this..plz help me

Answer Posted / anwar mydeen

Air to open valve: the pneumatic valve will open when the
air is applied in to the actuator chamber. and the valve
will goes to close condition when u remove the pneumatic air.
In oil industry oil outlet and produced water outlet control
valves are air to open valves.

Air to Close: the pneumatic valve will close when the air is
applied in to the actuator chamber and the valve will goes
to open condition when u remove the pneumatic air.
