New high-pressure proportional controls

July 8, 2020 By Ken Korane Leave a Comment

The new Cordis HP500 from Cincinnati-based Clippard uses the company’s proven EV line of electronic valves to allow for steady, repeatable downstream pressure under static conditions. The result is precise, linear pressure control within a closed-loop system with high accuracy and repeatability. The Cordis HP500 uses a microcontroller, integrated pressure sensor, and two Clippard EV […]

What are alternatives to Cv for rating flow?

February 6, 2019 By Ken Korane 1 Comment

Clippard pinch valves

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, […]

What is the flow coefficient Cv?

January 28, 2019 By Ken Korane Leave a Comment

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 […]

Clippard unveils precision diaphragm regulators

October 3, 2016 By Paul Heney Leave a Comment

When Clippard invented miniature regulators in 1962, the MAR Series became very popular as a simple, robust, and cost-effective regulator in a small package with exceptionally long life. As regulator applications continue to increase, Clippard is meeting the demand with the newest addition to the reputable regulator line. The new DR-2 Series provides greater accuracy and repeatability (±0.15 […]
