Valve terminal pneumatics of type MPA
MPA pneumatics consist of serially linked MPA pneumatic
modules. From a technical viewpoint, the MPA pneumatic
modules in a CPX terminal represent digital output modules
for controlling the integrated valves (valve solenoid coils).
The pneumatic interface for MPA pneumatics provides the
mechanical and electrical connection to the MPA pneumatic
modules.
CPX terminals with MPA
pneumatics can be expanded as fol
