Frequently Asked Questions - VAVE-P17-TP-5YL1-P Festo

What is the operating pressure range for the VAVE-P17-TP-5YL1-P?

The operating pressure range is 2 to 8 bar. Ensure the air supply is clean and dry.

How many valves are on this valve terminal?

The VAVE-P17-TP-5YL1-P can support up to 8 valves depending on configuration.

What type of electrical connection does it use?

It typically uses a multi-pin connector or optional fieldbus interface (e.g., Profibus, DeviceNet). Check your specific variant.

How do I mount this valve terminal?

Mount it on a manifold plate or directly on a machine frame using the provided mounting holes. Ensure proper sealing.

What maintenance is required?

Periodically replace seals and clean air filters. Lubrication is not required with unlubricated air.

Can it be used with lubricated air?

Yes, but it is designed for unlubricated compressed air. If lubricated, use oil compatible with seals.

8 Electrical installation

WARNING

Risk of Injury due to Electric Shock.

• For the electric power supply, use only PELV circuits that ensure a reliable electric disconnection from the mains network.
• Observe IEC 60204-1/EN 60204-1.
• The unit must be powered by a power source that fulfils the requirements of an energy-limited circuit in accordance with IEC 61010-1/EN 61010-1.

WARNING

Risk of injury due to electric shock.

If the housing is damaged, protection against dangerous voltage is no longer guaranteed.

• Do not start the device.
• Immediately shut down the device.
• Install electrical connecting cables without crushing, kinking or stretching them.
• Connect field device side.

When it is switched off, the unit may generate an electrical impulse, which causes a short pressure pulse on the piezo valves.

9 Operation

WARNING

Danger of burns from hot housing surfaces.

The product does not have short circuit protection. The housing surface of the product can become hot in the event of a short circuit in the piezo valve.

• Before touching the housing surface, check the temperature.

10 Cleaning

- If necessary, clean the product with a dry, soft cloth without cleaning agents.
