Logic Operations
In order to produce the required
movements by pneumatic cylinders under
certain conditions, it is often necessary to
combine signals from several control
elements through some logic operations
such as:
1. OR circuits
2. AND circuits.
1- Logic operation - OR circuit
The OR circuit has two inputs and a single
output. The aim is to be able to extend
the piston rod of a cylinder with two
different input elements, pushbutton S1
and S2. The contacts of the pushbuttons
S1 and S2 are arranged in parallel
branches in the circuit diagram as shown
in Fig. 3.1.b.
As long as no pushbutton is pressed,
the solenoid valve remains in the
normal position. The piston rod is
retracted.
If at least one of the two pushbuttons
is pressed, the solenoid valve switches
to the actuated position. The piston rod
advances.
When both switches are released. The
solenoid valve switches to the normal
position. The piston rod is retracted.

Truth table of the OR circuit:
The truth table depicts the status of the output in relation with specific
inputs. Let us assume the following
0: push buttons are not pressed and thus there is no input signal.
1: push button pressed and thus the input signal exists.
Y1 is 0 means the solenoid valve is not activated
Y1 is 1 means the solenoid valve is activated
The table below shows the possible outputs based on the input operating
conditions.

2- Logic operation - AND circuit
The AND circuit has two inputs and a
single output. The output of the AND
circuit exists only when both inputs are
existing. In this case the piston rod of a
cylinder will be advanced only if both
pushbuttons S1 and S2 are pressed at the
same time. The Two pushbutton switches
are arranged in series in the circuit
diagram as shown in Fig.3.3.b
As long as neither or only one of the
two pushbuttons is pressed, the
solenoid valve remains in the normal
position and the piston rod is retracted.
If both pushbuttons are pressed at the
same time, the solenoid valve switches
to the actuated position and the piston
rod advances.
When at least one of the switches is
released, the solenoid valve switches
to the normal position and the piston
rod retracted.

inputs. Let us assume the following

Y1 is 0 means the solenoid valve is not activated

Problem description:
The pneumatic press that is shown in the Fig.3.3 has to be operated by
two switches at the same time in order to protect the operator hands
from any possible injury during the press operation. The press will be
released automatically by a limit switch. However, another switch has to
be provided to release the press in case of the limit switch malfunction.

Latching Circuits
Definition of latching: It is a process where the relay contacts remain on
without keeping the relay coil energized. In other words, it is required
sometimes to keep the circuit powered for a certain function even though
a pushbutton switch is released to the open position. Fig. 3.4 illustrates
the concept of latching before activating the switch S1 and Fig.3.5 after
activating switch S1.
Fig.3.4 Before latching
Fig.3.5 After latching
ATM-414 – Electro-Pneumatics
16 Module 3: Logic Operations in Electro-pneumatics
Way of operation:
When the “ON” pushbutton switch is
actuated as shown in Fig.3.5.a, the relay
coil is energized and thus the contact K1
closes. Even after the “ON” pushbutton
switch is released the electric current
continues to flow via contact K1 through
the coil, and the relay remains in the
actuated position. The “on” signal is
stored. When the OFF pushbutton is
pressed the current flow is interrupted
and the relay becomes de-energized.
Types of latching:
1- dominant ON:
In Fig.3.5.a, if the “ON” and “OFF”
pushbuttons are both pressed at the
same time, the relay coil is energized.
That’s why the circuit in Fig.3.5.a is
called a dominant ON latching circuit.
1- dominant OFF:
In Fig.3.5.b, If both pushbuttons are
pressed simultaneously: the relay coil is
not energized. That’s why the circuit in
Fig.3.5.b is called a dominant OFF
latching circuit.

Title: Latching circuit
Objectives:
Upon the competition of this task, the student should be able to control
an electro-pneumatic system by using an electrical latching circuit.
Problem description:
Parts are to be pushed away from a multi-track gravity feed magazine
into a clamping device as shown below in Fig.3.6. By pressing a
pushbutton switch the parts are pushed out of the multi-track gravity feed
magazine by a slide. After the slide has reached the forward end position
it has to return to its start position.
Hint: A relay with latching function is to be used for signal storage.
