Re: Sprinkler system valve as a pneumatics quick Release valve
4) No other solenoid actuators are permitted except for the one(s) in the festo pneumatic valve. (OR equivalent specs of another manufacturer... I had recalled there being a "NOTE 1" on the excel file for KoP... there is not such a note, a hydraulic sprinker valve is not an equivalent pneumatic valve. Look for purpose built. Maybe a paint ball gun has a device for air release quickly where a servo could power the "trigger"?)
