CPV10 Festo Solenoid Valve Series CPV10 Supply Air G1 8 Pneumatic Valve Providing Switching for Automated Pneumatic Systems

Product Description:

A key highlight of this series is its remarkable compactness. Each valve plate measures only 10 millimeters in width, allowing it to fit within a very small installation volume. Despite its size, it integrates the functionality of two valves—either dual electric control or a two-position five-way valve—achieving an exceptionally high power density. This compact design enables direct installation near actuators or equipment modules, significantly saving space within control cabinets.

The CPV10 features a modular splicing architecture, which allows multiple valve plates—typically between 2 and 8 units—to be connected seamlessly based on actual requirements. These can be managed uniformly through bus nodes, providing a flexible and scalable configuration. This modularity makes it simple to expand capabilities; if additional functions are needed in the future, simply add more valve plates.

Despite its small footprint, the valve series delivers impressive fluid performance, supporting a standard flow rate of up to 400 liters per minute, sufficient to drive most standard cylinders. Its close installation proximity to actuators shortens the air path length, reducing pressure loss and accelerating the cylinder’s response time.

This series offers a broad selection of electrical interface options to accommodate various on-site requirements, including:

• Multi-pin Interface: Utilizes multi-core cables to simplify wiring processes.
• Fieldbus Interface: Supports major industrial fieldbus protocols such as PROFIBUS-DP, DeviceNet, CANopen, and EtherCAT, enabling smooth integration into automation networks.
• AS-i Interface: Designed for simple distributed I/O control systems.

The valve island boasts a protection rating of IP65, effectively safeguarding against dust ingress and water jets from all directions, ensuring reliable operation even in harsh industrial conditions. Moreover, select models have achieved ATEX explosion-proof certification, making them suitable for use in hazardous environments like the chemical and pharmaceutical industries where explosion risks are present.

Each valve plate is equipped with an LED status indicator, providing clear visual feedback on valve conditions such as on/off states and fault alerts. Additionally, most models include manual control devices (manual triggers), which facilitate hands-on operation during debugging, maintenance, or power outages. This feature greatly simplifies troubleshooting and upkeep.

Applications:

The CPV10 valve island is known for its compact size, flexibility, and high reliability, making it a popular choice in various automation settings where both space and efficiency are critical.

In general industrial automation, this valve island is ideally suited for numerous applications including packaging machinery, assembly lines, material handling systems, transportation, and sorting equipment, providing robust and efficient pneumatic control.

For industries that demand cleanliness and precision, such as electronic assembly, semiconductor manufacturing, medical device production, and pharmaceutical packaging, the CPV10 offers dependable performance with high-volume pneumatic components that meet stringent reliability standards.

Moreover, the CPV10 Series includes explosion-proof models designed for use in hazardous environments. These variants are suitable for chemical and biological industries where flammable and explosive gases or dust may be present, ensuring safe and reliable operations under special environmental conditions.
