Product Description
The Festo VABA-C13 adapter plate is a pneumatic extension module that serves as the standardised interface between the VTOP valve terminal, a pneumatic actuator (e.g., quarter-turn drives DFPD and DAPS series) and a positioner (e.g., Festo CMSH) . Conforming to VDI/VDE 3847-2 for positioner mounting and VDI/VDE 3845-1 for actuator interfacing, this adapter plate enables the integrated AiRing air distribution system, eliminating the need for complex external piping and ensuring leak-free operation . The adapter plate is the first module in the VTOP valve island assembly and is available in four variants to accommodate different actuator sizes and connection requirements .
Key Features & Advantages
Standardised Interface per VDI/VDE 3847-2 and 3845-1: Provides the defined mechanical and pneumatic connection between VTOP valve terminal, positioner (e.g., Festo CMSH) and pneumatic actuator, ensuring compatibility with industry-standard components
Four Variants for Different Actuator Sizes and Connections: Available as VABA-C13-100-1-F90-G12 for DFPD-240 to -900 actuators, VABA-C13-100-2-F90-G12 for DFPD-1200 to -2300 actuators, and G14 variants with additional G1/4 working ports for third-party actuators with VDI/VDE 3845-1 interface
Integrated AiRing for Leak-Free Air Distribution: The adapter plate features integrated air ducts that supply all connected modules (volume booster VOGM, filter regulator PCRI, fail-safe module VOGI) without external piping, significantly reducing potential leakage points and installation complexity
Robust Anodised Aluminium Construction with Stainless Steel Screws: Crafted from high-quality anodised wrought aluminium alloy with high-alloy stainless steel screws, offering excellent corrosion resistance and long service life in demanding process environments
Multiple Pneumatic Connection Options: G12 variants feature G1/2 connections for supply air (port 1) and exhaust air (port 3); G12-G14 variants provide additional G1/4 working ports (2 and 4) for flexible actuator connection
Direct Interface for DFPD-...-C-VDE2 Actuators: Select adapter plate variants feature a dedicated interface for DFPD actuators with integrated VDI/VDE 3847-2 positioner mounting (suffix -C-VDE2), simplifying assembly
Earthing Connection Point for EMC Compliance: Integrated M4 earthing screw on the adapter plate for proper system grounding and electrostatic discharge prevention
Compatible with DFPD, DAPS, and Third-Party Actuators: Specifically designed for Festo DFPD quarter-turn actuators (sizes 240–2300) and DAPS series, as well as third-party actuators with VDI/VDE 3845-1 interface
Suitable for Use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Zones 1,2,21,22: The VTOP system with VABA-C13 adapter plate has been analysed for ignition hazards according to EN ISO 80079-36/37 and can be used in hazardous areas zones 1, 2, 21 and 22 when used as intended

VTOP System Integration
The adapter plate VABA-C13 is the first module in the VTOP valve island assembly. The recommended assembly sequence is :
VABA-C13 Adapter Plate (mounted to actuator)
VOGM Volume Booster (optional, for flow amplification)
VOGI Fail-Safe Module (optional, for defined end position on pressure loss)
PCRI Filter Regulator (optional, for air quality and pressure regulation)
VABE-C13 End Plate (required, closes the valve island with integrated reversing plate for double-acting actuators)
The AiRing function distributes compressed air internally through the integrated air ducts, eliminating the need for complex tubing or piping for the individual modules .
Ideal For
Process automation applications requiring positioner-controlled pneumatic actuation, controlling single and double-acting quarter-turn actuators (butterfly valves, ball valves), chemical and petrochemical plants, oil and gas facilities, power generation, water treatment, pharmaceutical manufacturing, applications needing VDI/VDE 3847-2 compliant positioner mounting, systems requiring volume boosting (VOGM), fail-safe functionality (VOGI), or air filtration/regulation (PCRI), integration with Festo CMSH smart positioner, and hazardous area applications in ATEX Zones 1, 2, 21, and 22.
