CPV14-VI Festo Solenoid Valve Supply Air

Product Description:

A key highlight of this series is its remarkable compactness. Each single valve plate has a width of just 10 millimeters. Within such a minimal installation space, it combines the functionality of two valves—either dual electric control or two position five way—resulting in an exceptionally high power density. This design enables the valve to be installed directly adjacent to actuators or equipment modules, significantly conserving control cabinet space.

The CPV10 features a modular splicing design, allowing multiple valve plates—typically between 2 and 8—to be linked together according to specific requirements. These can then be controlled uniformly via bus nodes. This modularity simplifies configuration and expansion, and if additional functionality is needed in the future, extra valve plates can easily be added.

Despite its compact size, the valve series boasts impressive flow performance, supporting a standard flow rate of up to 400 liters per minute, capable of driving most standard cylinders. Because it can be positioned close to the actuator, the air path length is significantly reduced, leading to lower pressure loss and faster cylinder response times.

This series offers a wide variety of electrical interfaces to suit diverse on-site requirements, including:

• Multi-pin interface: utilizes multi-core cables to simplify wiring.
• Fieldbus interface: compatible with various mainstream industrial protocols such as PROFIBUS-DP, DeviceNet, CANopen, and EtherCAT, facilitating smooth integration into automation networks.
• AS-i interface: ideal for straightforward distributed I/O control.

The valve island is rated IP65, offering robust protection against dust ingress and water jets from all directions, ensuring reliable operation in demanding industrial conditions. Furthermore, several models have obtained ATEX explosion-proof certification, making them suitable for use in hazardous environments like chemical and pharmaceutical industries where explosion risks exist.

Each valve plate comes equipped with an LED status indicator that visually communicates operational states such as on/off and fault conditions. Additionally, most models include manual control devices (manual triggers) that facilitate manual operation during commissioning, maintenance, or power failures, streamlining diagnostics and upkeep procedures.

Applications:

The CPV10 valve island is known for its compact design, flexibility, and high reliability. These attributes make it a popular choice in automation settings where both space efficiency and operational effectiveness are critical.

In general industrial automation, the CPV10 is ideal for a variety of applications including packaging machinery, assembly lines, material handling and transportation systems, as well as sorting equipment. Its versatility ensures seamless performance across these diverse industrial processes.

For industries that demand stringent cleanliness standards, the CPV10 valve island is extensively used. It finds applications in electronic assembly, semiconductor manufacturing, medical device production, and pharmaceutical packaging. In these fields, the need for high-volume and dependable pneumatic control components is paramount.

Additionally, specialized versions of the CPV10 valve island are designed for use in hazardous environments. Explosion-proof models are suitable for chemical and biological sectors where flammable or explosive gases and dust are present, ensuring safe and reliable operation under challenging conditions.
