7XV Remote Valve Terminal Series

The 7XV Remote Valve Terminal series remote valve terminal from B&R brings distributed digital output control to pneumatic, hydraulic and other mechatronic applications. The key module provides 8 independent transistor outputs rated for 24VDC/0.1A each. This allows direct activation of common solenoid valves without additional switching elements. Communication from the controller is achieved through a rugged 25-pin D-Sub connector using B&R's open X2X Link protocol. This guarantees galvanic isolation between field and control levels. Modules can be installed close to actuated valves thanks to an IP20 protection rating permitting some debris ingress. For longevity even in harsh washdown environments, connections are made via screw clamps rather than plugs. The 7XV Remote Valve Terminal solves a major challenge by controlling valve states directly from decentralized I/O. Engineers gain maximum installation flexibility while preserving open standard communication. Precise pneumatic or hydraulic positioning becomes easier than ever through simplified distributed valve logic execution.
