Classification and function of pneumatic components?

Aug 09, 2021

(1) Air source equipment: devices used to produce compressed air with certain energy and pipeline gas treatment, such as air compressor, cooler and gas tank.


(2) Pneumatic actuator: components used for energy conversion, such as cylinder, air motor, etc.


(3) Pneumatic control element: an element used to control the pressure, flow and flow direction of the working medium and enable the actuator to complete the required motion law, such as pressure, flow and direction control valves and various logic elements.


(4) Sensor elements and conversion elements: pneumatic sensing elements (such as various sensors and travel valves) that detect the controlled parameters and turn them into air pressure signals, as well as elements that convert air signals to electrical, hydraulic and other signals.


(5) Pneumatic accessories: including air source purification, element lubrication, connection between elements, silencing and other elements.
