Check Valve
The check valve allows oil fl ow in one direction and blocks it in the opposite direction.
The pilot-operated check valve acts like a regular check valve when the pilot is not activated. By supplying the pilot with pressure, the check is held open and the valve lets oil fl ow in both directions.

Fixed Throttle Valve
A fi xed throttle valve restricts the fl ow going through a line. The fl ow going through the valve sets the speed of the actuator located further downstream.
A variable throttle valve works like a fi xed throttle valve. In addition, it allows the specifi cation of the opening percentage. The setting of the opening percent-age can be done when editing the valve or when simulating a diagram
This is a variable fi ne throttle valve assembled in parallel with a check valve. Õóâüñàã÷ ¿ë áóöàõ òîõèðóóëãàòàé õàâõëàãà. Ýíý áîë õÿíàõ õàâõëàãàòàé çýðýãöýý áàéðëàñàí òîõèðóóëàã÷ õàâõëàãà ãýíý.
The spring loaded check valve is used to allow oil fl ow in one direction and block it in the other direction. However, opening the check depends on a suf-fi cient pressure being supplied to the valve so that the check can compress the spring.

Fine Throttle Valve
The fi ne throttle valves or also throttle valves with diaphragms function inde-pendently of the viscosity of oil. The weak infl uence that temperature has on it comes from the particular shape of the opening of the throttle. The value of the diaphragm can be selected in the Properties dialog.

Variable Fine Throttle Valve
Fine throttle valve for which the diaphragm is variable. The diaphragm can be adjusted during editing and during simulation.
The piloted operated check valve open behaves like the regular check valve. The only difference is that when the pilot pressure is positive (non-zero), the check valve is opened and the fl uid can fl ow from port 2 to port 1 (the pressure at port 2 must of course be greater than the pressure at port 1).
The piloted operated check valve close behaves like the regular check valve. The only difference is that when the pilot pressure is positive (non-zero), the check valve is closed preventing the fl uid from fl owing in any direction.

Filter
Filters purify the air by blocking the solid contaminants. They are available in various fi ltration grains and are used in various places in a pneumatic circuit. Where air moisture condensation may form, a fi lter with an automatic drain must be installed. The condensate accumulates in the fi lter’s bowl up to a cer-tain level. A fl oater then activates the opening of the fi lter drain and the conden-sate is expelled. The drain closes when the bowl is empty. From left to right you can see the Filter, Filter & separator, Manual drain fi lter, Manual drain coalesc-ing fi lter, Auto drain coalescing fi lter, and the Coalescing fi lter.

Heater
The heater is usually used before a cold start to reduce the viscosity of the oil and to avoid cavitation in pumps.
A cooler is used when you need to lower the temperature of compressed air. A cooler is usually located at the output of a compressor, before the conditioning units.
Based on same operation as the fl uid cooler, the coolant is air. Oil passes through an air-forced radiator. This system is less effective than the previous one but easier to implement.
The thermometer displays the temperature of the oil in the tank. Therefore, it is fi tted on the external wall of the tank and is usually integrated with a level gauge.
The differential pressure gauge makes it possible to measure the relative pres-sure between 2 points of a pneumatic system.

Available torque for the shaft is directly proportional to the difference in air pressure between the input and output ports.
The output port of a one direction motor is usually connected to the exhaust and, the air fl ow being important, it is fi tted with a muffl er.
The angular transducer is useful only for rotary actuators (motors). To use this transducer, the corresponding checkbox must be selected in the component properties of the motor, once the box is checked a new variable will be cre-ated in the variable manager. These transducers permit the user to measure, at all times, the position, rotation speed, and external torque at the shaft of the component. These values are stored and updated in the three corresponding variables that, in turn, can be used by controllers, internal logical variables or certain input components.There are two types of external torques that can be specifi ed by the user: a driving torque that will affect the shaft at all times and a resistive torque that will affect the motor only when the shaft is turning.There are three ways to specify these torques:-By fi lling the value in the basic component properties for the resistive torque.-By defi ning the curves for drive and resistive torques.-By assigning two internal variables, one for each force.

Rotary Actuator
The rotary actuator is used to transform pneumatic energy into alternating rotary movement. It works like a pneumatic motor with the difference that the shaft movement is restricted to a fraction of a turn. Rotary actuators are available in various models which have a rotation varying between 45o and 360o. The rotary actuator in Automation Studio has a rotation of 180o (half-turn). Available torque at the shaft is directly proportional to the difference in air pressure between the input and output ports.
The pump is the heart of any hydraulic circuit. It transforms the mechanical power supplied by a motor, either electrical or thermal, into fl ow. Pumps can have a fi xed or variable displacement. If a pump has a fi xed displacement, the outgoing fl ow is always the same for a given rotation speed. If a pump has a variable displacement, it is possible to vary the outgoing fl ow even if the rotational speed remains the same, this is done by varying the volume of oil pumped for each rotation of the pump’s mechanism. There is a wide range of control systems available for variable displacement pumps, the most commonly used being the manual control and the pressure compensated control.

Coupler with Check Valve
The coupler with check valve is used to plug and unplug easily and rapidly a component to the pneumatic pressure source (compressed air). The socket of the coupler has a check valve that closes as soon as the coupler is unplugged, and allows an air fl ow when the socket and pin are connected. The pin does not have a check valve so that air contained in the component to which it is connected may be evacuated when the coupler is unplugged.
Plugs are used block fl uid fl ow. The two plugs on the left are used to plug distributors’ ports, The plug on the right is used to prevent fl uid to fl ow in a pressure line.
The function of the air fi lter is to fi lter the air inhaled by the tank. During the operation of the circuit, the oil level in the tank varies according to the needs.
Almost all pneumatic components need to be lubricated to work correctly and have a satisfactory life span. The best way to achieve this is to install a lubricator which will allow constant and automatic lubrication to the correct level. Oil is atomized into the compressed air fl ow and the resulting oil mist is then trans-ported by the air fl ow to the component requiring it. It is important to try and install the lubricator as close as possible to the component/system that requires lubrication so that oil mist condensation is reduced to a minimum.
A pressure indicator has a window in which an indicator changes color according to the presence or the absence of pressure. A very light pressure is suffi cient to activate the pressure indicator.
The shuttle valve has two inputs and one output. Air fl ows from the output if one or both of the inputs are under pressure. Air can fl ow freely in the opposite direction if none of the inputs are under pressure.
The sequence valve is usually located on the supply line of a cylinder or on a branch of a hydraulic circuit that is isolated from the main circuit. When the pres-sure in the main circuit reaches the set pressure of the sequence valve, it opens and lets oil fl ow to the cylinder or to the branch of the circuit. This setting can be done when editing the valve or when simulating a diagram. The sequence valve allows oil fl ow in only one direction. Its use is therefore limited to places where oil always circulates in the same direction.

The check allows the oil to fl ow freely from the output to the input when the pressure at the output is greater than the pressure at the input.
The counterbalance valve is used to counteract the effects of a driving load that could be applied to an actuator. A load is said to be driving when the resulting force applied to the actuator is applied in the same direction as that of the actuator motion. For example, a force that pulls on an extending cylinder rod is a driv-ing force. The counterbalance valve is also used to decelerate a moving actuator.

The piloted pressure reducing valve makes it possible to manage fl ows and pressures higher than the non-piloted pressure reducing valves. Its behavior is iden-tical to the non-piloted valves but when it is connected to a pressure limiting device for which the pressure of adjustment is lower than that of the reducer, then the reduction of pressure is done with the pilot.
The piloted counterbalance valve is normally open and has 4 ports. Port 1 is the input port. Port 2 is the output port. Port 3 is the pilot port that can shut the valve if it is receiving a non-zero pressure from the circuit. Its role is the same as the spring for the regular counterbalance valve. Port 4 allows to force the valve opening. Fluid fl ows from port 1 to port 2 if the pressure at port 4 is greater than both the pressure at port 3 AND the pressure setting.

It is the output port when the valve is closed. Port 4 is the drain, a tank can be connected to it. As soon as port 3 is disconnected or blocked, the poppet relied valve behaves like a sequence valve with check. It becomes open when the pressure at port 1 is greater or equal to the pressure setting. If port 3 is con-nected to a tank, whatever the pressure at port 1, the valve stays closed and fl uid exits by port 3. The Poppet relief valve is normally closed. Port 1 is the only input port.

Like almost all pressure controls, the counterbalance valve only lets oil fl ow in one direction. If fl ow is needed in both directions, the valve has to be fi tted with a check. The pressure setting of this component can be done when editing the valve or when simulating a diagram The counterbalance valve is used to counteract the effects of a driving load that could be applied to an actuator.

3 Way Pressure Regulator
The piloted pressure regulator has the same behavior as the regular pressure regulator except that the spring is replaced by a pilot.
When the pressure in the system increases above a preset value, the relief valve opens and lets the oil fl ow to the tank. This component acts only in case of an emergency, to bring down the pressure to its set value to protect components from pressure surges. The pressure setting can be done when editing the valve or when simulating a diagram
SA cylinders (spring extend) are used when hydraulic energy is required only to retract the rod. The spring force will allow the rod to extend. This force is opposed to the rod retraction and must therefore be considered when calculating the diameter of the cylinder.
SA cylinders (spring extend) are usually controlled by a 3/2 directional valve.
A linear position transducer is integrated into every cylinder, use the sensor button in the cylinder confi gurator and select the correct sensor. A new variable will automatically be created in the variable manager. These sensors are used to measure the piston position X (%), linear speed V (m/s) as well as external force F (N) applied at the tip of the rod. These values are stored and updated in three variables that can be used by controllers, internal logical variables, and certain input components.There are two types of external forces that can be specifi ed by the user: a driving force that will affect the rod at all times and a resistive force that will affect the rod only when it is moving.There are three ways to specify these forces:-By fi lling the value in the basic component properties for the resistive force.-By defi ning the curves for drive and resistive forces.-By assigning two internal variables, one for each force.

Double-Acting Cylinder
Double acting cylinders are used when hydraulic energy is required in both directions of the rod movement.
Since the rod is on one side of the piston, the areas on which pressure is applied are not equal on both sides. If you apply equal pressures and fl ow on both sides, there will be a difference in thrust depending on whether the rod is extending or retracting. Furthermore, if the same pressure is applied on both sides of the piston at the same time, the rod will extend.

Double-Acting 2-Cushion Cylinder
DA 2-cushion cylinders work like double acting cylinders. However, they are fi tted with a hydraulic shock absorber that will diminish the intensity of the shock at the end of the stroke, by reducing the speed of the piston when it nears the end. With a real cylinder, speed reduction is adjusted with screws located at the ends of the cylinder.

Differential Cylinder
Differential cylinders, like all double acting cylinders, are used when pneumatic energy is required in both directions of the rod movement. The rod diameter is proportional to the piston diameter so that the area on the side of the piston, and the one on the side of the rod follow a 2:1 ratio. This type of cylinder is used in regenerating circuits where the forces and stroke speeds on either side are equal.

The telescopic cylinders make it possible to obtain a signifi cant extension with small overall dimensions. They are composed of several encased pistons one in another. The number of pistons can be 2, 3, 4, 5, etc. In this case, cylinders are described as cylinders with 2, 3, 4..., extensions. In the software, the number of extensions is 3.
When a pressure is applied to a telescopic cylinder, it is the piston with the larger diameter that will come out fi rst. When it reaches its full extension, it is the piston with the second lower diameter that will come out and so on. The re-entry sequence is reversed compared to the extension sequence.

If a pump has a fi xed displacement, the outgoing fl ow is always the same for a given rotation speed. If a pump has a variable displacement, it is possible to vary the outgoing fl ow even if the rotational speed remains the same, this is done by varying the volume of oil pumped for each rotation of the pump’s mechanism. There is a wide range of control systems available for variable displacement pumps, the most commonly used being the manual control and the pressure compensated control.

Double Cylinder with Pivot Bearing
The double cylinders are composed of two cylinders and a pivot bearing. They make it possible to convert a linear movement into a circular motion. The angular amplitude of the pivot bearing can vary between ±1/12p (±15°) and ±11/12p (±165°).
The user can, using the drop-down list, select the rotation angle (+/-) Degrees of freedom of the pivot bearing. These values, multiples of ±1/12p, are: ±1/12p (±15°), ±1/6p (±30°), ±1/4p (±45°), ±1/2p (±90°) or ±11/12p (±165°).
The increments where you can place sensors is equal to the smallest increment of the rotation of the pivot, i.e. 1/12p (15°). To each one of these points, you can attach a magnetic sensor or a reference to this type of sensor.
Note: on the symbol, the black circle of larger diameter represents the reference point.

These values are stored and updated in the three corresponding variables that, in turn, can be used by controllers, internal logical variables or certain input components.There are two types of external torques that can be specifi ed by the user: a driving torque that will affect the shaft at all times and a resistive torque that will affect the motor only when the shaft is turning.There are three ways to specify these torques: -By fi lling the value in the basic component properties for the resistive torque.-By defi ning the curves for drive and resistive torques.-By assigning two internal variables, one for each force.

Rodless 2-Cushion Double-Acting Cylinder
Rodless 2-cushion cylinders are used when pneumatic thrust is required in both directions of the carriage movement.
When available space is a consideration, you can use a rodless cylinder in which the piston is linked to a carriage. This carriage will move as the piston does. The connection between the piston and the carriage can be mechanical or magnetic.
Since there is no rod, the areas on which pressure is applied are the same. At constant pressure, there will be no difference in thrust and speed for the carriage movement, in both directions.
This cylinder is also fi tted with a pneumatic shock absorber that will diminish the intensity of the shock at the end of the stroke, by reducing the speed of the piston when it nears the end, like the shock absorber on regular cylinders.
Rodless 2-cushion cylinders are usually controlled by a 5/2 directional valve.
A linear position transducer is integrated into every cylinder, use the sensor button in the cylinder confi gurator and select the correct sensor. A new variable will automatically be created in the variable manager. These sensors are used to measure the piston position X (%), linear speed V (m/s) as well as external force F (N) applied at the tip of the rod. These values are stored and updated in three variables that can be used by controllers, internal logical variables, and certain input components.There are two types of external forces that can be specifi ed by the user: a driving force that will affect the rod at all times and a resistive force that will affect the rod only when it is moving.There are three ways to specify these forces:-By fi lling the value in the basic component properties for the resistive force.-By defi ning the curves for drive and resistive forces.-By assigning two internal variables, one for each force.
