Norgren P64F-4GC-PBA Soft Start Dump Valve - G1/2 Port, 3-10 bar
Part Number: P64F-4GC-PBA
Quick Summary
The Norgren P64F-4GC-PBA soft start dump valve provides controlled pressure ramping for pneumatic systems. Start-up shocks cause wear, downtime, and regulatory challenges in automated lines, raising costs and reducing throughput. CE compliance under the European Machinery Directive and PUWER alignment help engineers meet regulatory requirements. This valve delivers a high forward flow and reliable actuation while withstanding demanding industrial environments. Designed for easy integration with standard G1/2 piping and adapters, it speeds commissioning and reduces installation risk. In mature automation environments, this solution supports efficient, compliant flow control across packaging, machine tools, and assembly lines.

Spare Coils
Olympian Plus architecture delivers a robust platform for pneumatic control, enabling smoother startup and reduced surge-related wear in automated lines. This translates to higher uptime and longer equipment life, particularly in packaging, tooling, and assembly cells. The 3/2 valve configuration with solenoid pilot and spring return simplifies remote operation and provides a reliable failsafe, reducing the risk of undesired actuation during power fluctuations and shutdowns in CNC and robotics applications. With a flow capacity of 57 dm3/s (121 scfm), downstream pressurization occurs rapidly, cutting cycle times in high-throughput manufacturing while maintaining gentle pressure ramping to protect delicate tooling and workpieces. Zinc alloy body and nitrile elastomer seals offer durable performance in harsh industrial environments, minimizing maintenance frequency and cost. The Rc1/8 gauge port and standard G1/2 port facilitate straightforward diagnostics and integration with existing air lines, manifolds, and manifolds adapters. Mounting options such as wall brackets (74504-50) and yoke assemblies (Y64A-4GA-N1N/N2N) simplify installation in compact control panels or sub-racks. Optional accessories, including the Quietaire MB004B silencer and QM/48/19J/21 spare coils, support extended service life and quick field replacement, reducing total cost of ownership while preserving system reliability.

FAQs
The P64F-4GC-PBA uses a G1/2 port and supports standard compressed air piping, simplifying field installation. For retrofit projects, verify available mounting space and use compatible adapters. Mounting accessories, such as the Wall Bracket 74504-50 and Yoke assemblies (Y64A-4GA-N1N/N2N), help secure the valve in compact panels and on machines with limited footprint.
Key specs include a working pressure range of 3 to 10 bar (43 to 145 psi), a flow capacity of 57 dm3/s (121 scfm), and an operating temperature range of -20 to 50 °C (-4 to 149 °F). This combination supports rapid yet controlled startup in demanding automation environments.
Yes. The valve is designed to assist machine builders in complying with the European Machinery Directive and PUWER, helping you meet regulatory requirements during new installations or retrofits while maintaining reliable pneumatic control.
Ideal for packaging lines, automated assembly, and machine tools where controlled startup is essential. Its high-flow capability, robust build, and compatibility with standard interfaces make it suitable for diverse sectors including food and beverage packaging, automotive, and plastics processing.
Keep spare coils on hand (QM/48/19J/21) for quick electrical replacements, and inspect nitrile seals for wear in oily or harsh environments. Consider the MB004B silencer for noise reduction and ensure periodic cleaning of ports and fittings to preserve performance. Use the provided mounting options to facilitate rapid field servicing.
