Almost all the basic mechanisms of any industrial equipment operate using compressed air energy. Often, equipment start-up is associated with valve actuation from compressed air flow. For the normal operation of these mechanisms, it is necessary to control the supply of compressed air to certain nodes of the mechanisms. Camozzi directional valves can help with this. They will quickly distribute air flows, ensuring operability of units and mechanisms.
Camozzi directional valve
A pneumatic distributor is a device that allows you to redirect the flow of compressed air under the influence of external forces. Most often, this function is performed by an electric coil, which is triggered by an electric current. The coil is connected to the Camozzi air distributor mechanism and opens up certain paths of compressed air, depending on the position of the valves.
When operating equipment, it is necessary to monitor its performance and the quality of the functions. In this regard, the Italian company has found the best option for the production of devices that satisfy most consumer requirements.
Principle of operation
The operating principle of the Camozzi air distributor is associated with certain specific conditions. Its work is affected by an external source, usually an electric current. An electromagnetic coil with a core, which is connected to the valves of the air distributor, closes or opens the direction for the flow of compressed air.
There are two types of these mechanisms with manual and combined control. The choice of a specific control method depends on the operating conditions of the Camozzi air distributor. It is worth noting that the combined control method is currently widespread. It allows you to use the so-called blocking when reducing the pressure of compressed air, while the pneumatic valve does not work, connecting the power contacts of the equipment control circuit.
Camozzi pneumatic distributor is connected to the pneumatic line via a two-channel, three-channel and four-channel method, using two types of design: spool and valve. Depending on the conditions of use, their designs differ.
Mounting is carried out in three ways. The choice of one of them determines the type of room and the external conditions under which the mechanism is used. Methods are called: pipe, butt and threaded. But do not forget about the pressure in the system. At higher values, the butt and pipe methods may not be suitable.
Specifications
Consider the main characteristics of the Camozzi 358 015 02 pneumatic directional control valve. It has compact overall dimensions, one-way control, spool-type design and a monostable spring-return valve. The device features a working pressure range from 1.4 to 10 bar, and a working temperature from 0 to +60 0 C. Air consumption per minute is up to 700 Nl, the housing consists of aluminum and its alloys. The material from which the spool is made is stainless steel. This device is allowed to be installed in any position.
Benefits
The main advantage of Camozzi air directional valve is its quality. Since it is produced by an Italian company, there is no doubt in the use of modern materials and technologies. The device can be used both at low and high temperatures. Also, the air flow pressure can vary from low to high. The distributor itself is designed so that it does not allow dirt and dust to enter. If the coil fails, it can be replaced without dismantling the product itself.
