Compact Valves LQEc / LQEi

Use in systems with central vacuum generation for control and regulation of one or more suction circuits
Application in combination with electric vacuum generators for setting up all-electric systems
Realization of a process monitoring of vacuum systems directly at the gripper
Use in handling processes with fast suction and discharge times

Product Highlights

Direct-acting 3/2-way valve in compact design allows decentralized installation directly on the gripper for extremely fast evacuation and ventilation times
Intelligent vacuum switch enables easy monitoring and control of the gripping process and increases system availability
Design as a compact valve with integrated vacuum switch reduces the number of components required and saves time during connection and startup
Optimized flow cross-sections enable fast and reliable, purely electrical depositing of gripped workpieces without compressed air and reduce operating costs
Design as bistable valve with end position fixing and additional check valve increases process reliability even in the event of power failure
