Improve compressed-air safety with these check valves
This company has expanded its Basicline Series 25 with pilot-operated check valves for compressed air (photo). These nickel-plated-brass valves can be used in combination with pneumatic cylinders in a variety of industrial and medical applications to prevent injury and equipment damage in the event of sudden pressure drop in pneumatic cylinders. The pilot-operated check valves enable flow in one direction, which in return, blocks flow in the opposite direction, thereby preventing pneumatic cylinders from unintentionally deaerating in the event of a pressure drop. This valve is designed for a working pressure range of 1 to 10 bar, and a temperature range of –10 to 70°C. As an additional connection supplement, the company also offers a swivel joint in Series 25, which can be activated through compressed air or it can be used with manual activation. — Eisele Pneumatics GmbH, Waiblingen, Germany
