Types and Applications of Pneumatic Directional Control Valves www.airmaxindia.com
Common Types of Valves 2-Way Valve On/off flow control. Controls pressurizing and exhausting a single actuator. 3-Way Valve Bi-directional flow for double-acting cylinders. 4-Way Valve www.airmaxindia.com
Functionality Activation/Deactivatio n: Direct airflow to activate or deactivate components. Tasks: Facilitates lifting, lowering, pushing, and pulling. www.airmaxindia.com
● Industries: Manufacturing, automotive, aerospace. ● Tasks: Simple automation to complex motion control. Applications www.airmaxindia.com
Classification of Valves Number of Ports and Positions Actuation Methods ● Solenoid Operated: Electric current triggers valve movement. Pilot Operated: Uses compressed air from another valve. Manually Operated: Controlled by push button, lever, or foot pedal. ● 2-Way / 2-Position: On/off flow control. 3-Way / 2-Position: Pressurizing and exhausting a single actuator. 4-Way / 2-Position: Bi-directional flow for double-acting cylinders. ● ● ● ● www.airmaxindia.com
Spool Valve vs. Poppet Valve Spool Valve Poppet Valve ● Flow Path Control: Lifting poppet opens/closes flow path. Leak Tightness: Excellent and fast response. Applications: High-pressure systems and on/off control. ● Flow Paths: Sliding spool controls flow. Proportional Flow Control: Smooth and precise. Applications: Vacuum and precise positioning. ● ● ● ● www.airmaxindia.com
Two-Position vs. Three-Position Valves Two-Position Valves Poppet Valve ● Design: Open or closed states. Applications: On/off tasks like pressurizing/depressurizing. Advantages: Cost-effective and easy to maintain. ● Neutral Center Position: Blocks all ports. Control: Divert flow, hold position, or exhaust pressure. Applications: Actuation and holding functions. ● ● ● ● www.airmaxindia.com
Direct Acting Valves Design Response Applications Direct connection between solenoid coil and valve spool. Faster due to lack of pilot mechanism. Low-pressure and smaller flow rates. www.airmaxindia.com
Pilot Operated Valves Mechanism Control Applications Higher Uses pilot pressure to open main valve. More precise flow control. pressures and flow rates. www.airmaxindia.com
