1.1 Overview of the CPV−SC valve terminal
Festo assists you in solving your automation tasks at machine
level with valve terminals.
Due to its compact structure the CPV−SC valve terminal can
be mounted close to the actuators to be controlled. Short
compressed air tubing can therefore be used. System losses
can therefore be minimized and the times required for pres
surizing and exhausting the compressed air tubing can be
minimized. This is made possible by the use of very compact
valves with high flow rate, therefore helping to reduce costs.
The valve terminal pneumatics provide the following:
the common channels for supply and exhaust air
the electric signals from all solenoid valve coils.
Work connections 2 and 4 have been provided on all the valve
plates. The valves are supplied with compressed air via the
common channels in the valve terminal and connections in
the end plates. Both the exhaust air and auxiliary pilot ex
haust air from the valves are also exhausted via these com
mon channels. To supplement these, further components are
available, e.g. to form pressure zones or to supply additional
compressed air to the valve terminal.
