Pneumatic safety valves IMI Precision
IMI Precision Engineering expanded its pneumatic safety valves, designed to provide protection against possible hazards of compressed air in industrial automation applications. The Scva cross monitored safety valve is a pneumatically-monitored dump valve which meets DIN EN ISO 13849 standard, Dguv certified for category 4 performance level e. It offers high reverse flow of up to 30.000 l/min, allowing downstream air to be exhausted in the shortest time possible, not requiring additional electronic monitoring, is easy to retrofit in existing machines and requires only 40µ filtration, suitable even for high-frequency switching applications thanks to its B10 values.
The Scsq, compliant to the same standards, is engineered to provide also a controlled restart of air supply, adjustable to suit the downstream volume and required fill rate. The valve can be mounted as part of a control system or alternatively connected via integral adaptors to air preparation units. The range finally includes the fail-safe safety valves XSZ, both 3/3 and 5/2 way pneumatic or solenoid actuated, and the VSP valve range, for challenging applications, available as a 5/2 functional type and equipped with optional electrical position monitoring.
