Mechanical data
Gas types: clean air. The air must be clean and dry
in all temperature conditions and must not contain
condensate.
Medium temperature = ambient temperature.
CE approved, max. inlet pressure p
u

Flow adjustment limits the maximum flow rate to be-
tween approx. 20 and 100%.
Adjustment of the start rate: 0 to approx. 70%.
Opening times:
VAA../N quick opening: ≤ 1 s;
