Description

Festo Sub-base APL-2N/3H-M5 7536, Corrosion resistance classification CRC=2 – Moderate corrosion stress.

Valves and valve terminals
Valves are pneumatic components that are used in automation technology to control actuators such as cylinders, rodless cylinders, motors or grippers. When it comes to the valves themselves, a distinction is made between pneumatically actuated valves, electric valves and manually actuated valves, which are available from Festo in many different designs and versions. In addition, we also offer valves for use with valve terminals, depending on the system requirements.

Valves in pneumatics
Pneumatics are used in industrial automation to transmit movement or force and this is usually done with the help of compressed air. The movement itself is carried out by actuators; these are in turn controlled by valves or valve terminals in automation technology.

Electric and pneumatic valves for every application area
Festo valves can be used across the board or configured individually, depending on the application. In addition to directional control valves, shut-off valves, flow or pressure regulators, our product portfolio also includes piezo valves – proportional pressure regulators that are characterised by their long service life and minimal energy requirements.

Electrically and pneumatically actuated directional control valves
A directional control valve is used to change, open or block the flow of compressed air in a pneumatic system.
