"Feature → Business Impact → Application": All-digital control electronics enables precise, repeatable pressure regulation, reducing drift over time and enabling tighter tolerances in high-precision assembly and pick-and-place tasks. This translates to fewer reworks, improved yield, and lower process variation across multiple shifts. Suitable for compact automation cells and packaging lines where compact form factor and accuracy matter. Variable pressure control with external pressure control on request supports flexible process recipes and centralized regulation, enabling one valve to serve multiple tooling pressures in single- or multi-stage operations, reducing hardware counts and maintenance. Optional serial interfacing with VP-Tool program streamlines parameterization and validation, shortening setup time for line changeovers and enabling quick recipe changes without extensive reconfiguration. Fieldbus actuation compatibility reduces wiring complexity and improves fault isolation, accelerating troubleshooting and system upgrades in modern factories. IP65-certified housing and CE conformity ensure safe operation in harsh environments, decreasing the risk of contamination and non-compliance penalties. Nitrile rubber seals provide chemical resistance and long service life in typical compressed-air systems, boosting reliability in continuous-duty lines. The VP23 range compatibility ensures future scalability for expanding toolkits and process requirements, protecting your capital investment while enabling incremental upgrades. Together, these features support easier installation, better predictive maintenance, and lower total cost of ownership over the valve’s life cycle.

FAQs
Start with proper mounting on a stable panel, ensure clean, dry air, and connect the control signal to 0–10 V sources as specified. Take advantage of IP65-rated housing for harsh environments, and consider optional fieldbus actuation or VP-Tool interfacing to simplify wiring and parameterization during commissioning. Verify seals are intact and avoid fuente contaminants from compromising seals.
Key specs include medium: compressed air; operating temperature -5 to 50 °C; operating pressure 7–17 bar; control signal 0–10 V; seals made from nitrile rubber; IP65 rating; range VP23; and option for external pressure control and serial VP-Tool interfacing. These enable precise, stable regulation across typical automation applications.
Yes. The valve is IP65-rated for dust and water ingress protection and CE-certified for regulatory compliance, making it appropriate for enclosed or wash-down environments. Its nitrile seals and robust housing support reliable operation in challenging conditions, reducing maintenance and downtime in production lines.
The VP2316BD761MB201 carries CE conformity and IP65 ingress protection, aligning with common global manufacturing and safety standards. While SIL ratings are not listed for this model, its protective enclosure and certified components support dependable performance in safety-conscious facilities, especially where dust, moisture, and splash exposure are concerns.
