Norgren 5VS-401-800 Rotowink Indicator - Wide Visibility
Part Number: 5VS-401-800
Quick Summary
Norgren 5VS-401-800 Rotowink indicator quickly reveals the presence or absence of a pneumatic signal in automated systems. Operators face downtime and misreadings when signals aren’t clearly visible, slowing startups and prolonging fault isolation. In the control room and on the shop floor, CE compliance, SIL-friendly safety integration, and IP-rated protection are common considerations for pneumatic indicators, guiding their selection. This compact device delivers high-contrast, wide-angle visibility suitable for panel mounting and valve banks, while remaining lightweight and compact. When paired with 5VS-400 compatible components, it supports faster diagnostics, improved line uptime, and lower operating costs through clearer signal verification.

High-contrast color indicator: The Rotowink shows (Off) Black and (On) Red signals, providing instant recognition of pneumatic states. This translates into reduced error rates and shorter fault isolation times on control panels and actuator banks. The clear binary indication supports operators and maintenance teams in high-volume environments where every second counts. Wide-angle visibility and compact footprint: The indicator remains readable from multiple angles even in crowded panels, improving readability in tight spaces. Its compact enclosure (38 mm high, 38 mm wide, 57 mm long) and light 0.08 kg weight simplify mounting and retrofit within 5VS-400 portfolios for streamlined installations. Operating conditions and durable materials: Designed for compressed air, it operates from 2 to 66 °C and 0.7 to 8.6 bar, with a maximum inlet of 8.6 bar. Built with a PBT body and synthetic rubber elastomers, it withstands typical manufacturing environments. Compatibility and installation efficiency: A G1/8 port and the 5VS-400 range compatibility enable quick retrofits, reducing installation time and ensuring reliable piping connections. Color coding and customization: The standard On Red / Off Black scheme supports fast state recognition; a range of colors is available to suit different plant conventions, aiding operator training and incident reduction.

FAQs
Install the Rotowink indicator by aligning the G1/8 port with the corresponding pneumatic supply fitting, then secure the device to a panel or mounting surface using appropriate hardware. Ensure clean, dry compressed air is supplied within the 0.7 to 8.6 bar range and that the body orientation allows clear visibility of the On (Red) and Off (Black) states. Confirm there are no leaks and that mounting does not obstruct the indicator’s view from normal operator angles.
The 5VS-401-800 Rotowink indicator operates with compressed air in a temperature range of 2 to 66 °C and a pressure range of 0.7 to 8.6 bar (10 to 125 psi). Maximum inlet pressure is 8.6 bar. These ranges align with standard pneumatic control systems in automation lines, ensuring reliable state indication across typical manufacturing environments.
Yes. The Rotowink indicator uses a high-contrast black/off and red/on color scheme designed for fast state recognition from multiple viewing angles. Its compact footprint fits densely packed control panels and valve banks, helping operators quickly verify signals and reducing operator error during setup, changeovers, and routine maintenance.
Certification status for CE marking or SIL compatibility depends on the overall system integration and the specific installation. While pneumatic indicators like Rotowink devices are commonly used in CE-compliant environments and in SIL-enabled safety circuits when used with appropriate control logic, confirm with the supplier and review your plant’s compliance requirements for each installation.
Retrofitting requires matching the G1/8 port with existing fittings and ensuring the 5VS-400 compatibility. Check the physical dimensions (57 mm length, 38 mm height and width) to fit in available panel space and verify the media is clean compressed air within the 2–66 °C and 0.7–8.6 bar range. The lightweight 0.08 kg device minimizes mounting stress and simplifies assembly across multiple stations.
