Two-way & Three-way Diaphragm Operated Pneumatic Control Valves
Diaphragm operated pneumatic control valves are a type of control valve that is used in pneumatic systems. In this type of valve, a diaphragm is used to control the flow of air or gas through the valve. The diaphragm is a flexible membrane that is positioned between two chambers and separates them. This allows for the direct control of airflow, regulating the pressure and flow rate of the system.
Two-way valves are the most common type of diaphragm operated pneumatic control valve. They regulate the inlet and outlet pressure of the system through a single port. This makes them a very efficient type of valve and they are widely used in many pneumatic control systems. The two-way valve works by allowing air to flow in one direction when the diaphragm is at rest, and allowing the outflow of air when it is activated. This type of valve is often used in applications where the pressure needs to be monitored or regulated.
Three-way valves are also available, which can control three separate pressures. This type of valve works in a similar way to the two-way valve by controlling the flow of air between the three chambers (inlet, outlet, and tank). It can also be used for more complex applications, such as controlling flows between multiple ports or dividing a single flow into two or more directions. This type of control valve is more expensive than a two-way valve, but it offers greater flexibility and control over the system.
Overall, diaphragm operated pneumatic control valves are an efficient and reliable way to regulate air or gases in a pneumatic system. They are used in a wide variety of applications, from basic pressure regulation to complex flow control. This type of valve is particularly well suited for use in applications that require precise control or regulation of pressure or flow. Two- and three-way valves are both readily available and fairly easy to install, making them a popular choice in many pneumatic systems.
