Tab. 5 Types of Pilot Air Supply
Functional Failure or Malfunctions Due to Faulty Pilot Air Supply
• Supply each pressure zone with working pressure and pilot pressure. Do not form pressure-free
zones è 5.1.1.4 Creation of Pressure Zones.
• Use only one supply component for the pilot air supply in each pressure zone.
• Required pilot pressure at port (12/14) è 13.3 Technical Data, Pneumatic.
5.1.1.3 Pilot exhaust air
– Unducted pilot exhaust air: the pilot exhaust air is exhausted directly at each valve. If a soft start
valve or pilot air valve is used, the pilot exhaust air can only be exhausted in an unducted manner.
– Ducted pilot exhaust air: the pilot exhaust air is exhausted at the port(12) on the right end plate.
Convert to ducted pilot exhaust air è 11.2.3 Convert to ducted pilot exhaust air.
5.1.1.4 Creation of Pressure Zones
In order to supply valves with different pressures, pressure zones for the working air and the pilot air
can be formed within the valve terminal. The pressure zones are limited by separating seals between
the manifold sub-bases è 5.2.1.12 Separating seals for pressure zone formation.
Each pressure zone must be supplied with compressed air via a supplying component è Fig.2. Pres-
sure-free zones must not be created.
Several pressure zones are required within the valve terminal to operate vacuum or low-pressure-com-
patible valves with other valves.

Use of Soft Start Valves
In a pressure zone, a soft start valve must not be combined with another supplying component for
duct(1).
When using several soft start valves, observe the electrical regulations for creating voltage zones
è 5.1.2.1 Formation of Voltage Zones.
Use of Pilot Air Valves
In a pressure zone, a pilot air valve must not be combined with another supplying component for
duct(14).

5.1.2 Electrical Functions
5.1.2.1 Formation of Voltage Zones
With the CPX terminal and the pneumatic interfaces, voltage zones can be formed in the pneumatic
part of the valve terminal.
Product overview
14 Festo — VTSA-F-CB — 2020-01

The 24 V power supply to the valves is provided via the load voltage supply valves of the CPX terminal
(Uval).
The power for the pressure switches and the vacuum generators is supplied by the electronic power
supply (UEL/SEN). After switching off the load voltage supply, the pressure switches continue to be sup-
plied with voltage for the valves of the CPX terminal (Uval).
Further information on the power supply of the CPX terminal èDescription of the CPX system (CPX-
SYS-...).
Depending on the pneumatic interface variant, up to 3 safe voltage zones can be formed in the pneu-
matic part of the valve terminal. The voltage zones can be switched off independently of each other
and in an electrically safe manner. A total of up to 24 addresses can be controlled via the pneumatic
interface.
