Product Description
A vacuum valve for preventing pumps from running when overloaded.
[Features]
· Initial exhaust valve and main exhaust valve are integrated (two-step flow rate control valve)
· Allows for compact system designs and reduced piping.
· Prevents dust turbulence inside the chamber when exhausting.
· Adjustable flow rate for initial exhaust valve.
· Body material: SCS13 (SUS304 equivalent).

Product Working Principle
- 1. Initial exhaust valve opening adjustment
Adjust the initial exhaust rate before use without applying pilot pressure to pilot port S. Set the initial exhaust rate to zero by turning the adjustment nut clockwise until it stops. (Do not use tools.) Adjust the initial exhaust rate by turning the adjustment nut counterclockwise. See figure to the right for the relationship between the number of adjustment nut rotations (pitch: 1 mm) and the initial exhaust valve conductance. - 2. Opening of the initial exhaust valve (valve S)
When pilot pressure is applied to pilot port S, valve S separates from the valve S seal assembly and opens by the adjusted amount. - 3. Opening of the main exhaust valve (valve M)
When pilot pressure is applied to pilot port M, the M valve separates from the body seat section and opens fully. - 4. Closing of the initial and main exhaust valves
Remove the pilot pressure from pilot port S and pilot port M to return the S and M valves to their previous positions and seal them.

Notes
- *The body material is SCS13 (SUS304 equivalent), the bellows material is SUS316L and the metal material used for other vacuum parts is SUS304. The standard seal material for vacuum parts is FKM, but it can be changed for other materials (see section on part number notation). Check that the fluid in use will not damage the selected material.
- *Select a heat resistance for the actuation pressure tubing materials and fittings that is appropriate for the given operating temperature.
- *The temperature of the switch part must be no higher than 60°C.
- *Refer to the manufacturer's catalog for product information not detailed above.
