Pick-and-mix modular general-purpose solenoid valves

The type 6027 is a direct-acting (2/2 and 3/2 NO and NC) range of solenoid valves for shut-off, dosing, filling and ventilating tasks, as well as for vacuum applications. Manufactured with brass or stainless steel (316L) bodies and available with G1/8, G1/4 ports and sub-base connections, the 6027 valves are designed for gas handling, steam and water treatment applications. However, the valves are general-purpose types and can be used in all applications where the controlled media is not aggressive.

6027 series valves also combine higher performance with reduced energy consumption, resulting in lower costs for the user. This is achieved by using the latest coil technology and by integrating boosters that are extremely compact in design.

Booster benefits

The use of booster electronics offers several advantages: first, enhanced performance due to the ability to switch higher pressures; second, the technology provides energy saving via low-wattage operation; third, integrated diagnostic functions for fast fault detection; and fourth, the very small size of the boosters delivers exceptionally high flow rates from a compact package. This feature is complemented by the overall design of the push-over solenoid coil system, with the modular design offering the flexibility for individual valve mounting, or as a block on a multiple manifold.

In addition to optimising the operating costs of an installation, the transparent structure of the 6027 range offers planning-related benefits. The modular system enables users to select, quickly and easily, the right combination of coil and housing to meet the exact performance characteristics of a system.

Furthermore, the 6027 range can also be tailored to specific user requirements. This could be in respect of housing materials (stainless steel or brass), electrical connections (DIN plugs or cables), different subbase housings, alternative coil and seal materials, and non-standard port connections and voltages. Note that Burkert also offers a comprehensive range of complementary high-performance components that can be used with the type 6027 valves for fast integration into machines and manifolds.

The 6027 series consists of three construction sizes: Mini AC07 coil (20mm), Small AC10 coil (32 and 40mm) and Compact AC19 coil (42mm). The coils are IP65-rated (with cable plug) and are suitable for use on 24V DC, 24V/50Hz or 230V/50Hz supplies. The operating temperature range is from -10 to +180degC.
