EXERCISE 195: Construct and control a single acting

cylinder using latching circuit

Objectives

At the end of this exercise you shall be able to
• select the components to construct and control a single acting cylinder using latching circuit
• construct the circuit on trainer board as per the diagram
• check the function of the circuit.

Requirements

Tools/Materials
• Pneumatic trainer board - 1 No. • Single Acting Cylinder - 1 No.
• Digital multimeter with probes - 1 No. • 3/2 DC single solenoid valve - 1 No.
• Regulated DC power • FRL - 1 No.
supply 24V/2A - 1 No. • Push button switch - 1 No.
• Pneumatic Source - 1 No. • Relay - 2 Nos.
• PU Tube - as reqd. • Connecting cables

Procedure

TASK 1: Select the components to construct and control the single acting cylinder
Using the Latching circuit
1 Identify the components using ISO 1219 symbol
2 Check the DC supply by using multi meter

TASK 2 & 3 : Construct the circuit and control the oscillating motion of a double acting cylinder

A Pneumatic Connection

1 Connect the Compressor to the FRL
2 Set the FRL for 6 bar
3 Connect the FRL to the Manifold
4 Connect input port (Port No.1 or P) of the 3/2 Solenoid valve to the Manifold.
5 Connect Output port of the 3/2 Solenoid valve to the Single Acting Cylinder
