Feature: Compressed air as the working medium ensures compatibility with standard plant air systems and minimal lubricant requirements. Benefit: predictable, clean performance across varying supply quality, reducing erratic valve behavior at start-up. Application: ideal for OEM machinery and packaging lines where reliable soft-start and dump control are critical. Feature: Broad operating pressure range of 3 to 10 bar enables use across diverse equipment without hardware changes. Benefit: lowers stocking needs and simplifies commissioning. Application: suitable for lift tables, conveyors, and automated assembly lines seeking controlled pressurization. Feature: G3/4 port size and 3/2 valve operation simplify plumbing and control logic in a compact footprint. Benefit: reduces installation time and maintenance complexity during retrofits. Application: retrofit projects in existing lines with space constraints. Feature: Solenoid pilot with spring return provides remote, fail-safe actuation and predictable default state. Benefit: fast, reliable responses to control signals and safe shutdown if power is lost. Application: automated start-up sequences and safety-critical control loops. Feature: High flow rate 57 dm3/sec (121 scfm) supports quick pressure build-down and release. Benefit: faster cycle times and improved throughput in high-demand lines. Application: packaging and handling systems requiring rapid pressurization changes. Feature: Durable zinc alloy body and nitrile elastomer seals deliver robust performance in industrial environments. Benefit: extended service life and resistance to typical hydraulic/oil mist exposure. Application: harsh manufacturing floors with periodic washdown. Feature: IP65 protection with sealed plug enhances protection against dust and water ingress. Benefit: reduces maintenance intervals and downtime in dirty or washdown environments. Application: food & beverage, pharmaceutical, and electronics assembly lines where cleanliness matters. Feature: Accessible mounting and compatibility with accessories such as MB004B silencers and T68 plug-in options. Benefit: quieter operation and flexible integration with existing control systems. Application: new builds and upgrades where space, noise, and configuration variety matter.

FAQs
Retrofitting begins with verifying a G3/4 port footprint on the host manifold, followed by mating the P64F-6GC-PFN's pilot line to the control valve and securing the unit with the appropriate Wall Bracket kit. Use the MB008B silencer for noise reduction and connect the 22mm electrical coil connector (M/P24121/1 or /2) for power control. Ensure IP65 sealing is intact and test the start-up sequence in a controlled cycle.
The valve provides a controlled, soft-start dump that gradually increases downstream pressure, preventing line shock and reducing motor/actuator stress. With a 3/2 configuration and 57 dm3/sec flow, start-up time is stabilized, improving line throughput, reducing wear, and lowering downtime due to pressure-related faults on packaging equipment.
Yes. The unit is IP65 rated with a sealed-plug configuration, offering dust and water ingress protection suitable for washdown environments. This makes it compatible with harsh production floors and facilities requiring frequent cleaning, while maintaining reliable operation of the solenoid-pilot actuation system.
Recommended accessories include MB004B Quietaire heavy-duty silencers, M/P15737 electrical plugs with cable glands, and plug-in shut-off valves such as T68C-6GB-B2N and T68C-BGB-B2N. These parts enhance noise control, provide robust electrical connections, and enable turnkey integration for new installations or upgrades.
The P64F-6GC-PFN supports CE compliance under the Machinery Directive and IP65 protection, aligning with typical European safety and environmental standards. This combination helps ensure safer operation, easier conformity assessment for machinery builds, and compatibility with PUWER-compliant maintenance practices in regulated industries.
