MAC ATEX certified Puls valves

Mac valves has a broad range of ATEX certified valves, these can be used in Gas/Vapour and Dust environments according to below ATEX classifications:

Gas/Vapour : II 2 G Ex db IIC T4 Gb
Dust :  II 2 D Ex tb IIIC T135C Db

In order to protect the explosive environment from any ignition source (hot surface, electrical spark) generated by the electrical operator, every electrically operated valve is fitted with a flameproof D solenoid.
This solenoid is consisting of the parts of a standard D solenoid protected by an enclosure and cable gland that prevent any spark coming outside of the solenoid.

The power of the solenoid is also limited to 7.3W in order to limit the temperature of the valve body in standard operation.

Product Availability:
This solution fits every valve operated by a D solenoid & a D pilot valve.
Today, the following valve series are available:

Series:

  • PV03
  • PV06
  • PV09

Mounting:

  • All kinds of mounting are theoretically available: individual mounting, individual manifold, manifold.

Solenoid options:

  • All voltages & powers below 7.3W
  • Electrical connections: cable gland.

Advantages

  • ATEX certified valve for Gas/vapour and dust environments
  • Large airflow in a small package
  • High Shifting force – short stroke – Strong return spring
  • Balanced poppet and spool => Valve shifting forces are consistent an independent of pressure fluctuations.
  • Valves that don’t stick => self wiping spool mounted in glass -like bore finishing
  • Long lifetime.
