Norgren P72F-3GL-PFA Valve - Excelon Soft Start (G3/8)

Feature: Solenoid pilot / Spring return actuation provides a compact, fail-safe control interface that is compatible with common PLCs and relays. Business Impact: Reduces wiring complexity and ensures safe shut-off during power loss, improving overall machine safety. Application: Ideal for automated start-up sequences in robotics and packaging lines where reliable power-off protection is critical. Feature: 3/2 valve operation delivers straightforward control of downstream venting during startup, minimizing pressure spikes. Business Impact: Enhances cycle stability and reduces component wear, cutting maintenance costs by extending seals and cylinder life. Application: Widely used in clamp and ejector circuits that require predictable venting patterns. Feature: High flow capacity of 21 dm3/sec enables rapid release of downstream pressure. Business Impact: Shortens start-up times and improves overall line throughput without overheating solenoids. Application: Suitable for fast-moving actuation in material handling and machine tools. Feature: G3/8 port size ensures compatibility with standard air fittings and manifolds. Business Impact: Lowers installation time and inventory needs by working with widely used piping dimensions. Application: Simple retrofits on existing Excelon 72 Series systems. Feature: Zinc alloy body and synthetic elastomer seals provide robust durability in workshop air and brief exposure to contaminants. Business Impact: Longer service intervals, reduced replacement cost, and predictable performance in factory environments. Application: Best-in-class for heavy-use lines requiring reliable weather and corrosion resistance. Feature: Machinery Directive and PUWER-aligned design supports regulatory compliance without bespoke modifications. Business Impact: Speeds up validation cycles and vendor qualification processes. Application: Critical for OEMs delivering compliant machinery and for maintenance teams working under tight safety regimes.
