P&F (Pepperl+Fuchs) vs. Autonics Sensors: Choosing the Right Brand for Your Switch Box
In the ecosystem of industrial valve automation, the Limit Switch Box (Valve Position Monitor) is only as reliable as the sensor inside it. While the housing protects against the elements, the sensor is responsible for generating the signal that tells your control system whether a valve is open o...Read more -
Inductive Proximity Sensors vs. Mechanical Micro Switches: A Longevity Comparison
In the automated process industries—whether Oil & Gas, Water Treatment, or Chemical Processing—the reliability of a valve feedback system is non-negotiable. The Limit Switch Box (Valve Position Monitor) acts as the “eyes” of the control system, confirming whether a pneumatic actua...Read more -
The Difference Between SPDT and DPDT Switches in Valve Monitoring
In the world of process control and industrial automation, the feedback regarding a pneumatic valve’s status is critical. As the bridge between physical hardware and the control system, a Limit Switch Box (Valve Position Monitor) converts the physical position of a valve (Open or Closed) i...Read more -
Why Gold-Plated Contacts Matter in Mechanical Limit Switches
In the industrial automation sector, the reliability of a system is often determined by its smallest components. While massive pneumatic actuators and heavy-duty valves do the physical work, the limit switch box (valve position monitor) acts as the nervous system, sending critical feedback to the...Read more -
Understanding the Role of Cams in Limit Switch Boxes: Adjustable vs. Fixed
In the intricate world of industrial valve automation, precision is everything. While the pneumatic actuator provides the muscle to turn a valve, the limit switch box (valve position monitor) provides the brain, sending critical feedback signals to the control room, confirming whether a valve is...Read more -
How to Choose the Correct Voltage (AC vs. DC) for Your Solenoid Valve
When specifying a pneumatic control system, engineers often obsess over valve flow rates (Cv values) and port sizes, but they frequently overlook a critical electrical decision: Should you use Alternating Current (AC) or Direct Current (DC)? Selecting the wrong voltage type can lead to integratio...Read more -
Common Causes of Solenoid Valve Coil Failure and How to Prevent Them
In industrial automation, the solenoid valve is the muscle that drives your pneumatic system. However, the solenoid coil is the heart of that valve. When the coil fails, the valve closes (or remains open), bringing production lines to a costly halt. At Zhejiang KGSY Intelligent Technology Co., Lt...Read more -
5/2 Way vs. 3/2 Way Solenoid Valves: Functions and Applications Explained
In the world of industrial automation and pneumatic control, selecting the correct solenoid valve is critical for the safety, efficiency, and longevity of your system. Whether you are operating in water treatment, petrochemicals, or power generation, the two most common configurations you will enc...Read more -
