Emerson has extended its range of ASCO Sentronic LP (Low Power) 617 series proportional valves with the addition of 8 and 15mm port sizes (3/8 and ½ inch). Previously available in 4mm (1/4 inch) only, this valve has been designed for accurate pressure control of air and neutral gases in applications where power is limited. With this extension of the range, you can now benefit from more flexibility in port size options and flow rates.

The Sentronic LP range offers high flow performance (varying from 470 to 5200 l/min) with a hysteresis less than 1 percent, enabling stable pressure control under flowing conditions. This makes it ideally suited for applications where precise pressure control is required. These include manufacturing applications in the automotive & tyre, food & beverage, and packaging industries.

The low power consumption (<4 Watt) and life expectancy of more than 50 million cycles makes it a very cost-effective solution. This valve enables you to reduce maintenance time and downtime due to the local display that provides clear and accurate feedback of valve status.

Installation and setup is easy due to the intelligent digital communication, simple operation and easy-to-use control panel. For more flexibility, you can use the Data Acquisition Software (DAS) to simply adjust control parameters to meet the needs of your application.

Machine footprint can be reduced because the Sentronic LP has a compact, lightweight design. To further reduce footprint, you can benefit from the space-saving manifold that can hold up to 10 valves with a ¼” port size. This compact design only requires one pressure supply, enabling an economic, simple, and quick installation.
