Norgren P64F-2GC-PFN Valves & Flow Control - IP65
Part Number: P64F-2GC-PFN
Quick Summary
Norgren P64F-2GC-PFN is a soft-start dump valve for compressed air systems, enabling controlled startup. Without reliable startup control, machines suffer pressure spikes, increased wear, and downtime. It is designed to support CE compliance with the Machinery Directive, helps PUWER compliance, and carries an IP65 rating for rugged industrial environments. The valve delivers high forward flow and a controlled pressure ramp during startup, reducing peak loads on downstream cylinders. Engineers appreciate the compact footprint, robust zinc-alloy body, and nitrile elastomer seals that stand up to shop-floor conditions. These features support efficient automation and compliance while simplifying integration with existing plant air circuits and broader pneumatic systems.

Feature: Soft-start dump valve function provides a controlled ramp of downstream pressure. Business Impact: Reduces peak loads, minimizes wear on actuators and piping, and lowers risk of sudden startup faults. Application: Start-up sequences for pneumatic cylinders, presses, and conveyors in industrial automation lines. Feature: Solenoid pilot with spring return offers reliable actuation with a fail-safe default position. Business Impact: Improves safety and simplifies control logic by ensuring a safe state when power is removed. Application: Remote actuation in automated lines where power losses must not cause uncontrolled motion. Feature: 3/2 valve operation and high-flow capability (57 dm3/sec) enables rapid venting and accurate control of downstream circuits. Business Impact: Shorter cycle times, better responsiveness, and compatible with high-demand tooling. Application: Start-up and dump operations in compact manifolds or integrated panels. Feature: G1/4 port size with Rc1/8 gauge port enables straightforward integration with standard fittings and monitoring tools. Business Impact: Reduces installation time and risk of leaks; simplifies diagnostics with visible pressure measurement. Application: New installations and retrofit projects across machine stations. Feature: IP65 rating with sealed plug provides robust protection against dust and water ingress. Business Impact: Lower maintenance, longer service life, and reliable operation in harsh factory floors. Application: Outdoor and semi-enclosed environments, line benches, and manufacturing cells. Feature: Zinc alloy body and nitrile elastomer seals deliver durability and chemical resistance. Business Impact: Extends service life in demanding environments, reducing replacement costs. Application: Industrial automation and pneumatic systems with exposure to lubricants and coolants.

FAQs
Install the valve using standard G1/4 pipe fittings and connect the Rc1/8 gauge port for monitoring. Wire the 22mm coil connectors (M/P24121/1 or M/P24121/2) for control, ensuring the solenoid pilot is energized with the appropriate supply. Use the optional wall bracket MB004B or other mounting accessories if space is constrained. Confirm IP65 sealing with a sealed plug for dust and water protection.
The valve operates with a solenoid pilot and spring return, in compressed air (medium). Typical operating pressure is 3 to 10 bar (43 to 145 psi). Port size is G1/4 with a gauge port Rc1/8. Flow capacity is 57 dm3/s (121 scfm). Overall weight is 2.07 kg, and the unit is built with a zinc alloy body and nitrile elastomer seals for durability.
Yes. The design supports compliance with the European Machinery Directive (CE) and PUWER considerations, and it carries IP65 protection when used with a sealed plug. This makes it suitable for industrial automation environments where dust, moisture, and washdown are considerations, while maintaining safe startup behavior.
Ideal for start-up control in pneumatic circuits, including conveyors, presses, and automated handling systems. The 3/2 operation with high flow allows rapid venting and controlled pressure ramping, improving cycle reliability and reducing mechanical stress on downstream cylinders. Compatibility with Olympian Plus accessories enhances integration in complex automation cells.
Consider accessories such as T64T-2GB-P1N or T64T-3GB-P1N for plug-in shut-off valve integration, T40B1800 silencers for quieter operation, MB004B wall mounting bracket for fixed installations, and M/P24121/1 or M/P24121/2 spare 22 mm electrical coil connectors for service. These parts streamline mounting, routing, and maintenance in busy production lines.
