New base plate enables valve sizes to be mixed on one island, further increasing flexibility.
ASCO have added a new valve size to their Valve Islands range which gives users greater flexibility across a variety of applications and industries. The ASCO Numatics valve islands boast a wide capacity range of 400 l/min to 3820 l/min. The new 502 Series valve means that the range can now handle new mid-range flow requirements of up to 650 l/min. New base plates also mean it is possible to combine two sizes of valve on one island, enabling users to easily manage both valve actuator control and pneumatics.
At 18mm in size, the 502 Series valve is easy to integrate into existing systems and comes fully assembled in a valve island. When coupled with the innovative G3 or 580 series electronics the valve islands boast one of the smallest footprints vs flow rates on the market.
The full valve island offering is adaptable to a wide range of applications, from those in the automotive industry to packaging process lines, thanks to a wide range of accessories that makes them ideal for complex configuration requirements.
This sometimes complex configuration is kept easy using ASCO’s on-line configurator, which makes it possible for the full system with accessories to be defined. This enables users to reduce any manual assembly or configuration on site and get their process up and running as quickly as possible, reducing both downtime and engineering time spent on configuration and maintenance.
As with all ASCO products, the 502 Series has been built to last. It has an IP65 protection level, a modular build, and is robust and reliable in operation. On the occasion that maintenance is required, feedback and diagnosis is made quick and easy thanks to the integrated graphic display located on the electronics module.
