Norgren VP2316BD761MB200 Proportional Pressure Valve - IP65
Part Number: VP2316BD761MB200
Quick Summary
Norgren VP2316BD761MB200 is a proportional pressure control valve designed for precise air pressure management in automation systems. This solution addresses drift, slow start-up, and inconsistent downstream regulation that can bottleneck production lines. The unit combines all-digital control electronics with an option for external pressure control, ensuring stable performance across demanding environments. It carries CE certification and an IP65 rating, giving you confidence in compliance and ruggedness in dusty or wash-down settings. Optional VP-Tool serial interfacing and fieldbus actuation simplify networked control, reducing integration time and maintenance overhead. In practice, this valve supports higher efficiency, tighter process control, and a lower total cost of ownership for modern manufacturing lines.

FAQs
Installation involves mounting the valve onto standard ND8 pneumatic interfaces and connecting the compressed air supply. Use nitrile-seal compatible fittings and ensure proper seal seating to maintain IP65 integrity. Electrical connections should follow the 0-10 V control scheme, and if you enable external pressure control, configure the downstream feedback path accordingly for accurate closed-loop control.
The valve accepts a 0-10 V control signal for analog proportional regulation. Optional VP-Tool serial interfacing provides a convenient method to configure and monitor valve performance, while fieldbus actuation can integrate the valve into larger automation networks, reducing wiring and simplifying diagnostics.
Yes, the VP2316BD761MB200 is IP65-rated, making it robust against dust ingress and water exposure in harsh environments. Maintenance-wise, rely on standard pneumatic checks, replace nitrile seals as part of routine service, and inspect electrical connections periodically to preserve performance and reliability in multi-shift operations.
The valve is CE-certified, confirming compliance with European safety and performance standards. IP65 provides protection against dust and water, supporting use in challenging environments. These certifications help meet regulatory requirements for many automotive, packaging, and general industrial automation applications.
You can expect reduced energy use due to precise, repeatable pressure control, leading to lower compressor load and waste. The digital electronics improve repeatability and lower process variation, while optional fieldbus interfaces shorten integration time. Overall, these factors contribute to longer mean time between failures and lower total cost of ownership in high-cycle operations.
