Proportional valve inlet pressure raised

Proportional valve inlet pressure range has been extended from 12 bar to handle an input pressure of 16 bar, thus allowing users to increase flow rates from 3600 litre/min to 5000 litre/min. .
Norgren extends VP60 proportional valve pressure range In response to market needs Norgren, the motion and fluid control specialist, has extended the input pressure range of its VP60 proportional valve. Originally specified at 12 bar the VP60 now has the capability to handle an input pressure of 16 bar. This now allows customers to increase flow rates from 3600 litre/min to 5000 litre/min.

The VP60 is ideal for applications that require very high operating figures and can be deployed in a wide variety of sectors such as mechanical engineering, automotive manufacturing, packaging, printing/paper processing, medical and food.

Typical projects within these sectors include rotational speed control, velocity control, vacuum generation and torque regulation.
