5-2 Double Valves with CROSSMIRROR Sensing

Product catalog summary
Introduction
ROSS has developed advanced safety technology for pneumatically controlled presses, featuring the 5/2-way double valves with CROSSMIRROR® sensing for enhanced safety in controlling cylinders or rotary drives.
Product Description
The ROSS 5/2-way double valve includes two solenoid pilot valves with crossflow channels for synchronized movement, ensuring high safety standards. It features a check valve to trap downstream air and a two-way valve to prevent sudden cylinder movement.
Specifications
- Design: Metal-to-metal spool-and-sleeve, pressure-operated, air and spring returned.
- Operation: Solenoid-operated air-piloted valves, 3/2-way-spring-return.
- Media: Compressed air, dehydrated, filtered (5 µm), lubricated or unlubricated.
- Operating Pressure: 2.5 to 10 bar.
- Temperature Range: 4°C to 50°C.
- Mounting Orientation: Preferably vertical.
- Monitoring: Dynamically, cyclically, internally.
- Standard Voltages: Various options including 24 V DC and 230 V 50 Hz.
Model Numbers and Dimensions
Various models are available with detailed dimensions for mounting interfaces and sub-base assemblies.
Replacement Parts
Lists replacement parts for valves with and without pressure switches, including pressure switches, connector sockets, springs, and seal kits.
Flow Characteristics and Valve Response Times
Details kv-values for normal and abnormal functions and response times for different pressures and valve models.
General Information
The pressure switch unit is optional and signals malfunctions, preventing new valve cycles until resolved. The CROSSMIRROR® double valve is self-monitoring for safety through synchronized solenoid control signals.
Cautions
Installation should be by trained personnel. Air supply lines must meet safety regulations, and efficient air preparation is necessary. Silencers and electrical piloting must comply with safety standards.
Specifications and Features
The valves are designed for pneumatic cylinder applications with features like a self-contained dynamic monitoring system and stainless steel spool valve construction.
Operating Instructions
Details procedures for pressure failure and functional tests. Maintenance and testing should be conducted annually by trained personnel.
Maintenance and Repair
Maintenance should be performed by trained individuals using original ROSS parts. Repairs should be documented in the machine operation documentation.
Pre-Installation and Service
Ensure the electrical supply is off and the pneumatic system is exhausted before servicing. Use only ROSS parts for repairs.
Filtration and Lubrication
Install a 5-micron filter to clean the air supply. Use compatible lubricants to avoid damage to valve components.
Safety and Cautions
Do not restrict air flow in supply lines or exhaust ports. Double valves in hazardous applications should have a monitoring system.
Warranty
ROSS products are warranted to be free of defects for one year from purchase, covering repair, replacement, or refund.
Applications and Operation
The Series 77 5/2 CrossMirror® valve is used in applications requiring control reliability, such as two-hand control and pinch point applications.
Overview
This document provides technical specifications and operational guidelines for ROSS Controls' pneumatic double valves, designed for safety applications.
Operational Guidelines
If abnormal operation occurs, the valve resets once both pilot signal ports are de-pressurized.
Pressure Switch
Valves with model numbers ending in '1' include a pressure switch for user feedback.
Ordering Information
Model numbers and specifications for various valve sizes are provided.
Accessories
Service kits and electrical connectors are available for maintenance and installation.
Company Information
Contact details for ROSS Controls' global offices are provided for customer service and technical support.
Warranty and Cautions
Standard ROSS warranty and cautions apply.
