SS air motors meet ATEX approvals
Aerosol filling equipment specialist chose air motors that exhibited many key features as standard, such as a stainless steel construction and ATEX approval.
The new range includes five series of valves: ADEX A00, VA01, VA05, EVM, and EV15.
All the valves have been designed with reliability in mind, and are able to offer operating lives of up to 300 million cycles.
Due to their size and design, the components feature extremely high operating frequencies of up to 1200 cycles/min and response times as fast as 3ms (on) and 1.5ms (off).
Each series offers its own unique combination of specifications and benefits for maximum flexibility of installation and operation.
For example, models are available for either manifold, in-line or sub-base mounting, and a range of valve functions are also available depending on the requirements of each application.
Measuring only 10mm in width and offering flow rates of up to 200Nlitre/m, the miniature valves are ideal for use in the textile, semiconductor/electronics, and medical/healthcare industries, or in high speed sorting machines, labelling machines or general automation applications.
The direct acting valves can also be used effectively as miniature pilot valves.
