Valve terminal 1 Series, 4x 5/2-way single solenoid, M7 side-ported, EtherCAT - E.MC

With its integrated EtherCAT module, this valve terminal works decentrally, close to the cylinders. 4 single-solenoid 5/2-way valves on a 11.5 mm pitch switch at 1.5 to 8 bar.

Advantages

• Straight onto EtherCAT: bus connection 2x M12 socket, 4-pin, D-coded, power via M12, no output card needed in the controller.
• Swap valves without touching the tubing: the M7 outlets are in the sub-base, the valves are changed from above.
• Narrow build: 11.5 mm pitch per valve station, response time 15 ms or less at 5 bar.
• Reconfigurable: any station can later take a valve with one or two coils, including 5/3-way or 2x 3/2-way functions.
• Long service life: at least 40 million cycles, aluminium body and spool, NBR seals.

Applications

• Pick-and-place and handling units with small-bore cylinders, short-stroke cylinders and grippers on 4 to 6 mm tubing
• Decentralised valve terminals right at the machine, integrated into an existing EtherCAT network
• Installations with frequent valve changes, where the tubing should stay connected during a swap

Accessories

E.MC supplies M12 power cables, matching bus cables and blanking plates for unused stations.
