New-Jersey based ASCO, a leading manufacturer of valves and actuators, has announced that its Numatics G3 Series and Numatics 580 Series electronic platforms have been expanded to control up to 128 solenoid valves on a single valve manifold assembly.
The expanded G3 and 580 Series platforms feature process control architecture that permits the design engineer or end use specifier to optimize the size of the control cabinet for the number of required valves. The expanded valve platforms are designed to support 128 Numatics 501 Series solenoid valves and 80 Numatics 502 and 503 Series valves.
Additionally, to increase the valve platforms’ capacity, ASCO added mid-station blocks with valve drivers and auxiliary power connectors.
