Using dual QEVs...
Posted: Fri Jan 30, 2015 5:55 am
Sorry for so many threads, but have searched and have no one to ask, I see it has been done before and posted on these forums. I now have purchased a second identical Parker QEV.

What I am interested in is how integrated/divided the QEVs need to be, I don't want just one doing its thing and the other nothing. Is it best to run as 2 systems apart from the barrel and pilot or can they share the chamber?
Intention is to set the components up symetrcally as possible then run the 2 QEVs with the barrels combined hopefully via a Y rather than Tee to aid airflow, they will be piloted/filled via a 3/8" 2/3 solenoid valve (not true 3//8" ports that it is the connector size and the actual port is more oblong/pill shaped)
Its this one - http://www.aliexpress.com/item/3-8-3V31 ... 61369.html
Do you think it will be large enough to port the solenoids, I see people using Schrader valves, are these like the car tire ones or do they do a whole range?
Otherwise I will use a cheap Chinese black box QEV, but this will get confusing for me!
Any advice? Thanks
