The air supply to a quarter turn pneumatic actuator can be regulated to control the speed of rotation

2025-03-14

The ability to regulate the air supply is a crucial feature of quarter turn pneumatic actuators. The rotational speed of these actuators is directly influenced by the volume and pressure of the compressed air supplied to them. When more air is allowed to enter the actuator chamber at a higher pressure, the piston or vane moves more quickly, resulting in a faster rotation of the output shaft. Conversely, reducing the air supply decreases the speed.

In industrial applications, this feature offers great flexibility. In a manufacturing process where the flow rate of a liquid through a valve needs to be adjusted gradually, regulating the air supply to the quarter turn pneumatic actuator controlling the valve allows for a smooth and precise change in the valve's opening degree. For example, in a food and beverage production line, where the filling speed of containers needs to be carefully controlled, the actuator's rotation speed can be adjusted to ensure accurate filling levels.

In HVAC systems, regulating the air supply to the actuator controlling the damper enables precise control over the air flow rate. This is essential for maintaining a comfortable indoor environment. By adjusting the speed of the damper's rotation, the amount of fresh air or recirculated air can be optimized, improving energy efficiency and air quality. Overall, the ability to regulate air supply for speed control makes quarter turn pneumatic actuators highly adaptable to a wide range of industrial requirements.
