1 Scope
This part of ISO 10041 specifies the test procedures and a method of presenting the results concerning the parameters that define the main characteristics to be included in the supplier's literature of electro-pneumatic continuous flow control valves, in accordance with ISO 10041-1.
This part of ISO 10041 is intended to
-
— facilitate the comparison of these types of valves by standardizing test methods and the presentation of test results, and
-
— assist in the proper application of these valves in pneumatic systems.
The specified tests are not production tests to be carried out on each valve manufactured.
NOTE 1 Tests related to electro-pneumatic continuous pressure control valves are specified in ISO 10094-2.
NOTE 2 Tests described in this part of ISO 10041 are performed on valves with exhaust port(s) connected to the atmosphere except for two-port valves.
