Graphic Symbols Standards

Pneumatic symbols conform to and are devised from the

International Standard ISO 1219-1 1991
This covers graphical symbols for Fluid Power Systems
and Components
Port markings for fluid power valves are not covered by
the ISO standard. These are taken from the
recommendations of CETOP RP 68 P

Basic Symbols

Shapes

These shapes and lines in the relative proportions shown,

make up a set of basic symbols from which fluid power

symbols and circuits are constructed

Basic Symbols (shapes)

Symbol sets can be drawn to any size but their scale and
relative proportions are determined by a basic dimension
of your choice l

Pressure
regulators
A pressure regulator
symbol represents a normal
state with the spring holding the regulator valve
open
to connect
the supply
to the outlet.
The dotted
line represents
the feedback,
this opposes the
spring and can vary the flow through the valve from full
flow, through shut off, to exhaust. The symbol is usually
drawn in only this one state. The flow path can be imagined
to hinge at the right hand end to first shut off the supply
then connect to the exhaust.

Pressure relief valves

A pressure relief valve symbol represents a normal state
with the spring holding the valve closed.

The dotted line represents feed-forward, this opposes

the spring and can be imagined to lift the flow path.
When the pressure reaches an excess value the flow
path will line up with the ports and flow air to relief.

Valve symbol structure

Valve symbol structure

The function of a valve is given by a pair of

numerals separated by a stroke, e.g. 3/2..
The first numeral indicates the number of
main ports. These are inlets, outlets and
exhausts but excludes signal ports and
external pilot feeds.
The second numeral indicates the number
of states the valve can achieve.

Valve symbol structure

A 3/2 valve therefore has 3 ports (normally

these are inlet, outlet and exhaust) and 2
states (the normal state and the operated
state)
operated

The boxes are two pictures of the same
valve

A 5/2 valve symbol is constructed in a

similar way. A picture of the valve flow
paths for each of the two states is shown by
the two boxes. The 5 ports are normally an
inlet, 2 outlets and 2 exhausts

Valve symbol structure

The full symbol is then made by joining the

two boxes and adding operators. The
connections are shown against only the
prevailing state

Three position valves have a normal central

position that is set by springs or with a
manual control such as a lever
The flow pattern in the centre position
varies with the type. Three types will be
considered
1, All ports sealed
2, Outlets to exhaust, supply sealed
3, Supply to both outlets, exhausts sealed
