5/3-way solenoid valve, 3 to 8 bar, ATEX Ex ia, centre position exhausted, ATEX approval, G 1/4"

In cycled systems the nominal size decides how fast a cylinder starts. This 5/3-way solenoid valve works with a nominal size of 9 mm at connection G 1/4". It is switched with 24 V DC. The switching function is centre position exhausted. The materials are body anodised aluminium and plastic, internal parts stainless steel and brass, seal NBR.

Advantages

• Media oiled and non-oiled, filtered compressed air, so no separate treatment is needed.
• Pressure inlet Port 1, which simplifies the piping.
• Flow rate of 1500 l/min, so the connected actuator moves without the valve throttling it.
• Switching function centre position exhausted, so the rest position is clearly defined.
• Nominal size of 9 mm, which defines the usable cross section of the switching position.

Applications

• Replacement of a defective valve of the same type in existing machines.
• Control of double-acting cylinders with an air demand up to 1500 l/min.
• Sequencing of pneumatic axes with connection G 1/4" in handling equipment.
• Installation in control cabinets with a supply of 24 V DC.

Standards and conformity

The valve carries the ATEX marking II 2G Ex ia IIC T6 Ga IP65 & II 2D Ex t IIIC T80°C Db IP65 to directive 2014/34/EU.
