FAQs
The VP1004BJ400A00 uses standard G1/4 ports; install with appropriate sealing thread compounds or O-rings, tighten fittings to the recommended torque, and mount in a protected location to preserve IP65 integrity. Wire the 4–20 mA signal to your controller and verify signal integrity. Ensure correct orientation to avoid flow restrictions and perform a leak test after assembly.
The valve provides proportional control across 0.2 to 4 bar with a maximum flow of 300 L/m. Expect stable pressure regulation with varying load conditions and fast actuation when commanded by the 4–20 mA input. For best results, supply clean, dry air and calibrate against your PLC or control system.
Yes. IP65 protection guards against dust and water ingress, making it suitable for washdown areas and exposed outdoor installations when mounted properly. To maximize longevity, position the valve away from direct spray, use appropriate cable glands, and maintain seals per Norgren guidelines.
This model is part of the VP10 family and uses standard G1/4 ports with a 4–20 mA control interface, enabling plug-and-play replacement across VP10 devices. This reduces spare parts variety, simplifies procurement, and accelerates commissioning on existing lines, delivering lower total cost of ownership for multi-point installations.
