New SIL & PL certified digital proportional valves from Atos
Atos has launched a full range of digital proportional and conventional valves designed for functional safety and offering standard axis motion control.
By keeping the on-board diagnostics active when removing solenoid power, Atos valves confirm when a safe spool position has been reached. The valves are certified by TÜV in compliance with ISO 13849 up to category 4, PL e and IEC 61508 up to SIL 2/SIL 3.
Certified safety valves eliminate the need for machine manufacturers to validate such components comply with the applicable safety standards. This saves a considerable amount of time during the machine design phase and the system certification process.
