Adjust thepressure level to
meet the requirement
If valve terminalswithvertical‑stacking regulatorsareused, the
pressure level canbeeasily
adjusted to theapplication’s
actual requirements. Thismakes,
for example, a returnstrokewith
reducedpressureeasy to imple-
ment.
Inmanyapplications, full force isonly required inonedirection. Pressure canbe cut inhalf for the return
strokewithout causinganyproblems. This isespeciallyeasy toachieve if valve terminalswithvertical-stacking
regulatorsareused. Compressedair consumption canbe reducedbymore than20%.
