Protect Your Valve: Air Quality for 4V210-08
90% of pneumatic valve failures are caused by poor air quality. To ensure your Airtac 4V210-08 reaches its 50-million-cycle rating, follow these rules.
Filtration Requirements
- 40-Micron Filter: The minimum requirement to prevent micro-particulates from clogging the internal pilot port.
- Moisture Control: Use an air dryer; water in the lines can emulsify factory grease, causing the spool to stick.
- Lubrication: While designed for oil-free use, if you begin using a lubricator, you must continue, as oil washes away the original factory lubricant.
