2. Air-operated valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-operated_valve

   Four-way valves are the most commonly used components for directional control in a pneumatic system. [3] The 4-way valve can have four or five ports, with different positions and uses. Their most common function is to regulate the motion of a cylinder, motor, or other powering components.

3. Control valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

   Globe control valve with pneumatic diaphragm actuator and "smart" positioner which will also feed back to the controller the actual valve position. Taking the example of an air-operated valve, there are two control actions possible: "Air or current to open" – The flow restriction decreases with increased control signal value. "Air or current ...

4. Shuttle valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuttle_valve

   Air pilot control: converting from air to oil results in locking of the cylinder. Shifting the four-way valve to either extreme position applies the air pilot through the shuttle valve, holding the two air-operated valves open and applying oil under air pressure to the corresponding side of the cylinder. Positioning a manual valve to neutral ...

5. List of valves - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_valves

   Schrader valve: holds the air inside automobile tires; Security valve, a type of automatic shut-off valve (ASV): used to stop the flow of natural gas upon sudden pressure changes. Increased pressure or decreased pressure closes the valve (without using any external power sources).

6. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

   These types of valves are also known as automatic control valves. The hydraulic actuators respond to changes of pressure or flow and will open/close the valve. Automatic control valves do not require an external power source, meaning that the fluid pressure is enough to open and close them.

7. Pneumatic circuit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_circuit

   The direction control valve is used to control the direction of flow of compressed air. They are usually classified into normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) valves. The normally open valves will permit flow from the inlet port of the valve to the outlet port, normally the flow will be cut by changing the position of the valve.
