Plug-In Valve

March 23, 2006
The VTSA (Type 44) plug-in valve is easy to assemble or modify and provides reliable operation and easy maintenance.

The modular valve system allows subbases and valves to be added or removed as needed. The valve's wide range of pneumatic functions combined with various electrical interfaces lets users implement any function needed. Interfaces supported by the valve terminal include terminal-box (Wago-style snap connect); multipin connection, 37-pin sub-D; and CPX fieldbus systems. All interfaces are capable of driving 32 solenoids. The system can combine larger valves on a single manifold without a transition plate (Size 01 and Size 02). Coil voltages are available in 24 Vdc and 100 Vac.
