Features

Reduce air consumption just by mounting to air cylinder



Air consumption reduced by 25%

Acquire two-pressure control just by mounting the product. Reduces the air supply pressure of the stroke on the nonworking side to 0.2 MPa.

Mounting and operation are the same as a speed controller

Equal response time

No delay of the response time with two-pressure control Improved output response at the stroke end due to rapid air-charge.
Improved response time of return stroke due to rapid air exhaust.

Compact 85*1 % reduction（Occupied volume: 230 cm3 ➡ 34 cm3）

The functions of the regulator and speed controller are combined.

*1 Comparison of AR20K-02-B + AS22m1F-02-08 and AS22R-02-08

Easy Adjustment

Push-lock type Only speed is adjustable.

Lurch Prevention

As this product is operated by the return stroke at a reduced pressure by the meter-in circuit, a sudden extension of the working stroke is prevented.



Variations

Applications and Load

Application Proposal for Air Saving Speed Controller

●Air consumption reduction ratio: 50%

* Comparison of air consumption when the supply pressure is 0.5 MPa
* In this case, the load to move the workpiece is piston area multiplied by 0.2 MPa.


●Air consumption reduction ratio: 46%
