In many applications, the flow of air or other gases must be controlled.
Oxygen is becoming increasingly important, not just in the
life sciences sector, but also in food and biotech. The gas must
always be precisely dosed, whether it is used to control protective
gases in production or for breathing air in medical devices. And
meeting the high demands on reliability and performance is just as
important as cost efficiency. The new VEMD does both: it offers high
dynamic response and is very favourably priced.

The new VPWI is based on the VPPI and can be used for all applications where volume control is required. It offers extremely short operating times, a stable valve position and extensive functionality, from setpoint adjustment to an
MFC-like function, making the VPWI extremely fl exible in use.

In mobile applications, e.g. portable oxygen generators, the emphasis is on minimal energy consumption and low weight. At the same time devices should offer high reliability and resistance to the stresses of everyday operation. Piezo technology is one of several key technologies offered by Festo.

This lightweight cartridge valve is compact at just 15 mm and has a large flow rate of up to 210 l/min at 2 bar. The compact design and high flow rate of the proportional solenoid valve VPWS make it the optimal choice for use in medical technology. It is also suitable for other application areas and industry segments in which gas flows of 5 l/min to 500 l/min at up to 6 bar have to be regulated.
