General specifications
Pressure range: 10 bar max.
Operating temperature range: -5 ºC to + 50 ºC
Body material: Die cast aluminium
Connection data – Valve connected as a 5/2 Valve
The air supply should be connected to port 1
Port 2 and 4 are outlet or cylinder ports
Ports 3 and 5 are exhaust ports and should be left open to atmosphere or fitted with silencers. See note below
Note: We recommend that the exhaust ports of the valve are fitted with silencers. These will reduce the noise of the exhausting air and prevent dirt entering the valve.
