Miniature control valve
Third Quarter 2005
Other technologies
Automation specialists have become increasingly aware of the need to improve functionality and performance without compromising on cost or space. Motion and fluid control specialist, Norgren, has now developed a new valve, the VP12, specifically with these demands in mind. With over 20 years experience in proportional technology, Norgren has optimised the design of the VP12 to provide accurate pressure control in a cost effective package. Suitable for a wide variety of industry applications such as automotive, packaging, process and medical, the VP12 delivers excellent control characteristics, high flow capabilities and optimised use of space.
Available in various pressure ranges up to 800 kPa, the reliable and rugged VP12 is a compact solution requiring limited installation space. Easy to connect and simple to install, with an operating temperature range of 0 to 60°C and IP30 weatherproof protection, the devices have a maximum flow capacity of 200 litres/min and feature low power consumption.
The VP12 proportional valve delivers excellent control resolution, giving better system control at lower cost. Any loss of signal or power triggers a fail-safe mode. Norgren's complete range of proportional solutions can be found at www.norgren.com
