1.1 The CPA−SC valve terminal
Festo assists you in solving your automation task at the ma
chine level with the CPA−SC series of valve terminals. The va
riey of variants in this series enables you to optimally incor
porate the CPA−SC in your machine or system.
Due to their compact design, the CPA−SC valve terminals can
be fitted close to the actuators to be controlled. This enables
short compressed air tubing to be used. System losses will
therefore be minimized and the times required for pressuriz
ing and exhausting the compressed air tubing will be redu
ced. This is made possible by the use of very compact valves
with sufficient flow, thereby helping to reduce costs.
