Product Overview

The Jetsys Defence Pneumatic Control Panel is engineered for mission-critical control of actuators, valves, and sequencing logic on aircraft and defence test systems. As a specialist Pneumatic Control Panel manufacturer, it combines aerospace-grade components with robust design practices to deliver accuracy, uptime, and easy service on the flight line and in the hangar.



Key Features of Pneumatic Control Panel

  • Aerospace-Grade Architecture

    Precision regulators, high-cycle spool valves, and low-leak fittings ensure stable pressures and consistent actuation timing.
  • Smart, Serviceable Layout

    Labeled bulkhead fittings, color-coded tubing, and front-access gauges reduce maintenance time and minimize human error.
  • Clean, Dry Air Assurance

    Multi-stage filtration with water trap and optional desiccant dryer protects seals, actuators, and high-precision pneumatic systems.
  • Controls Your Way

    Manual, electro-pneumatic, or PLC-based logic with analog transducers for pressure/flow feedback, alarms, and interlocks.
  • Ruggedized for Defence Use

    Shock-resistant mounting, corrosion-protected hardware, and wide-temperature operation suitable for ramp and depot environments.

Variants of Pneumatic Control Panel

  • Aircraft GSE Pneumatic Panel

    Sequenced extension and retraction for jacks, clamps, and fixtures with guarded controls and interlocks for maximum safety.
  • Environmental & Cabin Systems Panel

    Regulated, feedback-driven delivery for valves, dampers, test benches, and aerospace environmental systems.
  • High-Integrity Manifold Panel

    Compact manifold blocks with integrated regulators, proportional valves, and diagnostics for fast, precise actuation.


Benefits of Pneumatic Control Panel

  • Repeatable Actuation

    Stable pressure and precise sequencing improve test fidelity and on-aircraft servicing.
  • Lower Downtime

    Service-friendly design with clear labelling, color-coded tubes, and front-access components.
  • Scalable Control

    From manual toggle logic to PLC-based proportional control and data logging.
  • Lifecycle Value

    Rugged components and clean-air architecture extend seal life and reduce leaks over time.


Design & Manufacturing Approach

  • Our Pneumatic Control Panel Design Process

    Requirements capture → P&ID & layout → component selection → assembly → FAT (leak, function, safety) → documentation package.
  • As Your Pneumatic Control Panel Manufacturer

    Controlled build with serialized components and full traceability.
  • Quality Assurance

    100% leak and functional verification with documented test records and traceable materials.


Typical Options for Pneumatic Control Panels

  • Proportional Regulators

    Closed-loop pressure/flow control with fine resolution.
  • Redundant Supply

    Auto changeover between dual air sources for uninterrupted operation.
  • Pressure Hold / Bleed-Down Circuits

    Controlled depressurization and soft-start modules for safety.
  • Remote Monitoring

    Pressure trends, cycle counts, and alarm history via telemetry.
  • Rugged Enclosures

    Stainless housings and MIL-tone finishes for harsh defence duty.


Why Choose Jetsys Defence for Pneumatic Control Panels

  • Aircraft-Grade Precision & Safety

    Built for accurate, stable pressure regulation to prevent over-pressurization and ensure safe servicing of landing gear, brakes, shock struts, and hydraulic systems.
  • Rugged, Flight-Line Ready Construction

    Heavy-duty frames, corrosion-protected valves, vibration-proof gauges, and industrial-grade pipe fittings ensure reliable operation in extreme heat, cold, dust, and high humidity.
  • Leakage-Free, High-Integrity Pneumatics

    PTFE-sealed fittings, reinforced hoses, safety relief valves, and non-return circuits maintain stable airflow with zero pressure loss during servicing.
