Creating pressure zones and
separating exhaust air
With the MPA, pressure zones
with different working
pressures can be easily
created.
A pressure zone can be created
by separating the internal
supply ducts between the
sub-bases, with a
corresponding separating seal
or via a separator integrated
into the sub-base (code I)
Compressed air supply and
exhaust via the supply plate.
Free positioning of the supply
plates and separating seals in
MPA with CPX and MPM
(multiple connector plate)
Separating seals integrated
ex works as per the order,
differences can be indicated
via the coding system for
assembling valve terminals
MPA with CPX terminal
connection
Example of pressure zones
Up to 8 pressure zones
possible with MPA and CPX
Further examples of
compressed air supply and pilot
air supply
External pilot air supply,
flat plate silencer
Internal pilot air supply,
ducted exhaust air
External pilot air supply,
ducted exhaust air
Reliable exhausting of valves or
pressure zones
If used together with the MS6-SV
valve, specific areas can be
exhausted safely whilst the
pressure is retained for specific
valves or pressure zones. This is
a common requirement for
protective circuits.
Pressure zones for valve terminal type 32 MPA
The illustration shows an
example of how three pressure
zones are built up and connected
with separating seals, with
external pilot air supply.
