Norgren has launched a new compact valve range for the rail sector. The VRW 2/2, 3/2 way 32mm solenoid poppet valve is suitable for both direct integration onto a manifold or for use with a CNOMO Interface and G1/8 port.
The direct actuated valves have fully encapsulated coils, and are available in a wide range of power and orifice sizes. Able to function in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +80°C, the range has been shock- and vibration-tested to EN61373 Category 1, class A and B and has undergone an extensive testing programme to comply with the global rail requirements in place. The valves are suitable for use in a variety of applications including brake systems, door control modules, windscreen wiper systems, suspension systems and wheel flange lubrication systems.
Frank Gevers of Norgren said, “This new range of solenoid valves draws on Norgren’s extensive experience of producing high quality pneumatic valves for the rail sector. Its versatility, ability to operate in extreme temperatures, and its ease of installation and maintenance make it ideally suited to the rail sector.
