1. Model Breakdown
• R215VS:
• Likely an internal code from the manufacturer (e.g., "R" for series, "215" for size/pressure rating, "VS" for version/special features).
• Requires confirmation from the specific brand (e.g., Parker, Festo, SMC), as coding rules vary by manufacturer.
• Foot Pedal Valve:
• Clearly identifies the product as a foot-operated valve, used to control fluid (gas/liquid) flow via foot pedal actuation.

2. Typical Applications
Foot pedal valves like theR215VSare commonly used in:
• Industrial Automation: Controlling pneumatic cylinders, fixtures, or tools.
• Medical Equipment: Sterile operation for surgical tables or dental chairs.
• Laboratory Devices: Precise gas/liquid delivery control.
• Automotive Repair: Operating pneumatic tools (e.g., impact wrenches, lifts).
• Food Processing: Hygiene-compliant fluid control.

3. Technical Specifications (Example)
Without brand-specific data, here are typical parameters for foot pedal valves (may apply toR215VS):
【表格】
Parameter Possible Range/Description
Operation Foot-press (on)/release (off) or proportional control
Port Type Threaded (e.g., G1/4, G1/2), quick-connect
Working Pressure 0.1–1.0 MPa (pneumatic) or higher (hydraulic)
Flow Rate Depends on port size (e.g., CV 0.5–5)
Material Aluminum alloy, stainless steel (medical/food-grade)
IP Rating IP65 (dust/water-resistant) or higher
Special Features Anti-misstep design, latching function, dual-position control
------
4. Structure & Working Principle
• Structure:
• Typically includes a valve body, foot pedal, spring return mechanism, and seals.
• Valve Body: Internal channels determine fluid path (e.g., 2-position 3-way, 2-position 5-way).
• Foot Pedal: Non-slip texture, adjustable actuation force (on some models).
• Seals: O-rings or specialty materials (e.g., PTFE) for leak-free operation.
• Working Principle:
• Pressing the foot pedal moves the spool to alter fluid flow; releasing it resets the spool via spring action, cutting off or restoring flow.

5. Selection Considerations
To confirmR215VSspecs, provide the manufacturer/supplier with:
1. Application: Industrial/medical/food, etc.
2. Fluid Type: Compressed air, hydraulic oil, water, etc.
3. Pressure & Flow Requirements.
4. Port Standards(e.g., NPT, BSP).
5. Environmental Needs(e.g., explosion-proof, corrosion-resistant).
