Product Description:

The FESTO MFH/JMFH series , known in the industry as the "Tiger Valve" for its reliable performance, is a popular line of pneumatic solenoid valves. These valves are engineered to provide high flow rates in a compact design, making them suitable for a wide range of automation applications.

The MFH series consists of single solenoid valves with spring return, while the JMFH series comprises double solenoid valves with a memory function. Both series can be mounted easily either directly via sub-base or onto standardized ISO mounting interfaces such as PAL or PRS systems for modular valve terminal configurations.

These valves are the ideal choice for controlling various pneumatic actuators, including cylinders, grippers, and more.

Features:

High Flow in Compact Design: Optimized internal flow paths ensure excellent flow characteristics (e.g., Cv values up to ~1.8 or higher) despite the very small build size, enabling fast cylinder cycle times.

Exceptional Flexibility & Modularity:

• Multiple Functions: Available as 5/2-way, 5/3-way, and 3/2-way valves.
• Versatile Mounting: Can be installed individually via threaded ports or quickly snapped onto standardized valve manifolds, allowing for easy creation of multi-valve control stations.
• Interchangeable Coils: Solenoid coils are available separately in a wide range of voltages (e.g., 24V DC, 110V AC, 230V AC) and types (e.g., standard, low-wattage, manual override), providing great electrical compatibility.

Robustness and Reliability:

• Durable metal body (e.g., aluminum) ensures longevity and resistance in harsh industrial environments.
• High IP65 protection rating (when used with appropriate connector) guards against dust and water jets.
• Broad Compatibility: Operates effectively within a standard pressure range of 0.15 MPa to 0.9 MPa (1.5 to 9 bar), suitable for most common pneumatic systems.

Applications:

The MFH/JMFH Tiger Valve series is designed to be versatile and dependable, making it suitable for a wide range of industries. Its compact power and reliability set it apart in various applications:

General Factory Automation: The Tiger Valve series is a great choice for assembly machines, material handling equipment, packaging machinery, and CNC systems where precise actuator control is essential.

Automotive Manufacturing: These valves are commonly used in welding, clamping, pressing, and testing stations along production lines in the automotive industry. Their speed and reliability make them crucial components in this setting.

Plastics and Rubber Machinery: In injection molding machines, blow molders, and robotic handlers, the Tiger Valve series provides control over auxiliary functions to enhance efficiency and performance.

Packaging and Food & Beverage Industry: For filling, capping, labeling, and sorting machines in the packaging and food & beverage sector, these valves are a fitting choice for controlling actuators. Specific material and certification requirements should be considered based on the application.
