About the Book
In the world of technology, electro-pneumatic systems are becoming increasingly popular. These systems combine the power of pneumatic systems with the control flexibility of electric systems, thus opening up new possibilities for high-performance machines. This hybrid technology incorporates solenoid valves to connect the control and power components. A typical solenoid valve is a converter that generates pneumatic outputs in response to electrical input signals. Elect electro-pneumatic systems utilize control and feedback elements like pushbuttons (PBs), relays, sensors, and timers to achieve the desired control.
This book delves into the workings of solenoid valves and various electrical control components. Numerous single-actuator and multiple-actuator electro-pneumatic circuits are presented to demonstrate various electro-pneumatic applications. The issue of signal conflicts and the various methods of eliminating them in electro-pneumatic circuits are thoroughly explained in this book.
