Bürkert’s new cartridge valve (Type 6164) is a pneumatic pilot valve where the solenoid and precision moulded plastic valve body will slot directly into any custom manifold. Due to its outstanding reliability, above-average service life and efficient performance this valve provides the best opportunity for OEM process and machine designers to move away from external packaged pneumatic control valves.
Due to a wide range of conformance certifications, they can be used for general pneumatic piloting on machine, plus pharmaceutical production applications and for medical devices. Typically instances such as dental technology or in oxygen control units for mechanical ventilation for example.
The standard cartridge valve also scores points due to its high flow rate, pressure range and energy efficiency. The valve is available in orifice sizes from 0.5 to 1.2 mm and with an operating voltage of 12 and 24 V DC.
