Norgren 5VS-403-800 Rotowink Indicator - Wide-Angle Visibility
Part Number: 5VS-403-800
Quick Summary
The Norgren 5VS-403-800 Rotowink Indicator signals pneumatic presence for valve-position indication on automated lines. In busy panels, subtle misreadings slow changes and trigger unnecessary maintenance. Certification details are not listed in this data; check the datasheet for CE marking, IP ratings and SIL options. This indicator improves visibility, reduces downtime, and supports reliable pneumatic signaling in automation. Its wide-angle visibility and contrasting color options help operators quickly verify signal status from any viewpoint. When paired with standard G1/8 ports and a compact body, it integrates smoothly into existing manifolds, minimizing retrofits.

Color-contrast indicators provide immediate recognition of signal status, minimizing operator error and rework on lines and packaging machines. In practice, quick glance checks translate to shorter changeovers and smoother startup sequences. The Rotowink design offers wide-angle visibility, allowing personnel to verify status from multiple angles, even in cramped control bays. This reduces troubleshooting time and supports better line throughput in high-demand environments. The range of colors and contrasting combinations enables positive identification in multi-signal systems, preventing cross-signal errors and speeding operator response during changeovers. The body is molded in PBT with synthetic rubber elastomers, delivering durability and chemical resistance for compressed-air systems, which lowers replacement costs and downtime. A G1/8 port size ensures compatibility with standard manifolds, enabling fast retrofits and straightforward installation. Operating conditions of 2 to 66 °C and 0.7 to 8.6 bar enable reliable signaling across typical industrial environments, while a maximum inlet pressure of 8.6 bar provides a safety margin in fluctuating systems. The compact Rotowink configuration minimizes space impact on control panels and can be integrated without redesigning existing plumbing.

FAQs
The 5VS-403-800 uses a G1/8 threaded port, which aligns with standard pneumatic manifolds found in most automation plants. Installation is straightforward with common thread sealing practices; its compact form minimizes panel intrusion. For retrofits, verify thread compatibility and ensure sufficient clearance for clear visibility of the indicator from operator workstations.
Key performance specs include operating temperature from 2 to 66 °C, operating pressure range of 0.7 to 8.6 bar, and maximum inlet pressure of 8.6 bar. Materials—body made of PBT and synthetic rubber elastomers—support durability in compressed-air environments. These factors collectively ensure consistent color contrast, legibility and long-term signal integrity in typical industrial settings.
Yes, the Rotowink indicator is designed for robust pneumatic signaling in automated environments. The PBT body and elastomer seals provide resistance to typical workshop vibrations and pneumatic transient conditions. However, for extreme high-speed conveyor applications, validate mounting orientation and clear line-of-sight to ensure signal readability during rapid cycles.
By delivering immediate visual confirmation of signal status, the Rotowink reduces setup time, changeover errors, and operator retries, contributing to shorter downtime and higher throughput. Durable materials extend service life, lowering replacement costs, while easy retrofit with standard G1/8 connections minimizes installation time and labor costs.
