Norgren VP2316BDLL1MB200 Proportional Control Valve - IO-Link

The VP2316BDLL1MB200 uses a micro-processor controlled closed-loop controller to deliver repeatable pressure setpoints, reducing process variability and wear on pneumatic actuators. This feature translates into energy efficiency and lower operating costs on high-cycle lines, while enabling precise actuation in robotics, packaging, and CNC applications. IO-Link control provides seamless integration with IO-Link masters and I/O modules, simplifying field diagnostics, remote configuration, and predictive maintenance. Compatibility with VP23 IO-Link ecosystem, including NC-ME-4A4B-12DLA master with EtherNet/IP interface and NC-HB-8A5F-12A0A standard IO-Link I/O modules, allows faster commissioning and scalable architecture across facilities. The USB interface supports VP-Tool software for tuning and offline parameterization, accelerating startup and changeovers. The ND8 port size and aluminum body balance ruggedness with compact form, supporting retrofits and panel-mparing installations. The broad operating range of 0 to 16 bar covers most factory pneumatic needs, while the compact dimensions (113.3 mm height, 136 mm length, 55 mm width) and 1.1 kg weight facilitate integration in crowded control panels. Typical applications include pressure regulation for pneumatic cylinders, grippers, and actuated valves in automation lines, where precision and reliability directly impact cycle times and defect rates. The VP23 family also benefits from established support resources, including CAD files, brochures, and software, to help engineers validate configurations and comply with internal standards.
