Overview
The Martin Engineering 8085602 quick exhaust valve is a pneumatic control component engineered for rapid air exhaustion in compressed air systems. Built by Martin Engineering, a leader in pneumatic and air cannon technology, this valve is designed to increase the speed and efficiency of pneumatic cylinders, air cannons, and related actuators by providing immediate pressure relief to atmosphere.
Key Features
- Rapid air exhaustion for faster pneumatic cycle speeds
- Compact, lightweight design for easy installation
- Three-port configuration: pressure inlet (P), outlet (A), exhaust (R)
- Diaphragm-based actuation for reliable operation
- Suitable for standard pneumatic system pressures (10–125 psi typical)
Technical Specifications
