3.3.1

Soft/start valve, for progressive pressurizing the pneumatic lines 
when switch on.
Is indicated as safety valve, to quickly exhaust the downstream 
circuit.
- Manual override;
- Exhausting function;
- Low consumption;
- Modular assembly with airline equipment.

For airline equipment see page 3.2.1
For coils type ASA12... see page 2.200.1
For connector type A122... see page 2.210.20
Pressure gauges to be ordered separately, see page 3.50.1

OPERATING CONDITIONS

Start-up phase

By actuating electro-pilot or pneumatic-pilot 

 ( or the manual override ), piloting air will push the poppet 

 down opening this way the main 

power valve and at the same time, closing the exhaust 

.

Air from inlet 

 will go through the regulation needle 

 and out to 

A

.

Switching and working phase

In the moment the pressure difference between 

 and 

A

 is P(A) ≥ ½ P(P) the poppet 

 fully open and outlet pressure 

A

 rapidly increase 

until equalize inlet one at 

.

Soft-start valve will not represent any obstacle for the air-flow going through it.

Closing and exhausting phase

By deactivating electro-pilot  or pneumatic pilot 

 ( or the manual override ), the poppet 

 will reposition stopping the air from inlet 

 and 

contemporary exhaust the downstream air in the circuit from 

.
