IMI Norgren VP2302BD761MB201 Proportional Valve - IP65
Part Number: VP2302BD761MB201
Quick Summary
VP2302BD761MB201 is a proportional valve for compressed air systems, delivering precise pressure control across automated lines in manufacturing and packaging. Engineers often struggle with tuning instability, drift, and slow response in pneumatic circuits, which drives waste and reduces throughput. This device carries CE conformity, IP65 protection, and nitrile-seal materials to support safe, reliable operation in challenging environments and extended service life. With all-digital control electronics and optional serial interfacing via VP-Tool or fieldbus actuation, it scales from standalone devices to networked automation while reducing commissioning time, spare parts, and maintenance costs. As part of the VP23 range, it aligns with familiar hardware and offers straightforward procurement for predictable performance.

FAQs
When installing VP2302BD761MB201, ensure a clean, dry compressed air supply and proper mounting close to the actuator load to minimize line loss. Use the VP23 family interface where possible to simplify retrofits, and plan for optional fieldbus or VP-Tool serial interfaces to enable smart diagnostics and centralized control.
All-digital control electronics provide tighter feedback, faster update rates, and reduced drift compared with analog controls. This translates to steadier pressure references, quicker settling times after load changes, and improved repeatability across cycles—beneficial for clamping, gripping, and precision actuation.
Yes, the valve carries IP65 protection, suitable for dusty or wet environments. Seals are nitrile rubber, chosen for chemical resistance and compatibility with standard compressed air systems. For harsher chemical exposure or extended washdown, verify seal compatibility with your specific fluids and consider additional protective measures.
The valve offers optional actuation via fieldbus, reducing wiring complexity and enabling centralized control and monitoring. In networked plants, this supports easier commissioning, diagnostics, and integration with existing Profibus, Profinet, or similar ecosystems, delivering lower total cost of ownership over the system lifecycle.
ROI is driven by reduced air consumption through precise pressure control, faster cycle times from improved response, and lower maintenance due to fewer mis-tires from drift. The availability of VP-Tool interfacing and fieldbus options also reduces commissioning time and spares requirements, providing predictable performance and long-term cost savings.
