As soon as a machine has more than a handful of actuators, grouping the valves in one place pays off. This valve terminal holds 12 stations and is controlled through DeviceNet. The air supply runs jointly through the manifold and the wiring through a single cable. The supply is 24 V DC. The materials are body and spool aluminium, seals NBR, pilot plastic.
Advantages
- Outlets M 7 at base plate (side), so the position of the fittings is known in advance.
- Mounted valves: Sub-base valves (5/2-way with spring return), so the terminal is ready for operation.
- Capacity for 12 valve stations, so the terminal grows with the plant.
- Control through DeviceNet, which reduces the wiring to a single cable.
- Supply with 24 V DC at 0.8 W / valve solenoid, which keeps the load on the power supply manageable.
