Valve terminals type 32 MPA
Key features
Fieldbus connection v ia the CPX system
An integrated fieldbus node manages
communication with a higher-order
PLC. This enables a space-saving
pneumatic and electronic solution.
Valve terminals with fieldbus inter-
faces can be configured with up to
16 manifold blocks. In conjunction
with MPA1 and 8 solenoid coils per
manifold block, up to 128 solenoid
coil s can thus be actuated. An MPA2
with 4 solenoid coils per manifold
block can actuate 64 solenoid coils.

Control block connection via the CPX system
Controllers integrated in the Festo
valve terminals enable the construc-
tion of stand-alone control units to
IP65, without control cabinets.
Using the slave operation mode, these
valve terminals can be used for intelli-
gent pre-processing and are therefore
ideal modules for designing decentra-
lised intelligence.
In the master operation mode,
terminal groups can be designed with
many options and functions which
can autonomously control a medium-
sized machine/system.
