Throttle Check Valve G 1/8", Precision - Airtec DR 18

The Airtec DR 18 is a block-style throttle check valve in precision design with a G 1/8" port. It combines an adjustable throttle with an integrated check valve, so air is throttled in one direction and flows freely in the other. This sets the piston speed of pneumatic cylinders precisely within a pressure range of 0.5 to 10 bar.

Benefits

• Stepless throttling of the exhaust air for precise cylinder speed control.
• Integrated check valve that lets the reverse direction flow unthrottled.
• Body of anodised aluminium and brass for corrosion resistance in continuous use.
• NBR seals suited to filtered compressed air from 0.5 to 10 bar.
• Compact block design with a G 1/8" port for direct installation.

Technical data

Applications

For speed control of double- and single-acting pneumatic cylinders, in feed units, handling and assembly machines, and wherever extend or retract movements need to be slowed down in a controlled way.
