Unrivalled In-Line Pneumatic Valve Range Saves Space, Time and Money



Littleton, CO, USA - 28 October 2002 - Global pneumatics expert Norgren has launched a range of competitively priced in-line valves that feature higher flow rates than any other valve of the same body and port size.

The V60 Series inline valves employ stainless steel spools and static seals, helping to increase flow rates and cycle life. Smallest in the line-up is the V60, with an impressive flow rate of 750l/min for a 1/8" ported body. Next is the V61 offering 1,400l/min, for a ¼" ported body, while the largest of the three is the V62, with a flow rate of 2,600l/min for a 3/8" ported body.

With a long cycle life of 50 million operations, the V60 Series has many new innovative attributes, as well as all the standard features that Norgren customers have learned to expect, such as 3/2, 5/2 & 5/3 valve functions and a wide range of voltage options. One of these new innovations is that the fixed length 2-and 3-station manifolds can be used in any combination to produce the correct size of manifold required, eliminating the need for blanking plates.

The flexibility of the V60 Series offers two 3/2 valves in one body. Although available widely among modular manifolds, the V60 Series is the first to offer this feature in an inline valve. In addition, double solenoid versions are available, with a single four-pin double coil mounted on one side of the valve, instead of the traditional method of two single coils mounted individually. Because the double coil requires just one connector instead of the usual two, wiring is simplified, space is saved and customer costs are reduced.

For example, a typical application would be one where a customer requires ten 3/2 valves. A competing product would require ten valves and ten connectors, whereas if Norgren's V60 Series was used, the customer would need just five 2-3/2 valves with five connectors, saving installation time, space and most importantly, money.

Appealing to OEMs, distributors and end users, the V60 Series has a clean, sleek, modern and robust design, so will not detract from the appearance of their machinery. USA (NPT) and European (BSP) versions are both available, whilst extruded aluminum bar stock bodies provide the assurance of a well-built, high performance product.
