Product Description
The Festo MHA1 and MHP1 series are small, fast, versatile, and long-lasting compact miniature valves designed to actuate many tightly spaced channels or cylinders in compact installations . Featuring a directly actuated poppet valve design with a miniature 10 mm grid dimension and switching times down to 4 ms, these sub-base valves are ideal for high-density pneumatic control applications . Available as individual valves or in manifold blocks for 2 to 10 valves, they can also serve as pilot valves with an optional compact electronics module for holding current reduction .
Key Features & Advantages:
Ultra-Compact 10 mm Grid Dimension: The miniature 10 mm width allows for high-density mounting in space-constrained applications, enabling control of tightly spaced channels or cylinders .
Fast Switching Performance (4 ms): Directly actuated poppet valve design delivers switching times down to 4 ms, providing rapid response for high-speed automation processes .
Flexible Mounting Options: Available as sub-base valves for individual mounting or in manifold blocks accommodating 2 to 10 valves, simplifying installation and reducing piping complexity in multi-valve systems .
Optional Holding Current Reduction: Optional compact electronics module reduces power consumption during valve hold, making these valves ideal for energy-sensitive and portable devices .
UL Certified & VUVG Compatible: UL certification ensures compliance with safety standards . Connections and cables are identical to those used for the VUVG valve series, reducing administration and inventory costs .
Versatile as Pilot Valve: Can be used as a pilot valve for controlling larger pneumatic systems, offering design flexibility .
Vacuum Suitable: Valves are suitable for vacuum applications, expanding their range of use .
