A.1.3 Pneumatics
Solenoid valves
Operating/pilot medium Compressed air in accordance with ISO
8573-1:2010 [7:4:4]
Notes on the operating/pilot medium Lubricated operation possible (in which case
lubricated operation will always be required)
Design – Valve sub-bases with piston spool valves
– Valve sub-bases with poppet valves
Manual override Non-detenting or turning with detent
Operating pressure/pilot pressure
–Valveswithinternal pilot air supply (branched from connection (1))
All valve sub-bases on port (1) The pressure at the connection (1) must lie within
the ra nge of the required pilot pressure of the
valves. ( diagrams Fig. A.1 … Fig. A.5, max. 8 bar)
