With Detection of
Main Valve Position
The detecting function of the main valve position detects a
mismatch between the input signal and valve operation.
Redundant system can be
constructed easily.
Redundant System
A system in which even if one part fails, the whole system
will fulfill its required function. This is usually achieved by
having dual channels of operation, such as dual valves, dual
wiring, dual guard switches etc.

Output Pressure (P2) vs Time Graph
The detecting function of the main valve position detects a
mismatch between the input signal and valve operation.
Category 2 Safety function can be accomplished by single channel and is automatically
checked.
Category 3 It has redundancy so there is no loss of safety function with a single failure.
The safety function must be checked before each use. An accumulation of
undetected faults can cause loss of safety function.
Category 4
It has redundancy so there is no loss of safety function with a single failure. The
safety function must be checked before each use. An accumulation of undetected
faults does not affect the safety function. (Higher DC and MTTFd than Category 3.)

쐌
A function to gradually increase the initial pressure
of the pneumatic system has been added to the dual
residual pressure release valve.
쐌
Fixed orifice and variable throttle are available as a throttle
for adjusting the pressure increase. (Ø 1, Ø 1.5,
Ø 2)
Conduit (VP series only) and
M12 connector (4 pin) types
are available.
M12 connector with 6 pins is
available.
qThe main valve position is detected by transferring the
main valve movement directly to the reed safety limit switch
with the rod.
wLong service life: B10d: 10 million times∗
eThe return spring releases the residual pressure securely
regardless of pressure level.

Caution
Valve may not operate properly when air sup-
ply to P port is not adequate and the supply
pressure to the valve is lower than 0.25 MPa,
the minimum operating pressure. Be careful
with insufficient supply pressure.
Piping for External Pilot Type
Caution
The product may not operate when the external pilot
pressure is insufficient due to simultaneous opera-
tion or restricted air piping. In this case, use the
check valve (AKH series) with the external pilot port,
change the piping size or adjust the set pressure to
provide a constant pressure of 0.25 MPa or more.
