Function
-M-Standard nominal flow rate
236 … 7,691 l/min
-Q- Temperature range
–10…+80°C
-L- Operating pressure
–0.95…+12bar
Hand slide valves VBOH are used as a
shut-off function for pressurising and
exhausting compressed air systems,
for example upstream of service unit
combinations, for air guns and also for
exhausting pneumatic cylinders.
• Non-overlapping, so no pressure
losses when switching
• Minimal installation
• High flow rate and operating
pressure
• Exclusive design
