6.2 Function
The angle seat valve VZXA-...-K is an externally controlled 2/2-directional control
valve with piston drive. The valve seat is slanted approx. 40° toward the media
flow. To close the valve, the valve actuator using the piston rod presses the valve
disc into the valve seat in a force fit.
The supply of the operating medium is controlled by an external valve (usually
electrically actuated) that must also be integrated into the supply cable for the
drive.
The actuator can be rotated 360° around the valve body.
Flow over valve seat
– The valve is closed by spring force with the medium flow.
– Media pressure assists the closing of the valve.
– The valve is opened by operating pressure.
– Only suitable for gaseous media, because use of incompressible media
causes pressure surges in the piping.
Flow under valve seat
The valve is closed by spring force or by operating pressure against the media
flow.
–
Media pressure assists the opening of the valve.
– In some designs media pressure that is too high or operating pressure that is
too low can result in the valve not closing completely.

7 Transport and storage
• For delivery of used products: Comply with all legal requirements for the
handling of hazardous substances and the transport of dangerous goods. For
returns to Festo
è
2 Safety.
• Store the product in a cool, dry, UV-protected and corrosion-protected envir-
onment. Ensure that storage times are kept to a minimum.
8 Assembly and installation
With angle seat valves VZXA-...-K46-..., use only fittings G x with max. SW14.
Requirements
– The piping is unpressurised, and no medium flows in it.
– The line ends are mounted.
– Connecting cables and fittings are clean.
Cleaning the valve
• Remove all transport packaging. The material used in the packaging has been
specifically chosen for its recyclability (exception: oil-impregnated paper =
residual waste).
Traces of residual grease may be evident on the product due to the production
process used.
•
Clean the valve immediately before installation.
Installing the valve
WARNING!
Risk of injury due to slipping or falling objects.
The valve can weigh up to 5.75 kg, depending on the product version. Body parts
can be crushed. This could cause serious head injury in overhead installations.
•
Secure the valve from falling or slipping with suitable equipment.
1. Bring the valve into its mounting position.
– Observe the flow direction. The permitted flow direction is marked by an
arrow on the valve housing
è Fig.1, 6 .
2. Connect the piping to the valve housing.

3. Connect the operating medium line.
– Pneumatic connection (2): operating medium
– Pneumatic connection (4): exhaust port for single-acting drives or operat-
ing medium for double-acting drives
4. For single-acting drives: mount the silencer in the exhaust port or use a
tubing connection for guided exhaust air.
