Metric Slow Start Flow Control Valves
Prestostart
Pneumatic slow start fttings
Principle
Designed for mounting on either the FRL or
power valve, Parker Prestostart slow start
function fttings permit the gradual increase
in pressure to a section of the pneumatic
system. This prevents shocks to the system
that may occur when full system pressure is
introduced thus reducing wear and potential
damage to components.
PIV Series
• Mounted on outlet port of FRL to control
downstream installation.
• Initial fow through the bolt is controlled by a
restrictor and adjustable needle valve.
• When 2/3 of the system pressure is
achieved the spring is compressed allowing
immediate increase to full system pressure.
• When the system is pressurized after an
emergency stop all cylinders will return to
the rest position.
PCV Series
• Mounted on the supply port of the
power valve or on the common supply of
associated power valves.
• Initial fow into the power valve is controlled
by the needle valve assembly.
• When 2/3 of the system pressure is
achieved the spring is compressed allowing
immediate increase to full system pressure.
• When the system is pressurized after an
emergency stop all cylinders will return to
the rest position.
Pressurization speed
Adjustment of the needle valve to regulate the
air fow controls the time taken to pressurize
the system.
Adjustment
• Use a spanner to prevent the bolt assembly
turning.
• Use an Allen key to adjust the needle valve.
Maximum torque 1N/m.
