Product Information
Full details
This Festo HE-1/2-D-MIDI shut-off valve is designed for industrial pneumatic systems requiring precise manual control of air flow. It offers a reliable G1/2 connection and a nominal flow rate of 3600 l/min, making it ideal for pressurizing and exhausting installations. While its 3/2-way bistable design provides versatile control, users should be aware of its manual actuation, which requires direct intervention for switching.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is the maximum operating pressure for this valve?
The maximum operating pressure specified is 8 bar.
What type of connection does this valve have?
It features a G1/2 connection port thread.
Can this valve be used for automated systems?
This is a manually actuated valve, meaning it requires direct physical input to switch. It is not inherently designed for automated control without additional interfacing components.
What are the operating temperature limits?
The valve can operate within a temperature range of -5°C to +50°C.
What does '3/2-way bistable' mean?
It means the valve has three ports (supply, output, exhaust) and two stable states. The bistable nature means it will remain in the last set position until manually switched to the other state.
How do I know if the valve is open or closed?
The valve features a clearly visible switching position indicator that allows for easy monitoring of its current state.
What is the nominal flow rate?
The nominal flow rate is 3600 liters per minute (l/min).
Troubleshooting
Valve not switching positions
Ensure the actuator is being turned firmly. Check for any obstructions preventing movement. Verify the valve is not subjected to pressures exceeding its maximum rating.
Air leakage
Check all pneumatic connections for tightness. Inspect the valve body and seals for damage. Ensure the operating pressure is within the specified range.
Reduced airflow
Confirm that the system pressure is adequate and that there are no blockages in the connected pneumatic lines. Ensure the valve is fully actuated to its intended position.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides precise manual control over pneumatic systems.
- High flow rate ensures efficient operation.
- Durable design suitable for industrial environments.
- Easy to understand and operate due to manual actuation and clear indicator.
- Versatile 3/2-way functionality.
Cons
- Requires manual intervention for every state change.
- Operating temperature range is limited to -5°C to +50°C.
- Maximum operating pressure is 8 bar, which may not be suitable for all high-pressure applications.
- Not suitable for automated control systems without additional components.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the pneumatic lines are depressurized before installation. Connect the G1/2 port to your pneumatic system, ensuring a secure and leak-free connection. The valve is designed for manual operation; turn the actuator to switch between ports.
Compatibility: This valve is compatible with standard pneumatic systems operating within the specified pressure (0-16 bar, with 8 bar max operating) and temperature (-5°C to +50°C) ranges. It utilizes standard G1/2 thread connections.
Care: Keep the valve clean and free from dust and debris. Periodically inspect for any signs of wear or damage. Avoid using abrasive cleaners; a slightly damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning. Ensure the actuating mechanism moves freely.
