What Is a Pneumatic Actuator Valve and How Does It Work

2025-04-08

A pneumatic actuator valve is a device that controls the flow of fluids in a pipeline using compressed air as the driving force. It mainly consists of a valve body and a pneumatic actuator.

The working principle is as follows: Compressed air is first supplied to the pneumatic actuator. Inside the actuator, there is often a piston or diaphragm. When the compressed air enters the actuator cavity, it applies pressure to the piston or diaphragm. This pressure causes the piston or diaphragm to move, generating mechanical force. The mechanical movement is then transmitted to the valve stem or shaft. According to the type of valve, such as a globe valve or a check valve, the movement of the valve stem enables the valve to open, close, or adjust the flow rate. For instance, in a globe valve, the up - and - down movement of the valve stem connected to the disc controls the fluid flow through the valve. The control of the valve's position is achieved by regulating the supply of compressed air, usually with the help of control valves and sensors to ensure precise control of the fluid flow.
