Norgren P64F-6GC-PBA Valves & Flow Control - CE-compliant
Part Number: P64F-6GC-PBA
Quick Summary
P64F-6GC-PBA provides an Olympian Plus soft start dump valve for controlled start-up in pneumatic machinery. This solution helps prevent pressure spikes that can damage actuators, shorten tool life, or trigger unplanned downtime during line start. Designed to support CE marking under the European Machinery Directive and PUWER compliance, it combines robust metal construction with reliable actuation. The valve supports high flow during start-up while gently ramping pressure, enabling safer, more efficient automation. Installation is straightforward in standard 3/2 valve circuits and pairs with common accessories for scalable integration.

FAQs
Install the P64F-6GC-PBA in-line with the controlled actuator circuit, connecting the G3/4 port to the supply and the exhaust to the downstream side. Wire the solenoid pilot to the control system with a proper flyback diode and configure the spring return for safe fail-safe operation. Ensure Rc1/8 gauge monitoring is available if pressure feedback is required. Use the 74504-50 wall bracket or Yoke assemblies for mounting flexibility.
Operating pressure of 3–10 bar supports a high forward flow of 57 dm3/s while delivering a controlled pressure ramp on startup. This reduces downstream surges, mitigates shock loads, and shortens cycle times without sacrificing safety. The 3/2 valve operation ensures reliable actuation, while the Rc1/8 gauge port enables monitoring and tuning in tighter installations.
Yes. The valve’s compact Olympian Plus design, high flow capability, and robust zinc alloy body suit packaging and material handling lines where startup transients can impact product placement accuracy or conveyor tension. Its compatibility with common Norgren accessories supports retrofit projects and scalable automation, enabling smoother starts on multiple stations without reengineering your control logic.
The P64F-6GC-PBA is CE-marked under the European Machinery Directive and supports PUWER compliance, aiding safe integration into compliant production lines. While it does not list SIL or IP ratings in the available data, its construction and actuation are designed to meet typical industry safety and performance expectations for automated pneumatic systems.
The valve’s durable zinc alloy body and nitrile elastomer seals resist wear in harsh environments, reducing maintenance cycles. The soft-start feature lowers peak mechanical loads, extending actuator life and reducing downtime. Quick-fit mounting options and plug-in accessories streamline installation and future expansions, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership in mid-to-high throughput lines.
