- Pneumatic Circuit Symbols Explained (Automation Direct) – Directional air control valves are the building blocks of pneumatic control. Pneumatic circuit symbols representing these valves provide detailed information about the valve they represent. Symbols show the actuation methods, the number of positions, the flow paths, and the number of ports. Here is a brief breakdown of how to read a symbol.

- Safety Standards Update Summer 2020 (Automation Direct) – This is the biennial update to major changes to the American National Standards Institute or ANSI code, specifically the B11.0 dedicated to “Safety of Machinery.” Since 1922, the B11 standards for machine safety were first approved with the understanding that machinery design through setup and operations meet specific safety criteria. Overall the major changes to the ANSI code are B11.0 has been updated to B11.0-2020, and B11.19 has been updated to B11.19-2019.
