Sullair inlet butterfly valve

Sullair · Inlet (intake) valve

All components

Air-cylinder-driven butterfly inlet valve used across LS-series machines, supporting modulation and on/off control.

De-energised state: NC

How it works

A single-acting cylinder rotates the disc against a return spring. The control solenoid (and on modulating machines the modulation valve) sets cylinder pressure, so disc angle tracks demand.

Field test procedure

  1. Hand-check disc travel with the machine locked out.
  2. Confirm cylinder holds pressure — a leaking cylinder gives lazy loading.

Symptoms & probable causes

  • Machine can't hold line pressure at full load
    Disc not reaching full open — linkage or cylinder.
