The user of the VP51 can define individual requirements through the DeviceNet parameters and can set the application specifics needed for the unit simplifying set up which ultimately delivers benefits in terms of time savings and cost thus delivering that much desired competitive advantage.
Norgren specialises in sophisticated high technology proportional solutions that allow variable and precise in process control of pressure, flow, force and position.
Applications for the DeviceNet VP51 range include adhesive dispense, paper tensioning and laboratory sampling.
The series incorporates advanced spool technologies thus allowing true step-less pressure or flow control.
The benefits of this combined technology are smooth response and low noise.
Employing glandless lightweight Teflon coated spool valve technology the VP51 has the benefit of proven reliability with figures in the range of 30 million cycles and is particularly resistant to corrosion and wear.
Suitable for output pressures in the range of 0 to 150 psi the VP51 features low power consumption (<100mA/2.5W) and can operate in compressed air environments that are both dry and non-lubricated.
Ambient operating temperature is set at -5C to 50C and the units benefit from IP65 protection.
