What is Festo used for?
What is Festo used for?
Festo valves are used mainly in the suspensions and engines of motor vehicles and in overall transport industry.
What is Festo valve bank?
At Festo you’ll find directional control valves, proportional valves, safety valves, standards-based valves, fast-switching valves, media valves and process valves, actuated either electrically, pneumatically, mechanically or manually.
How does Festo valve work?
control the piston speed of a drive by throttling the exhaust air. In one direction, the exhaust air can be regu- lated, whilst in the opposite direction it can flow through unhindered. Flow passes through the valve in one direction, whilst in the opposite direction flow is blocked.
What is a 5’2 valve?
5/2 way is a five port, two position valve that will put a fluid or air into one end of a double acting device as well as allowing the other end vent to exhaust.
What is valve bank?
The directional seated valves are available as chained valves in a valve bank. This facilitates the combination of different circuit symbols or actuation types in order to save space, and such systems can also be used to actuate independent consumers.
What is oneway flow?
Function. Flow control or one-way flow control valves regulate the piston speed of pneumatic drives during advance and return strokes. This is done through suitable restriction of the flow rate of compressed air in exhaust air or supply air direction.
How does a 3 2 solenoid valve work?
This pilot valve is a small direct operated 3/2-way valve. The pilot valve delivers compressed air to a small air cylinder inside the valve. The compressed air in this cylinder pushes against the piston and actuates the solenoid to switch the valve. This way, a relatively small solenoid can be used to switch the valve.
What is a 3 2 valve?
A 3/2-way valve has three ports and two positions that can be driven pneumatically, mechanically, manually or electrically via a solenoid valve. They are used, for example, to control a single-action cylinder, driving pneumatic actuators, blow-off, pressure release and vacuum applications.
