Frequently Asked Questions

What is a manual control valve?

A manual control valve is a device that regulates fluid or air pressure through direct operator adjustment rather than automated signals. In plastic tubing extrusion, manual pressure control valves like OLC's MicroAir I series use a precision 30-turn knob to set and maintain ultra-low air pressure levels inside extruded tubing, ensuring consistent outside diameter and wall structure.

What is the difference between ATO and ATC valves?

What's the difference between PSV and PRV?

What pressure ranges are available for OLC's manual pressure control valves?

Can these manual pressure control valves maintain stable pressure with varying flow rates?
