Product Description
The Festo VK-R-M5 is a pneumatic amplifier module designed for use with pneumatic sensors, featuring two-stage amplification to convert low-pressure control signals into a higher-pressure switching output . This piloted seat valve functions as a 3/2-way normally closed element, producing an output at port A whenever a control signal is present at input X .
Key Features & Advantages:
Two-Stage Pneumatic Amplification: Converts weak low-pressure signals (as low as 0.001 bar) into a robust 1-7 bar switching output, enabling reliable operation with sensitive pneumatic sensors and contactless sensing devices .
3/2 Normally Closed Valve Function: Monostable design with mechanical spring return ensures safe default closed position when no control signal is present, providing failsafe operation for pneumatic control circuits.
Wide Operating Pressure Range: Operates with control pressures from 0.001 to 0.25 bar at X/Y ports and signal pressures from 1 to 7 bar at PH port, with supply pressure from 0.1 to 0.25 bar at PN port .
High Flow Rate in Compact Package: Delivers 80 L/min standard nominal flow rate at M5 port A, providing sufficient output for actuating larger pneumatic valves or small cylinders .
Multiple Pneumatic Connections: Features M5 threaded ports for signal output (A) and pilot supply (PH), plus barbed fitting connections for 4 mm tubing at low-pressure ports (PN, X, Y) .
