3 or 4-port, 3-position direct-acting solenoid valve, VA01PEP34A and VA01RDP33, are for vacuum and vacuum break. This valve is most suitable for high speed pick and place application. One valve can operate both vacuum and vacuum break controls.
- Light weight and compact. Body width: 10mm, weight: up to 56g
- Quick response time. 5ms high speed response time and stable operation at the time of turning ON/OFF.
- Needle valve for vacuum break flow control. Air flow for vacuum break can be controlled according to work by a needle valve in the flow path for vacuum break.
- Atmospheric release mechanism (VA01PEP34A). It serves to release the suction side pressure to the atmospheric air once and then supp0ly air for vacuum break, when doing vacuum break from the vacuum state. This feature will be highly effective for loading and unloading very small work quickly in a stable state.
- Manifold is available. Vacuum port for common or individual manifolds are available up to 10 stations.
- Holds vacuum at intermediate position (VA01RDP33). Solenoid valve returns to intermediate position at the time of power failure and emergency stop, and holds attraction with vacuum pad.
- Manifold with needle valve for vacuum flow control (VA01RDP33). Vacuum flow can be controlled according to work by a needle valve in the flow path to each solenoid valve in the manifold.

The customers who are using high speed pick and place application have the following problems.
- Parts around vacuum-breaking air are blown off, when work is detected.
- Timing of detaching work tends to vary.
- Re-sacking occurs after work is detached.
- Two solenoid valves required to set up an atmospheric release circuit.
>>>>> Using VA01PEP34A/RDP33 will cut down these problems!!
