After successfully launching the AVENTICS Series XV03 in most world regions in July, Emerson has now released the popular XV03 valve for U.S. markets, as well as globally released the larger Series XV05 and a bottom-ported version of the XV03. The XV03 provides flow volumes up to 350 liters per minute in normal conditions (NL/min), and the XV05 provides up to 1000 NL/min.
In addition to new flow rates and configurations, Series XV valves are also available with UL certifications and more accessories. Both the XV03 and XV05 are designed for compliance with UL429 and UL61010 for quality and safety. New and existing accessories provide greater functionality and include separators, blank stations, pressure supply plates, sandwich pressure supply, and sandwich pressure exhaust. There is also a custom toolbox that contains the most important tools to assemble XV systems.
The next phase of the staged XV release will see the continued launch of new accessories as they become available, as well as greater connectivity. Additional fieldbus protocols will be launched throughout 2025, including Powerlink, CanOpen in mid-2025 and AS-I in late 2025. The valve systems currently support Profinet, Ethernet/IP, EtherCAT, Modbus TCP, Profibus DP and IO-Link.
Next-generation Series XV valves use proven core valve AVENTICS technology and include metal threads, aluminum base plates and compact dimensions to make integration easier. Complete valve systems are easy to commission with the AVENTICS online configurator that streamlines design and layout. To reduce lead times for every global region, three Emerson plants are equipped to manufacture orders.
Providing higher flow rates in a compact valve package, Series XV valves enable more efficient and flexible pneumatic system performance while offering products customized for specific markets, including factory automation, automotive and tire, food and packaging applications. Part of a Floor to CloudTM approach, Series XV valves power machinery and processes at a component level, helping manufacturers boost productivity in applications.
