The valve terminals are fully
assembled according to your order
specifications and are individually
tested. This reduces the assembly and
installation time to a minimum.

Valve terminals type 32 MPA
Key features
Individual connection
Valves can also be used on individual
sub-bases for actuators further away
from the valve terminal.
The electrical connection is estab-
lished using a standard 4-pin M8 plug
(EN 60947-5-2).
Multi-pin plug connection
The signal flow from the controller to
the valve terminal takes place via a
pre-assembled or self-assembled
multi-wire cable to the multi-pin plug
connection, which substantially
reduces installation time.
The valve terminal can be equipped
with max. 24 solenoid coils. This
correspondsto4to24MPA1or2to
24 MPA2 valves, or a combination of
both.
Versions
•Sub-D connection
•Pre-assembled multi-pin cable
•Multi-pin cable for self-assembly
AS-interface connection
A special feature of the AS-interface is
its ability to simultaneously transmit
data and supply power via a two-wire
cable. The encoded cable profile
prevents connection with incorrect
polarity.
The valve terminal with AS-interface is
available in the following versions:
•With two to eight modular valve
positions (max. 8 solenoid coils).
This corresponds to 2 to 8 MPA1 or
2to8MPA2valves,ora
combination of both.
•With all available valve functions.
The connection technology used for
the inputs can be selected as with
CPX:M8,M12,Harax,Sub-D,
Cage Clamp® (terminals to IP20).

CPI installation system
Valve terminal for CPI installation
system:
Valve terminals with CP connection
are intended for connection to higher-
order fieldbus nodes or to control
blocks. A fieldbus node or control
block also enables the connection of
decentralised input/output units. The
following fieldbus protocols are
supported:
•Festo fieldbus, ABB CS31,
Moeller Suconet K
•Interbus
•Allen Bradley (1771 RIO)
•DeviceNet
•Profibus DP
•Profinet IO
•CC- Link
•Modbus/TCP
•Ethernet
•EtherCAT
Four strings with up to 32 inputs and
outputs can be connected to a field-
bus node or control block. The con-
necting cables transmit the power
supply for the input modules and the
load voltage for the valves as well as
control signals.

Valve terminals type 32 MPA
Key features
Fieldbus connection via the CPX system
An integrated fieldbus node manages
communication with a higher-order
PLC. This enables a space-saving
pneumatic and electronic solution.
Valve terminals with fieldbus inter-
faces can be configured with up to
16 manifold blocks. In conjunction
with MPA1 and 8 solenoid coils per
manifold block, up to 128 solenoid
coils can thus be actuated. An MPA2
with 4 solenoid coils per manifold
block can actuate 64 solenoid coils.

Control block connection via the CPX system
Controllers integrated in the Festo
valve terminals enable the construc-
tion of stand-alone control units to
IP65, without control cabinets.
Using the slave operation mode, these
valve terminals can be used for intelli-
gent pre-processing and are therefore
ideal modules for designing decentra-
lised intelligence.
In the master operation mode,
terminal groups can be designed with
many options and functions which
can autonomously control a medium-
sized machine/system.

Valve terminals type 32 MPA
Peripherals overview
Modular pneumatic components
The modular design of the MPA
facilitates maximum flexibility right
from the planning stage and offers
maximum ease of service in
operation.
The system consists of manifold
blocks and valves.
The manifold blocks are screwed
together and thus form the support
system for the valves.
They contain the connection ducts for
supplying compressed air to and vent-
ing from the valve terminal as well as
the working lines for the pneumatic
drives for each valve.
Each manifold block is connected to
the next using three screws.
Individual terminal sections can be
isolated and further manifold blocks
inserted by loosening these screws.
This ensures that the valve terminal
can be rapidly and reliably extended.
Modular electrical peripherals
Themannerinwhichthevalvesare
actuated differs according to whether
youareusingamulti-pinterminal,
fieldbus terminal or individual valve.
The MPA with CPX interface is based
on the internal bus system of the CPX
andusesthisserialcommunication
system for all solenoid coils and a
range of electrical input and output
functions.
Serial linking facilitates the following:
•Transmission of switching
information
•High valve density
•Compact design
•Position-based diagnostics
•Separate voltage supply for valves
•Flexible conversion without address
shifting
•Transmission of status, parameter
and diagnostic data

Valve terminals type 32 MPA
Key features – Pneumatic components
Sub-base valve
MPA offers a comprehensive range of
valve functions. All valves are
equippedwithpistonspoolandpat-
ented sealing system which facilitates
efficient sealing, a broad pressure
range and long service life. To in-
crease power they have a pneumatic
pilot control supplied by pilot air.
Sub-base valves can be quickly
replaced since the tubing connectors
remain on the manifold block.
This design is also particularly flat.
Irrespective of the valve function there
are sub-base valves with one solenoid
coil (single solenoid) or with two
solenoid coils (double solenoid or two
single solenoid valves in one
housing).
Constructional design
Valve replacement Extension
The valves are attached to the metal
manifold block using two screws,
which means that they can be easily
replaced. The mechanical sturdiness
of the manifold block guarantees
excellent long-term sealing.
Blanking plates can be replaced by
valves at a later date. The dimensions,
mounting points and existing pneu-
matic installations remain unchanged
during this process.
Thevalvecode(M,J,N,NS, K,KS,H,
HS,B,G,E,X,W,D,DSI)islocatedon
the front of the valve beneath the
manual override.

If both coils are energised at the same time, the valve remains in the previously assumed switching position.
-H- Note
A filter must be placed upstream of valves in vacuum mode. This
prevents the ingress of foreign matter in the intake air into the valve
(e.g. when operating a suction cup).
