Pneumatic technology uses pressurized gas to drive mechanical motion. The most common gas used in pneumatic technology is dry air. The air must be dry because moisture affects compressive qualities. Pneumatic technology is very similar to hydraulic technology, but in hydraulics, the driving fluid is always a liquid.
Pneumatic systems operate using a central pneumatic device, such as an air motor or compressor, and utilize manual or automatic solenoid valves to control airflow throughout the system.
Pneumatic systems contain many components, with pneumatic quick connect couplings being one example.
What are pneumatic quick connect couplings used for?
Pneumatic quick connect couplings attach to the ends of hoses and allow them to connect quickly and easily to different types of equipment. These are often found in locations where tools are changed frequently, such as dental surgeries.
Types of pneumatic quick connect couplings
Pneumatic quick connect couplings come in various sizes, seal types, connection styles, thread sizes, grades, and materials. These adapters allow users to quickly change hoses within a system, enabling an assortment of tools to be interchanged efficiently.
