Pneumatic Schematics and Basic Circuit Design

Provided by: Tooling U - SME

"Basic Pneumatic Schematics and Circuit Design" provides an overview of different common pneumatic schematic symbols, including air treatment symbols; pressure, flow, and direction valve symbols; and actuator symbols. Further, the class describes an overview of the design principles of a pneumatic circuit and the placement of components within a pneumatic schematic. Without pneumatic circuit design and schematic symbols, designers would not be able to communicate to an engineer the necessary component placement in order to achieve the work for a particular job. After taking “Basic Pneumatic Schematics and Circuit Design” users will understand basic design principles in a pneumatic circuit schematic and be able to recognize the symbols of basic circuit components.
