Compact one-way flow control valve, supply air regulating, G 1/4" to 8 mm, nickel-plated brass

The compact one-way flow control valve sets the speed of pneumatic cylinders by throttling the incoming air. This special version proves its worth on actuators with a small bore or a short stroke, where exhaust side control cannot build up a sufficient air cushion. In the opposite direction the check element opens so that the cylinder retracts without throttling. Compared with a standard version the overall height is around 30 % lower, which helps when mounting space is already crowded. The nickel-plated brass body with a G 1/4" thread and a push-in fitting for 8 mm tubing operates from -0.95 to 20 bar.

Advantages

• Overall height around 30 % lower than a standard one-way flow control valve
• Adjustment by hand without tools, then locked by pressing the cap down
• Supply air control for cylinders with small volume or short stroke
• Body in nickel-plated brass and PA 66, retaining claws in stainless steel
• Pressure range from -0.95 to 20 bar, temperature range -20 to +80 °C
• Assembled exclusively with silicone-free seals and lubricants

Applications

• Short-stroke and compact cylinders whose exhaust volume is too small for control
• Grippers and clamps in handling fixtures with limited mounting space
• Painting and bonding lines that call for silicone-free components
• Test rigs where the speed has to be readjusted frequently without tools
