Flow control valves used in pneumatic circuits affect actuator speed. Understanding how flow control valves operate will allow you to increase or decrease flow rate to meet the needs of your pneumatic circuits.
This interactive online course will teach you about several types of adjustable flow control valves available. You will learn how flow control valves operate by reviewing different pneumatic circuit examples. Additionally, you will learn how an orifice is used to control flow rate. You will also learn about special purpose devices used in pneumatic circuits.
