Description
High-quality pneumatic solenoid valve from Mindman. This valve is 5/2-way, bistable, equipped with two coils. The valve has G 1/4 inch ports (BSPP female thread). The coil voltage is 230 V AC and the power is 4.9 VA. Please note that the exhaust ports have G 1/8 inch threads, they are smaller than the other ports. The valve can only be operated with compressed air (filtered up to 5 μm) that doesn't need to be lubricated. The operating pressure is 2 to 8 bar (29 to 116 psi). Mounting on manifold with a central supply and vent possible. Response time is 0.03 s. The valve has a Kv flow rate value of 0.8 Nm3/h (862 Nl/min). This valve is equipped with a manual override. Never exceed the valve limits (pressure, temperature, voltage, media, etc.). Do not apply any voltage to the coil when the coil is removed from the valve in order to prevent burn-through.
A 5/2-way valve has five ports and two states. Two ports (A and B) connect to a controlled component, for example a double acting cylinder. One port is used to supply pressurized air (port P), the two remaining ports are exhausts (port S and R) and are connected to respectively port B and A. By switching state, either port A is pressurized and port B vented, or port A is vented and port B pressurized. If the valve is used to control a double acting cilinder, one valve state is used to move the cylinder in one direction, and the other state is used to move the cylinder in opposite direction.This valve is single acting, which means that the valve is controlled by one solenoid and returns to the rest position by means of a spring. If the solenoid is not activated, the valve returns to the rest position (right quadrant).
Pros:
- Low flow resistance (Kv=0.8 m3/h)
- Fast and reliable operation
- Long lifespan (12.000.000+ cycles)
- Low energy consumption (4.9VA)
- Maintenance free design
- Coil can be installed in four directions (4 x 90°)
- Designed for manifold mounting
Cons:
- Only for (clean) air, not for other media or vacuum
- Minimal pressure of 2 bar required for proper operation (pilot operated valve)
MVSC series
The Mindman MVSC series consists of indirectly operated pneumatic solenoid valves in 3/2, 5/2 and 5/3-way configuration. The MVSC and MVSC1 series are designed for manifold mounting and share the same mounting dimensions. The MVSC series need a certain minimum differential pressure for operation. Therefore, they are not suited for vacuum applications. They can be used up to a maximum pressure of 8 bar. The valves are available with 24 V DC, 230 V AC and 110 V AC coils and equipped with a manual override. The body material is aluminum with an HNBR seal. The valves are available with BSP or NPT ports. The valves in MVSC series are characterized by a long and reliable service and a maintenance-free design.
Mindman is an international manufacturer of high-quality pneumatic components with main production in Taiwan. With a rich production history, a very wide range and cost-efficient production of high-quality products, they are one of the true market leaders in the pneumatics industry.
