Product Description
The Festo VPCF is a 3 way proportional flow control valve that sets new standards with its short response times, high repetition accuracy, compact size, PWIS free design, and ATEX 3GD certification . Featuring a linear characteristic curve for easy programming and a piston spool with integrated sensors, this highly dynamic valve is ideal for demanding applications such as controlling protective gases in painting systems, air volume and rotational speed control .
Key Features & Advantages:
Linear Characteristic Curve for Easy Programming: The linear characteristic simplifies programming and commissioning, allowing for precise and predictable flow control without complex parameter adjustments .
EU Explosion Protection Directive (ATEX) Certified: Certified for ATEX 3GD (Gas: II 3G, Dust: II 3D) , making it suitable for use in potentially explosive environments (Zone 2/22) in painting systems and other hazardous areas .
Highly Dynamic with Short Response Times: Designed for high dynamic applications, offering extremely short cycle times to increase throughput and reduce operating costs .
Piston Spool with Integrated Sensors: Features a controlled piston spool valve with hard sealing and integrated sensors, providing high repetition accuracy (0.5 %FS) and excellent reliability .
PWIS Free & Compact Design: Free from paint wetting impairment substances (PWIS / LABS), this valve is ideal for painting and coating applications. Its compact size and flexible mounting options allow installation in tight spaces or retrofits into existing systems .
