Ensure a constant vacuum in applications where multiple suction cups are used with this security valve from Festo. It stops a vacuum from breaking down if one or more suction cups don't have a tight seal and improves the overall efficiency of a vacuum generator. The valve also prevents wastage of compressed air and saves on energy costs in industrial pneumatic systems. Its sintered bronze filter is maintenance-free to reduce downtime and it produces low friction for enhanced longevity. The valve has two M5 pneumatic connection ports for standard use.

• Wide operating temperature range of -10°C to +60°C
• Extremely light at only 4g for improved efficiency
• Can be assembled in any position for versatile use

• Manual and automated handling applications
• Food and beverage industries
• Clamping and loading

This security valve is fitted between a vacuum generator and a suction cup and stops the influx of air if a suction cup is uncovered or only partially covered. When the cup makes a tight seal, the valve allows the vacuum to be regenerated and closes immediately when an object is removed from a suction cup.
