PTS Flowbench Forum

I have a JKM 400 pilot style flowbench that I want to sell but it uses 4 electrical switches. 2 for the depression manometer and 2 for the flow manometers. I would like to replace these with the Clippard valves that are used in Bruce's plans. Would this work better as the electrical ones are hard to trouble shoot and are subject to leaking. Thanks for any help.

Here is the PDF schematic for the MTV-5 valves, this was posted on the old forum which is not accessible at this time

Thanks Bruce. Do you think that would work on a pilot style bench?

The control valves used in the JKM400 (based on info I found today on the board) would use basically a MTV-5 valve and two MTV-3 pneumatic switch valves.

Thanks Tom. I member on speed talk made a very detailed diagram for me but with 10 other projects going it kinda got pushed to the side. Maybe later in the year. Thanks again.
