  • Has 5/2 switching
  • 300 l/min flow
  • -0.9 to 10 bar pressure
  • 24 V DC voltage
  • single solenoid
  • soft seal
  • spool valve
  • plate connection
  • spring return
  • base plate blocking
  • Can be modular

AVENTICS R422102429 5/3-directional valve

A 5/3-directional valve, part of the Series AV03 of pneumatic valves and valve systems from Emerson. It is designed for efficient and reliable automation solutions, especially for compact handling systems and complex automation applications.

The technical specifications of aventics R422102429 are as follows:

  • Activation: Electrically
  • Switching principle: 5/3
  • Version: Closed Center
  • DC operating voltage: 24 V
  • Manual override: without detent
  • Actuating control: Double Solenoid
  • Sealing principle: Soft Seal
  • Pilot: External (In this scenario, pilot means the external source of compressed air that is used to shift the valve piston. The pilot valve is a small valve that controls the flow of the pilot air to the main valve. The pilot air acts as a signal to change the position of the valve spool, which in turn changes the direction of the fluid flow in the system.)
  • Connection type: Plate connection
  • Return: With spring return
  • Control pressure: 3 to 8 bar
  • Ambient and medium temperature: -10 to 60 °C
  • Medium: Compressed air
  • Max. particle size: 40 µm
  • Oil content of compressed air: min. 0 mg/m³

The pilot valve is a small valve that controls the flow of the pilot air to the main valve. The pilot air acts as a signal to change the position of the valve spool, which in turn changes the direction of the fluid flow in the system.)
  • Connection type: Plate connection
  • Return: With spring return
  • Blocking principle: Base plate principle, multiple
  • Control pressure: 3 to 8 bar
  • Ambient and medium temperature: -10 to 60 °C
  • Medium: Compressed air
  • Max. particle size: 40 µm
  • Oil content of compressed air: min. 0 mg/m³

EMERSON RXI2-LP IPC

Research in the field of pneumatics is not always easy, but it is certainly rewarding. We, the UPBAIR team, employ a Powerful Industrial Computer (IPC) from Emerson, the RXi2-LP model, to streamline the data collection and analysis process resulting from experiments conducted in the laboratory.

From a hardware perspective, the RXi2-LP IPC boasts a stable and robust configuration. The proverbial brain of this dedicated Mini PC for industrial activities is an Intel Quad Core Processor clocked at 1.2GHz, paired with a modest 8 GB of ECC DDR3 RAM. The connectivity is also impressive, featuring not only 4 USB ports but also 4 Gigabit Ethernet ports. These, combined with speedy SSD storage, prove invaluable in research projects. For more informations about the product you can follow the following link.

In our laboratory, we opted to replace the default operating system (Windows 10) of the compact yet powerful “data-consuming” system with Linux, specifically the Ubuntu variant. We chose this option primarily for its stability, as in this field, Ubuntu surpasses any version of Windows.
