160 MP - Electro-pneumatic valve assemblies
- The ever-increasing demand for compact and flexible pneumatic components has led to the development of the Aircomp MP 160 series of solenoid valves. The MP 160 can be considered as a true integrated control system. In addition to its ease of installation and its high performance, we wanted a strong aesthetics and emphasized the "design" in the design phase. The creation of this range of solenoid valve islands, which combines high performance with a strong aesthetic character, has been made possible by the use of technopolymer in the realization of all the main components. The wide availability of modules in various possible configurations, allows to answer in an optimal way to every type of need, while the integration of the electrical connections of the solenoid valves drastically reduces the wiring time of the battery. The possibility of assembling up to 16 bistable solenoid valves allows maximum rationalization in the pneumatic implementation of any system. Finally, even the final installation of the complete battery confirms the great flexibility of this product. You can choose between two mounting systems, by means of DIN bar or with feet.
The MP 160 series batteries have been designed to guarantee maximum reliability over time. In order to ensure a pneumatic hold on all the stressed elements, we have adopted a traditional "tie rod" type assembly system. To guarantee the transmission of the electrical signal, even in the presence of vibration, we have chosen to use a single rigid electronic board. The solenoid valve controllers can be easily checked even when the battery is installed, by simply removing the upper casing made of a single integrated module.
All configuration and control operations are possible from outside the installed battery. The manual controls of each solenoid valve and their LED for visual control are cleverly positioned on the upper part of the cover. All pneumatic connections are equipped with built-in push-in fittings and are positioned to facilitate the assembly of the tubes. The electrical connection of the system consists of a 25 or 44 pin SUB-D connector, depending on the dimensions of the battery.
This distribution island can be considered as a real motion control system, thanks to the possibility offered by the wide range of specific modules
to quickly meet all requirements. The large number of stations for a single module (up to 16 bistables), allows to rationalize the pneumatic layout of each application.
A simple and safe multipolar connection system avoids tedious electrical wiring on the module, limiting installation time to a minimum. The electronic part is located in the upper cover (IP65) which can be removed with great ease. The visual control of the status of the valves can be done directly, thanks to the visible leds on the upper part, positioned next to the manual controls. There are various mounting options; the module can be fixed to a panel using special feet, or mounted on a DIN rail using a simple kit.➜ Technical data
