What are pneumatic diagrams?

Figure 3 shows a pneumatic circuit consisting of a 4-way solenoid valve (SOL01) operating a double-acting cylinder (CYL01). Filtered air from the air preparation unit feeds a solenoid valve controlled by a PLC. The solenoid valve symbol SOL01 indicates it is a single-acting, spring-return valve.

Where are pneumatic circuits used?

Examples of pneumatic systems and components

Air brakes on buses and trucks.
Air brakes on trains.
Air compressors.
Air engines for pneumatically powered vehicles.
Barostat systems used in Neurogastroenterology and for researching electricity.
Cable jetting, a way to install cables in ducts.
Dental drill.

What do pneumatic symbols mean?

Directional air control valves are the building blocks of pneumatic control. Pneumatic circuit symbols representing these valves provide detailed information about the valve they represent. Symbols show the methods of actuation, the number of positions, the flow paths and the number of ports.

What is electro-pneumatic system?

The electro-pneumatic action is a control system by the mean of air pressure for pipe organs, whereby air pressure, controlled by an electric current and operated by the keys of an organ console, opens and closes valves within wind chests, allowing the pipes to speak.

What is electro-pneumatic application?

Electro-pneumatic actuators are widely used to automate a number of areas of industrial applications, from production to assembly and packaging systems. With electro-pneumatic actuators, the pneumatic components are controlled by electrical components including sensors, switches and industrial computer systems.
