Glandless spool with a special coating reduces wear and leakage, delivering longer service life and lower maintenance. This directly lowers downtime and replacement part costs in high-cycle conveyors and automated assembly lines. Low power solenoids decrease energy consumption and heat in compact control cabinets, supporting energy efficiency goals and safer electrical designs. Manual override is standard, providing independent control during power loss and simplifying commissioning or fault finding on busy lines. The wide range of sub-bases and accessories simplifies mounting, enabling rapid retrofit into ISO 5599-1 manifolds and existing SXE configurations. With aluminium body and 4400 l/m flow, the valve delivers robust performance in harsh environments while maintaining compact footprint. Spool position sensing delivers real-time feedback to the control system, improving process visibility and reducing cycle-time deviations. These features collectively enable maintenance teams to plan proactive replacements and engineers to design more reliable automation architectures.

FAQs
Yes. The VSP550045 is designed for the ISO Star family with ISO #3 ports and a 5/2 valve configuration, intended for use with ISO 5599-1 mounting bases and common SXE sub-bases. Its glandless spool, aluminium body, and IP65 enclosure support straightforward retrofits. When integrating, confirm base pattern, pilot connections, and required sub-base adapters to ensure a clean, leak-free installation.
Key performance parameters include a 5/2 valve operation with a flow of 4400 l/min, medium is compressed air, and materials of body aluminium with nitrile rubber seals. It operates from -15 to 50 °C and is IP65 rated, compatible with ISO 5599-1 mounting. This combination supports reliable high-cycle control in industrial lines while maintaining compact form factor.
The valve is engineered for harsh industrial environments thanks to the IP65 enclosure and rugged aluminium body. However, seals are nitrile rubber, which may limit suitability for certain food-grade or compatible chemicals. For such applications, verify peroxide- or fluorocarbon-based seals and confirm compatibility with your process fluids, temperatures, and cleaning cycles with Norgren engineering support.
Spool position sensing provides real-time feedback on the valve state, enabling closed-loop control and improved cycle accuracy. In automation projects, this reduces mispositioning and downstream faults, simplifies fault diagnosis, and enhances repeatability on packaging and assembly lines. This feature pairs well with PLC or industrial PC interfaces that rely on reliable valve state information.
