Review on Baomain Pneumatic FV 320 Momentary Posture by Eric Pruett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Input/Output ports too close together to be used (when using QD)

Input/Output ports too close together if you intend to use QD on it. I want to be able to use this for more than one item so I installed QD on it. I had to use my elbow at the entry port to get the distance needed to connect with them. You CANNOT use QD without an elbow. The markings for the "In" and "Out" connections are mostly covered by the metal housing. It would be MUCH better if the labels were ABOVE the connectors instead of under them. Functionally tested the valve after installing the QDs and it works fine. I don't know how it will behave over time until I use it more. Right now I'm planning to use this on a pneumatic bottle jack (20 ton) that will be the main part of the forging press.

Pros
  • Robust construction
Cons
  • No automatic
