• Sorting out the truth about pneumatic standards
  Japanese test methods better predict pneumatic valve performance. SMC follows the latest ISO standards when rating pneumatic valve flow in terms of sonic conductance. Full stroke time of a pneumatic cylinder is inversely proportional to the maximum exhaust flow rate. represents the maximum constant...
• Big-time performance from compact valves
  , providing precise proportional pressure regulation. Electropneumatic-proportional (E/P) valves are typically used where applications demand precise control of pressure or force. The combination of a pneumatic valve and electronics accurately maintains preprogrammed pressures along with the ability...

• Establishing a new method for determining valve flow coefficient
  determined loss factors for gate valves, stopcocks, butterfly valves, and many other systems components. There has always been widespread disagreement among valve manufacturers regarding which flow equation should be used. During the 1950s, some users in the process industries began to realize...
• Selection Considerations for Control Valves Versus Regulators
  ) is the incorporation. of proportional and integral control modes capable of returning the measured variable. to the set point following load changes or system disturbances. Control is generally. within 5%, often within 1 to 2%. Rising stem control valves are typically globe valves commonly used to the 2 size...
• Optimizing plant performance with modern process controllers
  proportional. set to 50%. This means that when the. action wil result in control offset. process variable is `at set point' the. control output wil be 50%. Adjusting. The integral term eliminates the offset. the manual reset value has the effect of. It does this by repeating the action of. shifting...
• How to Streamline Air Circuits
  system with a servocontroller and proportional valve, they can provide multiple speed, force, and positioning capabilities. With the advent of fieldbus networking, pneumatic components can be simply attached to a system with less wiring and with the added capability to create centralized...
• Properties and Principles of Fluid Power
  systems is that in pneumatics, air is compressible. In hydraulics, liquids are not. What are the advantages of pneumatics? In pneumatics, a system needs only one power source. The work process creates a lower noise level than hydraulic systems, and pneumatic systems are relatively clean and operate...
• Go with the flow
  Start with flow rates, not port sizes, to properly spec control valves. Selecting solenoid and control valves seems like a straightforward process. Armed with orifice size or pressure differential, engineers usually choose the smallest or least-expensive valve. Little do they realize that competing...
• Sizing up flow forces
  rate and = mass density. Substituting for P from Equation 1,. Using the same values for Cdand cosa, and = 8.1 X 105 lb-sec2/in.4 (for typical petroleum oil),. (2) Fx = 6.15 X 10-4 Q2/A. As this equation shows, the axial component of flow force is inversely proportional to the throttling area when...
