Re: How do I use the pneumatic Festo valves?

I am sad to report, our 2009 FESTO valve was DOA. So was our 2007 valve. Our 2008 Festo valve was OK though...I don't remember 2005 or 2006 Festo valve...

We use SMC valves. I am not sure what they compare in CV rating. Just hooking them up, it seems the Festo flows more CV than the SMC ones we have.
