August 6, 2007 - Lexington, KY With a width of only 17 or 21 millimeters, the universally applicable TC08 and TC15 valves provide a high flow rate of 0.8Cv in the TC08 and up to 1.5Cv in the TC15. A combination of in-line and manifoldable valves offer the user flexibility.
The polymer valve body results in a light-weight package. The single valves can be flange mounted to any flat surface and the modular manifold system has room for up to 12 valve positions. The TC series is universally applicable, thanks to its electric connection options, choice of inch (1/8and 1/4NPT) or ISO-G (G1/8 and G1/4) ports, and they can even be used for vacuum applications.
A user-friendly, modular design with compact dimensions permits use in tight spaces. The valve manifold has an especially low height because it does not need subbases. Other features include easy exchange of valves without disassembling the manifold, and ability to have pressure zones via additional supply plates.
An Internet configurator is available to help configure factory assembled manifolds online, and provides a manifold part number and CAD drawing immediately.
