2. Buoyancy compensator (diving) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buoyancy_compensator_(diving)

   By 2000 Mares S.p.a introduced the HUB integrated buoyancy compensator and scuba regulator system, a jacket style BC using a pneumatic control valve on the left side of the harness to operate inflation and deflation valves. The pneumatic inflation and deflation control valve made it unnecessary to lift the dump valve to get outflow as it ...

3. Pneumatic cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_cylinder

   Pneumatic cylinder, also known as air cylinder, is a mechanical device which uses the power of compressed gas to produce a force in a reciprocating linear motion. [ 1 ] : 85 Like in a hydraulic cylinder , something forces a piston to move in the desired direction.

4. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

   Control valves are normally fitted with actuators and positioners. Pneumatically-actuated globe valves and diaphragm valves are widely used for control purposes in many industries, although quarter-turn types such as (modified) ball and butterfly valves are also used. Control valves can also work with hydraulic actuators (also known as ...

5. Air-operated valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-operated_valve

   An air-operated valve, also known as a pneumatic valve, is a type of power-operated pipe valve that uses air pressure to perform a function similar to a solenoid. As air pressure is increased, the compressed air starts to push against the piston or diaphragm walls which causes the valve to actuate.

6. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

   Air (or other gas) pressure is the power source for pneumatic valve actuators. [1] They are used on linear or quarter-turn valves. Air pressure acts on a piston or bellows diaphragm creating linear force on a valve stem. Alternatively, a quarter-turn vane-type actuator produces torque to provide rotary motion to operate a quarter-turn valve.

7. Pneumatic circuit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_circuit

   The normally closed valves will not permit flow from the inlet port of the valve to the outlet port, normally the flow will be permitted only by changing the position of the valve. In general, valves are designated as 2/2 DCV, 3/2 DCV, 5/2 DCV, 5/3 DCV etc., in which the first number indicates number of ports and second number indicates number ...
