Machine Safety – Two-Hand Tie-Down
The Series VR51 from SMC is a safety valve designed for applications that require two-hand operation, ensuring enhanced safety in machine control. It conforms to the EN574 standard, indicating its compliance with specific safety requirements. Key features of this valve include an operating pressure range of 0.25 to 1 MPa, proof pressure of 1.5 MPa, and suitability for use in a wide range of ambient and fluid temperatures (from -5 to 60° C, without freezing). The valve accommodates both metric ø 6 and inch ø 1/4 port sizes, and an optional bracket is available for installation purposes
Renco Controls offers three models of their own design: REN23-3W, REN23-4W, and REN23-4WL. Each of these is a variation of their Pneumatic Two-Hand Tie-Down Module. The 3W features a simple design which uses an internal 3-way valve; The 4W features the same design but utilizes an internal 4-way valve with a large flow of 1:1 CV; the 4WL is the same as the 4W but is capable of accepting an external logic module. Renco offers other options that may be added to any model. Contact PAI for more information regarding this product and for assistance in choosing the correct configuration for your application.
