Norgren S/514 Quick Exhaust Valves - G1/2 Port

Part Number: S/514
Manufacturer
Norgren
Part number
S/514

Quick Summary

Norgren S/514 Quick Exhaust Valves efficiently vent compressed air from reservoirs and cylinders in automation lines. A common pain point is exhaust lag that slows cylinder speeds and reduces overall line throughput. In practice, engineers consider CE compliance, IP ratings, and SIL safety considerations to ensure safe, reliable installations. With an aluminium body and polyurethane seals, this valve delivers durable exhaust performance while simplifying maintenance and reducing downtime, supporting faster cycles and lower total cost of ownership in modern pneumatic systems.

Feature → Business Impact → Application. The valve uses compressed air as its medium, ensuring stable and predictable exhaust in all standard pneumatic circuits, which translates to consistent cylinder return speeds and improved process timing in automated lines. This directly impacts production throughput and energy efficiency, particularly in high-cycle environments such as packaging and material handling. Feature → Operating range → Application. Operating temperature of -20 to 80 °C and operating pressure of 0.7 to 7 bar provide robust performance across factory floors and outdoor-industrial settings, enabling reliable actuation in diverse environments without extra cooling or enclosure requirements. Feature → Port compatibility → Application. G1/2 port size aligns with common piping systems, simplifying replacement and manifold integration, reducing installation time and risk of leaks. Feature → Flow rate → Application. A high flow of 7683 l/m supports high-speed cylinder actuation and shorter exhaust times, improving cycle efficiency in quick-acting valves and clamp cylinders. Feature → Materials and seals → Application. An aluminium alloy body with polyurethane seals offers corrosion resistance and long service life, minimizing maintenance and replacement costs in harsh manufacturing environments. Feature → Dimensions and weight → Application. Compact 100 mm length, 135 mm width, 47.5 mm height and 0.35 kg weight enable easy integration into dense valve manifolds and compact control cabinets, saving space and enabling modular installations. Feature → Series and brand → Application. Part of the Martonair family by IMI Norgren assures compatibility with legacy Norgren components and standardized maintenance practices across the plant, improving procurement and warranty support. This combination of material choice, geometry, and flow performance supports measurable improvements in cycle times, reliability, and overall equipment effectiveness.

FAQs

The S/514 uses a standard G1/2 port, enabling straightforward replacement in typical pneumatic manifolds. Verify thread compatibility, seal type, and mounting orientation to avoid misalignment and leaks. When retrofitting, check manifold spacing and clearance to maintain optimal exhaust flow and avoid interference with nearby components.
With a flow rate of 7683 l/m, the S/514 enables rapid venting of air from reservoirs and cylinders. This reduces exhaust dwell time, allowing higher cylinder speeds and shorter return strokes, which translates into improved cycle times and greater line throughput in high-speed applications.
Yes. The combination of high exhaust flow, wide operating temperature range (-20 to 80 °C), and robust aluminium body makes the S/514 well-suited for high-speed packaging, palletizing, and automation lines where fast venting and durable operation are critical for consistent throughput and uptime.
The datasheet highlights essential safety and compliance considerations, but specific certifications should be confirmed with the supplier for your application. When selecting components for regulated environments, verify CE marking, IP rating on enclosure, and SIL safety compatibility for the complete control system.
The valve’s PU seals and aluminium body offer corrosion resistance and long life with low maintenance. Routine air quality checks and periodic seal inspection are recommended. The primary ROI drivers are faster cycle times, reduced actuator dwell, and lower replacement frequency due to robust materials, contributing to higher equipment effectiveness and uptime.
