Digital Proportional-Control Valve

March 23, 2006
The VP51 family of proportional-control valves now feature DeviceNet capabilities, providing command sign and feedback pressure.

Individual requirements can be defined with the DeviceNet parameters, as well as application specifics. The VP51 employs glandless lightweight Teflon-coated spool-valve technology. The unit is suitable for output pressures in the range of 0 to 150 psi, has low-power consumption (<100 mA/2.5 W), and can operate in both dry and nonlubricated compressed-air environments. Ambient operating temperature is 23 to 122°F.
