Install and save:
In applications where chips or dust need to be removed or parts need to be dried and transported, the 2x 3/2-way solenoid valve VSVA with pulse function is a great asset. Not only does it reduce energy consumption, it also saves compressed air during pauses. When used as an air blast valve, the blast pulse is stronger than with a continuous air flow. This pays off within a very short time.

Summary:
Technical Reports 2 and 3 [1-2] and DGUV Information FB HM-076 [3] already explained the circumstances under which bistable valves can be used in safety-related applications. The present report links these reports to the current product portfolio of Festo AG & Co. KG. The suitability of the bistable valves listed for safety-related applications can be confirmed taking the previous series of technical reports and respective technical documentation of the individual components into consideration.

The VTSA is ideal for maximum pneumatic and electrical function integration. Especially innovative is the mix of 5 valve sizes on one valve terminal, without the need for an adapter plate up to size 2! The VTSA is fully compliant with ISO 15407-2 and ISO 5599-2 – yet is easy to integrate. It can be used as a complete installation solution for large-scale machine concepts. And is also available as a fl ow-optimised version VTSA-F.

Take a quantum leap in automation technology. By using suitable
components from Festo in an intelligent way, you can reduce the energy
consumption of your systems and thus specifically lower your production’s
carbon emissions.

The double-sided poster clearly shows the modules and connection options of the electrical terminal CPX and the valves and additional functions of the valve terminal VTSA/VTSA-F-CB on the front. On the back, implementable safety concepts and example circuits as well as application examples are shown in detail and in a comprehensible way, and the integration into the control architecture as well as configuration and circuit examples are described.

The double-sided poster shows the complete variety and far-reaching functional integration of the electrical terminal CPX and the two valve terminals MPA and VTSA. The electrical functions and connection options of the CPX modules as well as the valve functions and other pneumatic additional functions of the valve terminals MPA and VTSA are clearly presented by tables and graphics. What they all have in common are the part numbers and type codes in the tables, so that they can be ordered directly without a long search.

Reliable, efficient and optimally tailored to your application: ready-to-install

complete solutions pay off, whether they are used to control and monitor the compressed air and cooling water supply of entire welding lines or individual welding robots. Both in body shop and the assembly process.
