5/3 Exhausted Solenoid Valve

The Festo VSVA-B-P53E-D-D1-1R5L is a 42 mm wide pneumatic valve designed for machine automation and process control. It operates on 24 V DC with a 1.6 W coil and conforms to ISO 5599-1 for standardised mounting. The 5/3 exhausted centre function vents both output ports when de-energised, suiting safety-critical cylinder positioning.

Sustained Load Behaviour

A 100 % duty cycle rating allows continuous energisation without overheating, while the pilot-controlled piston gate design maintains consistent switching across the 3 to 10 bar pressure range. Switching times of 22 ms on and 65 ms off remain repeatable during extended cycling, and the soft-sealing principle minimises internal leakage over long production runs.

Build and Mounting Practicalities

The IP65-rated housing with an integrated LED status indicator withstands wash-down environments and simplifies field diagnostics. Internal pilot air supply reduces external tubing, and the non-reversible flow direction ensures correct installation on individual sub-bases or pneumatically concatenated manifolds. Mounting position is unrestricted, and throttle-plate flow control can be added without changing the valve footprint.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 1.6 W coil generate during continuous 100 % duty operation?

The coil draws 1.6 W at 24 V DC with a 100 % duty cycle, so steady-state heat equals that power draw; the IP65-rated body dissipates it without forced cooling.

What pneumatic supply and electrical connection must already be in place for this valve to operate?

You need a compressed-air source regulated between 3 bar and 10 bar, a 24 V DC supply tolerant of ±10 % fluctuation, and a sub-base with G1/4 or compatible ports for the 42 mm wide valve.

Will the 22 ms on / 65 ms off switching times work with a legacy PLC scan cycle of 10 ms?

The valve’s 22 ms energise and 65 ms de-energise times are longer than a 10 ms scan, so the PLC must use output latching or a slower task to avoid missed transitions.
