Dual-Flow Valves limit vacuum leakage in a system where some of the suction cups may not be in sealing contact with the work piece. Since vacuum flow is limited by a small orifice, DF valves are only recommended for non-porous parts or for slightly porous light weight parts.

There are two main ways to apply DF valves: The first is to bring DF equipped suction cups into contact with the work and then turn on the vacuum source. Non-sealing

cups will leak and cause the associated Dual-Flow valves to close to orifice flow only.

The second way is to turn on the vacuum source to close all DF valves before the suction cups contact the work and then allow the DF orifice flow to establish vacuum within the cups once contact is made.

In either case, part release is accomplished by removing the vacuum source and admitting atmospheric air to reopen the Dual-Flow valves. For a faster cycle time, use a blow-off pulse of compressed air to break the vacuum and release the part more quickly.

SIZING A VACUUM PUMP:From the table below, determine the orifice flow at your system’s maximum vacuum operating level. Multiply this by the maximum number of non-sealing cups in the system. Select a pump that will give this total flow rate at the system vacuum level plus a factor of safety.

CAUTION: If DF valves are used with a heavy porous part, the part may be dropped suddenly due to porosity flow through the part being greater than the available orifice flow. This can occour even if there is excess vacuum pump capacity. For this type of system, use Flow Sensor Valves.

TRI-FLOW VALVES

To order for use inline: TF18F-XX with G1/8 NPS Female. XX= Specify 0.4, 0.5 or 0.6 SCFM.Pay attention to cup size when ordering.

Tri-Flow Valves limit vacuum leakage in a system where some of the suction cups may not be in sealing contact with the work piece.

Tri-Flow Valves are a cross between Flow Sensor Valves and Dual-Flow Valves because they are fully open until the Flow Sensor section closes at the factory preset vacuum flow rate, then a bypass orifice meters vacuum flow to limit leakage to a manageable rate. Part release is accomplished by removing the vacuum source and admitting atmospheric air which will also reset any closed Tri-Flow Valves to open position. For a faster cycle time, use a blow-off pulse of compressed air to break the vacuum and release the part more quickly.

Tri-Flow Valves can handle greater porosity flow than Dual-Flow Valves due to the fact that they’re initially held open. Another advantage is the Tri-Flow metering orifice is protected by an integral filter for greater tolerance of contamination.

The normal way to set up a vacuum system using Tri-Flow equipped suction cups is to bring them into contact with the work and then turn on the vacuum source. Non-sealing cups will leak and cause the associated Tri-Flow Valve to close to orifice flow only. Tri-Flow Valves on cups in sealing contact with the work will remain fully open to handle higher porosity flow rates (normal leakage through the part) than Dual-Flow Valves can.

For a system handling non-porous parts, operation can be as described above or the vacuum source may be turned on before the suction cups are in sealing contact with the work. Tri-Flow Valves can pass vacuum flow through the metering orifice to establish vacuum within the suction cups after they are placed in sealing contact with the work and the Tri-Flow Valves will reset to fully open. This feature is also convenient for use in vacuum holding fixtures. This capability is the only advantage that Tri-Flow Valves have over Flow Sensor Valves.

For mid-to-high porosity parts, we recommend using Flow Sensor Valves where the closing set point can be adjusted to suit the application.

Flow Sensor Valves (FSV) are normally-open valves that snap closed when the factory preset flow rate is exceeded. Our FSV is insensitive to acceleration forces and may be used in any physical orientation. System vacuum level has no effect on the FSV set point, however, higher sys-tem vacuum levels will cause greater flow rates through a porous work place.

Flow Sensor Valves eliminate the problem of vacuum loss through non-working standard cups or through valved cups overhanging the work piece edge. These are especially useful where work piece size and orientation will vary. For maximum effective-ness, each suction cup in the system should be equipped with a Flow Sensor Valve.

Flow Sensor Valves may be manifold or located in-line rather than at the suction cup. Piping integrity is important since the FSV will sense a fitting leak as easily as leakage at a suction cup. Wherever installed, a suitable filter must be used upstream of the FSV. When used with EDCO fittings, a filter screen nests inside the fitting bore.

The optimum flow rate set point is best determined by testing the porosity of sample work pieces with a flow meter using the same suction cup size and style as will be used in the actual system. Porosity of items such as corrugated board can vary greatly from lot to lot so it is important to find the most porous part to be handled by the system.

A factor of safety must be added to the highest porosity test value to allow for variations in work piece porosity, system vacuum level, increased leakage due to wear and other factors. For porous work pieces such as paper and corrugated cases, the factor of safety probably should be in the 50% range. For non-porous work pieces such as plastic or metal, the factor of safety may be reduced.

It is necessary to size the vacuum pump to have enough capacity to close all Flow Sensor Valves where cups are not sealed against a work piece plus the total “porosity” flow through the sealed cups. EDCO air powered multi-stage vacuum pumps are ideally suited since they produce large vacuum flow rates at low vacuum levels (0-10 in-Hg) and can provide the flow necessary to close a large number of Flow Sensor Valves.

FLOW SENSOR VALVES: PATENTEDWhen used with large bellows-style suction cups, the cup should be pressed against the work piece to collapse the bellows before turning on the vacuum. This prevents accidentally activating the FSV by the high instantaneous flow rate caused by the bellows collapsing under vacuum.

The FSV will automatically reset when the vacuum is turned off for a short period of time. If desired, a pressure pulse can be used to back flow the FSV and clean off the inlet filter. This blow-off pulse will reset the FSV and will quickly release the work piece.

The FSVM version includes a monitor port where a vacuum sensor can be used to monitor whether the FSV is open or closed.

The FSV 12 is a larger 1/2” NPT version that is for use with larger suction cups but is functionally the same as FSV 18.

The FSV 10 is for use with 15mm and smaller suction cups but is functionally the same as an FSV 18.

HOW TO ORDER:FSV18 + FLOWRATE (SCFM x 10) + FITTING SIZE.

EXAMPLES:FSV18- 9-50 is a standard FSV that is set to close when a flow rate exceeds 0.9 SCFM and includes a size 50 cup fitting and filter screen.

FSV18-6-18M is an FSV set to close when flow rate exceeds 0.6 SCFM and includes a 1/8” NPT male fitting and filter screen for inline mounting.

AVAILABLE FLOWRATE SETPOINTS:FSV 10 = 0.1 to 0.6 SCFM in 0.1 incrementsFSV 18 = 0.3 to 2.3 SCFM in 0.1 incrementsFSV 12 = 0.5 to 6.0 SCFM in 0.1 increments

The RC18A employs a normally closed valve to seal against pump vacuum without leaking. When a compressed air supply is applied, the release valve shifts open at only 5 psi (0.3 bar) so that a full-flow burst of air can quickly dissipate (blow-off) system vacuum. Once shifted, the valve doesn’t try to close, but remains open. Once the compressed air source is removed it automatically resets to a closed position.

The RC18A should be used for high-flow vacuum release applications such as those involving vacuum reservoirs or larger single-stage or multi-stage vacuum pumps.

The RC18-040A operates the same as the RC18A but includes a 0.040 in. (1 mm) balancing orifice to meter the air flow when multiple Release Checks are supplied air from the same blow-off control valve. Without the balancing orifice in each release check, the air would follow the path of least resistance. This would starve some release valves of air while others would have a flow many times greater than necessary.

50 psi Maximum Pressure

Weight: .107 lbs. (48.5g)

Competitive products are simply check valves with a 30-40 psi (2-3 bar) cracking pressure. The high cracking pressure is necessary to insure a tight seal against vacuum developed by the pump. When a compressed air supply is applied to open the valve for blow-off, the internal spring immediately tries to close the valve as soon as flow begins. This has the effect of subtracting the valve cracking pressure from the blow-off air pressure. Because of this these systems normally have to operate above 50 psi (3.3 bar), which wastes compressed air.

dropped if the system’s vacuum source is lost. The vacuum trapped by the Vacuum Check will eventually leak down. The rate at which the vacuum diminishes will depend on the condition of all the components in the vacuum system. To increase the time delay interval, a volume chamber can be added to the auxiliary port. If the volume chamber is equal to twice the cup internal volume, the time delay interval will be approximately tripled, and so forth.

The VC18 should be used with cup diameters of 50mm and smaller. The VC12 should be used with cup diameters of 75mm and larger that are available with G1/2 NPS female fittings.

The Vacuum Check valve is designed to prevent the reverse flow of ambient air into a vacuum system. Vacuum Check valves are used to hold vacuum downstream whenever the vacuum source is removed or lost. Internally, a normally closed valve allows vacuum flow in the pump direction, but seals off when vacuum flow ceases. When a vacuum check valve is used in a system, some provision must be made to release the trapped vacuum in order to release the work piece. The RC18 and RC18-040 release check valves are designed for this purpose.

One application for the Vacuum Check valves is for energy saver circuits using a vacuum storage tank to accumulate and store vacuum for high-volume, short duration, flow rate requirements.

More commonly, a vacuum check valve with release check valve would be used with a single suction cup so a non-porous, high value work piece would not be immediately
