The new VEMD proportional flow control valve from Festo uses the latest piezo technology to deliver highly dynamic control for numerous medical and other industrial control applications.
The VEMD is designed to control flows of up to 20 l/m at a maximum pressure of 2.5 bar. The modular design of the VEMD addresses the needs of OEM customers as well as end-users.
The gas flow at the output of the valve can be adjusted very easily and controlled in linear mode by entering a setpoint between 0 and 10 V. An integrated control circuit with a thermal sensor makes the VEMD precise and dynamic. It responds up to 35 times faster than comparable products to a setpoint change and is ready for operation straight out of the box.
The VEMD proportional flow control valve is part of Festo’s high-performance piezo technology gas handling range, which includes a selection of proportional valves and pressure regulators. Based on this technology platform Festo’s specialist application engineering team has worked closely with clients in medical, semi-conductor, and other sectors to provide application-specific solutions e.g. for oxygen and other volatile gases.
