Valve terminal box with jumper module, 10 stations, 24 V DC, IP 40, 2.5 W per station

On valve islands the wiring effort grows with every solenoid that is connected individually. This terminal box for 10 stations bundles the signals and carries them through a single multipole cable that can address up to 22 valves. The built-in jumper module bridges unused stations, so pulse valves and 5/3-way valves with two solenoids can be planned in freely. Each station runs on 24 V DC with a power consumption of 2.5 W and comes with an LED status indicator and protective circuitry. The box slides onto the manifold plate on a dovetail guide and measures 303.5 x 291.5 mm.

Advantages

• Up to 22 valves addressed through one multipole cable, which removes single cores from the cable duct.
• 10 stations in one unit measuring 303.5 x 291.5 mm.
• LED status indication and protective circuitry at every station speed up fault finding.
• Power consumption of 2.5 W per station at 24 V DC with a tolerance of plus/minus 10 percent.
• Modular design allows single valves to be exchanged without releasing the wiring.
• Protection class IP 40 for mounting in control cabinets and enclosed machine rooms.

Applications

• Central valve island inside the control cabinet of an assembly or test rig.
• Machines with many short pneumatic axes where individual wiring would be too costly.
• Systems with a mixed population of pulse valves and 5/3-way valves.
• Retrofitting existing manifold plates when the number of stations is increased.

Standards and conformity

The terminal box carries protection class IP 40 according to the IP code of IEC 60529 and is rated for a control voltage of 24 V DC with a tolerance of plus/minus 10 percent.
