Festo 5/2 monostable solenoid valve

The Festo VSVA-B-M52-MZ-A1-1C1-APC is a 5/2-way monostable pneumatic valve actuated by a 24 V DC electrical signal. Its piston gate design with soft sealing suits automation tasks that require reliable directional control. The valve mounts in any orientation and accepts an external pilot air supply. A covered manual override allows local actuation during commissioning or maintenance.

Sustained operation at 100 % duty cycle

Continuous energisation is supported with a 100 % duty cycle, so the valve maintains its switched state indefinitely without thermal derating. Switching times are 21 ms on and 41 ms off, while the integrated inductive sensor adds 60 ms on and 11 ms off for position feedback. The pilot pressure range of 3 to 10 bar ensures consistent actuation across the full operating envelope of -0.9 to 16 bar.

26 mm wide body with inductive sensing

The compact 26 mm width and 9 mm nominal bore allow dense manifold assembly on individual sub-bases. All electrical connections include reverse polarity protection, and an LED accessory indicates sensor switching status. Flow capacity reaches 1100 l/min on a sub-base and 1400 l/min on the valve body, with any flow direction permitted for flexible piping layouts.

Questions about this item

Does the 24V DC coil draw noticeable heat or power when the valve runs at 100% duty cycle all day?

The valve is rated for 100% duty cycle at 24V DC, meaning it can operate continuously without overheating under normal pneumatic loads.

What pneumatic fittings and pilot supply must I already have to install this 5/2 monostable valve?

You need G1/8 or equivalent ports for the main flow and a separate external pilot supply of 3 to 10 bar connected to the designated pilot port.

Will the 11 ms sensor off-switching time and LED status work with my older PLC input modules?

The inductive sensor provides LED indication and 11 ms off-switching; compatibility depends on your PLC input filter and voltage level matching 24V DC signals.
