Cv, some manufacturers choose to publish the sonic conductance, […]
Nitra miniature solenoid valves and manifolds for low-flow needs
NITRA GVP series pneumatic miniature solenoid valves from AutomationDirect are an excellent choice for many automation applications with low flow requirements. These two- and three-port valves are typically used for on/off flow control or with single-acting cylinders. Starting at $26.00, GVP series 12 or 24 Vdc solenoid valves are available in 10 and 15mm valve […]
What is the flow coefficient Cv?
In the pneumatic industry, Cv is one standard for expressing the flow capacity of devices used in pneumatic systems. However, there are multiple other standards that also express flow capacity, including effective orifice size and normal liters per minute, as well as measurements of actual flow rates at specific pressure differentials. These methods are not […]
