Miniature proportional valve for high flow and low power

eliminates the need for an inlet regula- tor. This allows for a smaller medical device design that offers optimum results, and the consistent flow

The Precision Fluidics division of Parker Hannifin has announced the release of its VSO ® Max HP miniature high flow proportional valve. This latest innovation combines delivery of high flow rates with 25 per cent less power consumption than comparable miniature proportional valves. VSO Max HP provides flows greater than 200 SLPM at 3.10 bar, while consuming less than 2 watts of power, making it suitable for medical applications that require pressure and volume control, such as ventilators, insufflators and anesthesia delivery machines. As the reduction in size of medical devices without compromising on reliability becomes paramount, VSO Max HP has been engineered to deliver an operating pressure of up to 8.27 bar, which

Val-Matic’s Air Valve Sizing Program is a web-based software program designed to aid in selecting air valves along a pipeline. Users are able to enter and save design information specific to their pump, water pipeline or wastewater force main, to calculate the locations and sizes of AWWA air valves. The program will also calculate the collapse pressure, slope and gravity flow in the pipe. Recommendations are given for air valve locations, sizes and model numbers for pipeline and pump discharge locations. Val-Matic Valve & Mfg Corp – USA valves@valmatic.com www.valmatic.com
