Versa solenoid valve
The Versa line of air control valves offers a broad selection of sizes, types, actuators and mountings. The total spectrum of applications for Versa valves, covers a diversity of energy, environmental and high-tech markets including: process control, robotic, packaging, textile, wood, mobile, automotive, printing, tires, oil and gas drilling, and many other industries where reliable, precise control is not only necessary, but vital.
General Description
Two valve series, Series E and Series E5, comprise the direct actuated, 3 port/2 position valves. The only difference between the two series is physical size and weight, Series E being the greater of the two. Both series offer high reliability at low cost. Stainless steel construction provides the compatibility for use
with many aggressive media and environments. A variation of the valve type provides electrical quick exhaust valves. These valves function the same as a 3-way valve, but a larger capacity exhaust and rapid response to slight pressure differential during the de-energized portion of the cycle, results in a more rapid evacuation of the controlled device than would be expected with a standard 3-way valve.

General Description
Versa 3-way normally closed Lockout Valves function the same as a solenoid operated-spring return valve, except that a means is provided to allow the valve to be physically locked with a padlock or hasp with padlock in order to prevent accidental actuation. Two types of lockout are available: one provides the ability for locking the valve in the un-energized position whereby the inlet is blocked and the exhaust is open; the other type provides the ability for locking in either the un-energized or energized position.

Bleed Control Valves
The VERSA Bleed Control Valve has a precision machined needle that provides an economical, effective flow control in pneumatic applications. The Bleed
Control Valve can be threaded into the exhaust port of any VERSA directional control valve to provide speed control. The flow area, through which the air passes to the atmosphere, can be finely adjusted by screwing the needle in or out. After the Bleed Control Valve has been adjusted to suit, it can be securely locked at its setting with the lock nut provided.

General Description
Latching valves are particularly suited to applications where it is desirable or mandatory to manually reset or restart a system. A typical application could involve the emergency shut-down of automatically monitored process operations. Loss or interruption of the control sig-nal to the valve actuator causes the valve to shift, latch and shut-down a process step. When the signal is restored the valve remains in the latched position until the operator manually unlatches it and allows the process step to resume. Positive latching in such an application is vitally important since many process operations are sequential and one step must not be started until the one ahead of it has started. This example is only one of many which can be accommodated through the use of Versa°s Latching Valves. A wide range of functional types, port sizes, actuators, and latching arrangements provide the engineer with a complete choice of valving to suit his particular needs.

A Quick Exhaust Valve is a three-way, 3/2 valve with extra large exhaust orifice, to be fitted directly at a cylin-der port connection. When pressure decreases at the inlet of the Quick Exhaust Valve, the outlet is automati- cally opened to the exhaust and the cylinder is quickly depressurized.

General Description
When parallel electronic control circuits are utilized in a system, if a complete control circuit fails or requires maintenance, the parallel circuit will keep the system running. In a parallel circuit Versa°s Redundant Valve functions the same as a solenoid operat-ed-spring return valve, except that it has two solenoids (one for each of the parallel circuits) rather than one solenoid. Either or both of these solenoids will shift and maintain the controlled device in the shifted position. Both solenoids must be de-energized to return the controlled device to the unshifted position. The use of one Redundant Valve can replace multiple valves and components to accomplish the same function.

General Description
The Versa C5 NAMUR mount control valve is a high flow, 5-port, solenoid/pilot valve. It is designed to mount directly to any NAMUR actuator, thus reducing actuator response time and cost of tubing, fittings, brackets, and labor. Many adaptor kits are available for non-NAMUR actuators. Consult factory for kit
availability.The 5-port design allows the C5 NAMUR to be ordered as either 4-way (for double acting actuators) or 3-way (for spring return or fail-safe actuators). The function of this valve is field convertible utilizing no special tools, gaskets, or sealants. Relocation of a port plug converts a 3-way to a 4-
way, or a 4-way to a 3-way. When the 4-way valve is converted to 3-way function, the unused exhaust port becomes an actua-tor vent into which afilter/muffler can be installed to prevent contaminents from entering either the valve or the actuator.Single solenoid models (for 2-position control), or double sole-noid models (for 2 or 3-position control) are available. Actuator positioning is possible with the use of 3-position valves since all Versa C5 NAMUR valves are leakfree/bubbletight. A complete selection of electrical connections, area classific

General Description
The Versa E5 NAMUR mount control valve is an inexpensive,simple and effective 3-way direct-acting solenoid valve. It is designed to mount directly to any NAMUR actuator thus reduc- ing cost of tubing, fittings, brackets and labor. It is most effective on spring return or fail-safe actuators where high speed open or close is not important, but where cost is a factor. A threaded actuator vent port is standard.

General Description
Versa Series V valves are full flow port valves, available in 1/8, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 3/4 and 1° NPT port sizes. Ports of 1/8 to 1/2 ISO 228 °G° threads are also avail-able. Three-way designs are provided with 3 ports; four-way designs have 5 ports. Each is available for 2-position or 3-position service. Standard size O ring seals provide leak-free/bubbletight sealing and ease of repair, if necessary. Each valve is solenoid/pilot actuated, which enables the use of physically small solenoids and resultant low power consump-tion, and also assures a large positive shifting force without fear of coil burn-out. A complete selection of electrical connec-tions, area classifications, and power requirements makes the most exacting and demanding specifications or applications easy to satisfy.
