5/3 G1/4'' Center Closed Foot Pedal Valve 2.5-10bar/35.0-140psi
To lock the equipment in place when the motion ceases, select a 5/3-way valve with a closed center. As they have a closed center, they trap air within the cylinder when they are stopped. In vertical cylinder applications, for instance, you need a valve to keep air pressure off when the equipment stops, in order to prevent the rod from failing. With spring return actuators, the valves return to their original position as soon as the actuator is released. Pneumatic foot pedal valves are often used to operate pneumatic cylinders.
