Illustration example.

The 3/2 RSe Series valve is designed to supply air to a zone or entire machine/system until signaled to shut off and exhaust residual downstream pneumatic energy from the machine. Thus, reducing the hazards associated with the presence of residual energy during employee access and/or minor servicing. The safety function of the 3/2 RSe Series valve is to shut off supply of pneumatic energy and to exhaust any pneumatic energy from downstream of the valve. Note: The 3/2 RSe Series valve cannot exhaust pneumatic energy from downstream of obstructions such as check valves and closed center function valves.

The RSe Series valves are designed for external monitoring for safe, redundant operation of the valves. The RSe Series valves are constructed of redundant, 3/2 spool type valves, and have an overall function of a single solenoid pilot-operated, spring return valve. Each single valve in the RSe Series is equipped with a PNP proximity sensor. Monitoring both of these sensors on each actuation and de-actuation of the RSe Series valve provides a diagnostic coverage of 99%. Monitoring of these sensors is to be done by an external monitoring system.

An integration Guide for RSe Series 3/2 valves is available from ROSS to provide information such as operation, monitoring, and integration into users control circuits.
