Introduction
Follow these instructions when installing, operating, or servicing
the product.
Application Limits
These products are intended for use in general purpose
compressed air systems only.
General Installation & Operating Instructions
Keep pipe or tubing clean and free of dirt and chips. Pipe joint
compound should be used sparingly and applied only to the male
pipe - never into the female port. Do not use PTFE tape to seal
pipe joints - pieces have a tendency to break off and lodge inside
the unit, possibly causing malfunction.
Application Limits (2-Position)
Operating Pressure:
kPa PSIG bar
Minimum 138 20 1.4
Maximum 1030 145 10.0
Application Limits (3-Position)
Operating Pressure:
kPa PSIG bar
Minimum 207 30 2.1
Maximum 1030 145 10.0
NOTE: Solenoid operated valves specified for external pilot or
double air pilot operated valves may have pressures down
to vacuum in the main valve. External pilot pressure must
be greater than or equal to that in the main valve, but not
exceed the ranges above.
Ambient Temperature Range: -15°C to 49°C (5°F to 120°F)
Voltage Range: Rated Voltage +10, -15%
CAUTION: An interruption of 10 milliseconds or greater to
the power supplied to the solenoid of a solenoid operated
valve may cause the valve to shift. Provision must be made
to prevent power interruption of this duration to avoid
unintended, potentially hazardous, consequences.
Lubrication
Filtered and lubricated air is necessary for maximum valve life and
minimum maintenance. If in-service lubrication is used, lubricate
with a straight paraffin based mineral oil having an ISO viscosity
grade of 32 (e.g. Sunvis 932).
NOTE: Once in-service lubrication is initiated, the practice should
be continued in order to maximize valve life.
Maintenance & Trouble Shooting Hints
Valve Not Shifting Completely When Energized:
1. Check to insure that the proper voltage is supplied to the
solenoids.
2. Check to insure that supply pressure is 138 kPa (20 PSIG) or
greater at the valve’s inlet when shifting valve.
3. Check for possible restrictions in air supply, such as undersized
hoses, fittings, or quick disconnects.
4. Check to insure that the spool moves smoothly.
5. Check spool seals for proper installation, dirt, or damage.
