FAQs
Yes. The VS1872004-AFF0 is designed for seamless integration with the VS18 valve island family and supports either multipole or integrated fieldbus configurations. Its 24 VDC PNP/NPN logic and G1/8 ports ensure straightforward, drop-in expansion without major reconfiguration, helping projects stay on schedule and within budget.
The kit provides a flow of 650 liters per minute with G1/8 ports, suitable for typical island valve manifolds in compact automation cells. This balance of flow and port size helps minimize pressure drop while maintaining reliable actuation during high-speed cycles in packaging and assembly lines.
Industries including automotive, packaging, and general manufacturing gain the most from this kit due to its modularity, IP65 protection, and fieldbus flexibility. Applications such as automated benches, washdown environments, and hazardous-area installations can leverage UL/ATEX compatibility and ISO 15407-2 conformity for safer, scalable operations.
The kit features IP65 protection and ISO 15407-2 standards, plus UL and ATEX compatibility for hazardous environments. These certifications help streamline regulatory approvals, lower risk during audits, and enable safer operation in washdown or potentially explosive atmospheres when integrated with compliant control systems.
Maintenance benefits from a modular, field-expandable design that reduces wiring complexity and installation time. The durable diecast aluminium body with HNBR seals resists wear in challenging environments, lowering downtime. Overall, faster deployments, easier retrofits, and compatible fieldbus options translate to shorter payback periods and lower total cost of ownership.
