Q: Can this valve be used to control a single-acting cylinder?
A: Absolutely. As a 3/2 normally closed single-electro-operated valve, it is specifically designed for controlling single-acting cylinders or actuators. When energized, port P (port 1) connects to port A (port 2), pushing the cylinder out; when de-energized, port A (port 2) connects to the exhaust port (port 3), and the cylinder automatically retracts under spring force.
Q: Can it be used in a vacuum system?
A: Yes. The valve has a lower operating pressure limit of -0.9 bar, therefore it can be used as a vacuum breaker valve in vacuum or adsorption systems.
Q: What type of electrical plug and tubing connector does this valve use?
A: Electrically, it uses a two-pin connection. For tubing connections, all ports (ports 1, 2, and 3) are M7 threads, requiring the purchase of appropriate M7 quick-connect fittings or tubing.
