As we have found the old festo block has a Cv of .3 so it is good. So are you saying the SMC valve of 2008 had a .4 Cv? and if so were did you get this information from.
Don't make a statement unless you are sure of your facts. I always check my facts before I post.

from the 2008 rule book:

Quote:
<R88> There is no limit to the number of solenoid valves, pressure regulators, pressure gauges,
and connecting fittings that may be used on the ROBOT. All such devices must be “off the
shelf” pneumatic devices rated by their manufacturers for pressure of at least 125psi.
We used a manifold with 4 SMC valves rated at .4 Cv.
