The WSV spray valve is a universally applicable electric spray valve for the reliable and consistent application of low- to high-viscosity media. With its compact design (134,5 x 25 x 45 mm) and integrated electronics, it is suitable for direct integration into existing and new production systems without the need for additional control technology or software. An Ethernet-based bus connection enables complete parameterization and visualization of all process parameters via a web-based dashboard.
The WSV spray valve is equipped with four digital inputs/outputs (DIOs) for controlling peripheral devices, a valve heater with temperature control for precise temperature regulation of the medium, and a pressure sensor for monitoring and analyzing the process pressure profile. These features offer a high degree of flexibility and process reliability. An integrated push button allows manual operation of the spray valve for immediate inspection of the application pattern, further simplifying commissioning and maintenance.
Flexible process control: With its real-time monitoring and documentation of process parameters, the WSV spray valve intelligently opens up new possibilities for increasing process capability and optimizing overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) and product quality. Remote parameterization and diagnostics via the web interface enable efficient fault detection and resolution. Alarms and messages are freely configurable and can be linked to specific process variables.
Thanks to its high level of functional integration, the smart WSV offers a cost-effective alternative to conventional valve solutions. Compared to pneumatic or hydraulic systems, the WSV's electric valve actuator also enables precise control and saves energy. This leads to a reduction in operating costs, especially in energy-intensive applications.
Expansion stages: The WSV spray valve is available in three versions to meet different application requirements.
- BASIC: Integrated control and parameterization via dashboard, 4 digital inputs/outputs for messages and status display, analog output for controlling the control air, integrated push button.
- ADVANCED: In addition to the basic equipment, integrated heating for regulating the medium temperature.
- PROFESSIONAL: Highest expansion stage with additional pressure sensor for monitoring and evaluation of the process pressure profile.
Compact and cost-efficient: All three versions of the WSV have identical dimensions. This simplifies the installation and integration of the WSV variants into different systems. The modular design of the spray valve also allows for the quick replacement of individual components; this reduces maintenance costs and minimizes downtime.
Add-ons and updates: The software add-ons “ are available to extend the functionality of the WSV spray valve.Ethernet bus system“, “valve needle lift monitoring” and “Multi-parameter sets“Available. Firmware updates can be installed automatically and enable continuous optimization of the valve functions.
