PNEUMATIC CYLINDER ACTUATOR
5/2-WAY VALVE
To expand and contract a cylinder with a 5/2-way solenoid valve using Arduino we need to use 2 digital pins, one x valve. Solenoid valves operates on 24V, and Arduino digital pins operates on 5V. So, to activate solenoid valves we’ll have to use relays.
Arduino circuit to control 1 solenoid valve using a 5V Relay
Arduino circuit to control 1 cylinder: 2 solenoid valves using 2 relays
Arduino circuit to control 3 cylinder: 6 solenoid valves using 6 relays.
Components used:
. 6 Relay Finder 5v.
. 6 resistors 1K
. 6 diodes
. 6 transistors NPN 2N3904
