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.

Extremely slim and small yet high performing, with a pressure range of up to 7 bar or down to 0.9 bar under vacuum: ideal if you want to operate a large number of switching valves next to each other in a small space. The 3/2-way NC valve with a flow rate of up to 5.8 l/min can also be expanded to a valve terminal with up to 20 positions.

The valve control module VAEM makes precise switching of solenoid valves easier than ever. Up to 8 channels can be parameterised individually. A temporary resolution of only 0.2 ms and the control of the valves via current – not voltage – enable extremely high preci­sion, e.g. for dispensing applications. The holding current reduction saves energy and minimises heat input.

Automation solutions for the automotive

and Tier 1 supplier industry

Many of Festo’s products are inherently free of copper. For example guides are made essentially of polymer. In order to be able to offer customers who manufacture lithium-ion batteries as many components as possible from our product range, we have optimised products specifically for use in this field – and we have replaced parts that contain copper with copper-free elements.

Ideal for laboratory analysis of clinical sample preparations, using highly integrated fluid technology from Festo. Sophisticated technology, advanced control electronics with maximum manufacturing precision together guarantee precise metering results from Festo liquid handling solutions.

Summary:

This technical report indicates that the most valves should be operated in high demand mode according to IEC 61508.

Summary:

For valves is the value “forced dynamization” defined. This technical report explains the background for this definition and gives recommendations for the application of valves which are not switched over a longer time period.
