General valves feature modular design

Type 6027 modular general-purpose solenoid valves can be configured for use in a wide variety of applications

Bürkert’s new Type 6027 modular general-purpose solenoid valves are suitable for use with vacuum, neutral gases, fluids (typically compressed air, water or hydraulic oil) and slightly aggressive media at pressures up to 16bar.

The range consists of three modules, known as the Mini, Small and Compact, which can be combined so users can assemble multiple variations of functions, temperature ranges, coil ratings, chemical resistance and approvals.

This simplifies valve selection, providing the benefits of standardisation and a virtually unlimited combination of valve options

The type 6027 is a direct-acting (2/2 and 3/2 NO and NC) range of solenoid valves for shut-off, dosing, filling and ventilating tasks, as well as for vacuum applications. Manufactured with brass or stainless steel (316L) bodies and available with G1/8, G1/4 ports and sub-base connections, the 6027 valves are designed for gas handling, steam and water treatment applications. However, the valves are general-purpose types and can be used in all applications where the controlled media is not aggressive.

6027 series valves are also claimed to combine higher performance with reduced energy consumption, resulting in lower costs. This is achieved by using the latest coil technology and by integrating boosters that are extremely compact in design. The use of booster electronics offers several advantages: first, enhanced performance due to the ability to switch higher pressures; second, the technology provides energy saving via low-wattage operation; third, integrated diagnostic functions for fast fault detection; and fourth, the very small size of the boosters delivers exceptionally high flow rates from a compact package. This feature is complemented by the overall design of the push-over solenoid coil system, with the modular design offering the flexibility for individual valve mounting, or as a block on a multiple manifold.

In addition to optimising the operating costs of an installation, the 6027 range offers planning-related benefits. The modular system makes it quick and easy for users to select the right combination of coil and housing to meet the exact performance characteristics of a system.

Furthermore, the 6027 range can also be tailored to specific requirements. This could be in respect of housing materials (stainless steel or brass), electrical connections (DIN plugs or cables), different sub-base housings, alternative coil and seal materials, and non-standard port connections and voltages.
