Camozzi launches new series of high

flow valve islands

amozzi Automation has released a
25mm version of its new Series D
range of valve islands; a highly
Cversatile solution that allows
expandable pneumatic and electrical
functions in restricted spaces.
Said to be particularly suited to
applications requiring high flow rates with a
robust and compact design, the 25mm, Size 4 potential breakage. The Series D range’s vast
valve has a 2000 Nl/min flow rate and is number of electrical connection possibilities
available in both multipole and fieldbus versions. allow islands with a variety of valve positions
Constructed entirely of aluminium to and different pressure zones to be created. Series
