Slow Start Flow Control Valve
Slow start valves enables you to control the rate supply pressures
introduced into your system after it has been vented (e.g. at the end
of the work day, emergency stops, or adjustments). This gradual
increase in pressure or “slow start”, prevents harmful mechanical
shock which may occur when full system pressure is immediately
introduced into a system. When the slow start valve is used, it
gradually returns cylinders to the position they were in before the
system air was vented.
