Re: Creating no pressure with double solenoid?

Is there a way to have it where both of the solenoids can be off at the same time? Thanks.
one way is to use another solenoid inline before the solenoid you are using now.
ex) use a single before your double and plug the B and have a tube go from A to the double solenoid. have the tank connect to P.
so when there is no signal to the single, air will not go to the double resulting in no movement in your cylinders.

or,

use the configuration of being able to stop your cylinders at any point..
by just connecting a 3 way splitter to both exhausts of your double, and connecting another tube from that splitter to the P of another single solenoid. plug the B of the single and leave A open.
that way, you can stop the exhaust of your double by controlling the single. stopping exhaust of the double=no movement in your cylinders.

if you didn't understand or have any questions, i'll be happy to answer!
just pm or Email me.
