Applications
- Pneumatic control systems requiring OR logic functionality
- Industrial automation equipment
- Pneumatic cylinders and actuators
- Manufacturing and assembly lines
- Any pneumatic application requiring selective air supply management
Working Principle
When air pressure is applied to either input port, the KV valve opens, allowing air to flow to the output port. If pressure is applied to both input ports simultaneously, the valve opens both paths, combining the air flows. This design ensures efficient and reliable air flow control in various pneumatic applications.
Benefits
