Pressure Regulators
Pressure regulators hold downstream air pressure at a set value. Items include pressure regulators, pneumatic regulators, proportional pressure regulators and electro pneumatic regulators. Stable pressure matters because cylinder force and tool performance both change when supply pressure drifts.
Manual types suit fixed settings, while proportional and electro pneumatic types let a controller change pressure during operation. Consider the port size, the pressure range, the flow and the control signal. Gauges are often fitted to confirm the setting.
- Fixing working pressure on clamp circuits
- Varying force through a controller signal
- Stabilising pressure for testing equipment
