The Streamtek™ Efficiency Advantage

Many industrial processes run compressed air continuously, even when a part isn’t present. A Streamtek™ Foot Pedal changes the game:

• Hands-Free Productivity: Allows the operator to position parts accurately with both hands while triggering the air blast exactly when needed.

• Instant Air Conservation: Eliminates “idling” air waste. The air flows only when the foot is on the pedal, leading to immediate energy savings.

• Ergonomic Design: Low-profile pedal height reduces operator fatigue during long shifts.

• Durable Build: Built to withstand the harsh conditions of a machine shop, including exposure to oil, coolants, and heavy footwear.

Compatibility & Setup

The Streamtek™ Foot Pedal Valve is a “plug-and-play” accessory for:

• Air Nozzles & Jets: Ideal for manual parts cleaning stations.

• Air Amplifiers: Perfect for localized fume extraction or cooling cycles.

• Small Air Knives: Controls targeted drying without the need for complex electronic solenoids.

Installation Guidelines

1. Plumbing: Connect your supply line to the “In” port and your Streamtek™ device to the “Out” port.

2. Exhaust: As a 3-way valve, it automatically exhausts downstream pressure when released, ensuring the air tool stops instantly.

3. Stability: For permanent workstations, the base features pre-drilled mounting holes to secure the pedal to the floor.

Application Spotlight

In manual assembly or benchtop blow-off stations, switching from a “constant-on” air line to a Streamtek™ Foot Pedal can reduce your air usage by up to 80% depending on the duty cycle of the operator.
