Legris Pneumatic Soft Start Valve 1/4 in Threaded 10 bar 8 mm 7870 08 13

Legris 7870 08 13 Pneumatic Soft Start Valve is a high-quality control valve designed for pneumatic systems. It features a threaded 1/4 inch inlet connection and an 8 mm outlet connection, supporting a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar and a minimum pressure of 1 bar. This valve includes a male inlet port gender and is part of the 7870 series, produced in France to exacting standards.

The valve functions by gradually increasing air pressure when a compressed air line restarts after venting, which helps prevent system shocks caused by sudden pressure application. When downstream pressure reaches two-thirds of the supply pressure, the valve automatically establishes full flow. The soft start and pressure decay capabilities can be fully adjusted to optimize pneumatic system performance.

Typically mounted to the supply port of a control valve or on the common supply line feeding multiple control valves, this valve controls equipment downstream from its position. The black coloured identification washer indicates its function as a soft start valve.

This pneumatic soft start valve is suitable for use in various industrial applications including manufacturing, automation, fluid control systems, and HVAC. It improves the longevity and reliability of pneumatic components by reducing mechanical strain caused by abrupt pressure changes.

Designed for gradual air pressure increase during compressed air line restarts. Threads allow easy installation on supply ports or common supply lines. Soft start feature prevents shocks to system components by avoiding immediate full pressure application.

Adjustable settings optimise air line pressurisation time. Suitable for industrial pneumatic systems requiring controlled pressure build-up. Explore additional pneumatic valves and control components in EnvMart to support your industrial automation and fluid control projects.
