Product Description
- The SMC AQ quick-release valve is suitable for pneumatic systems where residual pressure needs to be released quickly and safely.
- Typical applications are found in industrial automation, particularly in rapid cylinder retraction.
- It is ideal for installations with limited space and high air flow requirements.
- The SMC AQ quick-release valve features a compact design and is lightweight.
- Depending on the model, the housing is made of die-cast zinc or aluminium, whilst the internal components, such as guides and covers, are made of brass.
- The valves are available with either a diaphragm or a poppet valve.
- The series offers high flow rates and enables effective venting via standardised connection threads.
