External Vacuum Controller
External Vacuum Controller VZP
Small in size and lightweight. External Vacuum Controller with bundled wiring dedicated to manifold mount.
Advantages
Dedicated to manifolds with bundled wiring.
Small in size and lightweight. External Vacuum Controller with bundled wiring dedicated to manifold mount.
Wiring for supply valve and air release valve is effectively concentrated in one bundle.
The concentrated wiring contributes to time saving.
Realized energy saving by holding down the valve power consumption to 0.55W.
A rich variety of pressure sensor is offered to meet the needs of a wide range of applications.
Since the number of manifold can be increased and decreased as required, it is possible to quickly respond to any change in specifications.
Push-in fitting or female thread is selectable for vacuum port to fit a piping requirement.

Detailed Safety Instructions
Warning
1.All screws must be tightened to the correct torque referring to the instructions. The tightening torque of the solenoid valve is given in "How to install and uninstall Mounting Unit". Failure to tighten to the correct torque may result in air leaks, product detachment and damage to parts of the product.
Caution
1.When mounting the each unit on the manifold base, remove and clean any deposits on the seal area and secure it with screws. Read the "Safety Rules for Use" in the instructions carefully before use.
2.When wiring Sub-D connector and Flat Cable connector, refer to the electric circuit diagram in the instructions.
3.The vacuum performance may deteriorate or problems may occur depending on the operating conditions, be sure to understand the "Safety Rules for Use".
Frequently Asked Questions for External Vacuum Controller Series
VUS011-NW and FVXS-DW-1 are not the type of the product itself, but the type of "sensor" installed in the product. The official model code of the product is laser marked (or labeled) on the body. FVUS011-** is the sensor for Vacuum Generator VK, and FVXS-** is the sensor for Vacuum Generator VX (External Vacuum Controller VXP / VXPT).
The type of our vacuum generator complex type (External Vacuum Controller) starts with "V". (VG ..., VQ ... etc.)
The sensor model code may start with FV ... and may be written as [PRESSURE SWITCH].
The sensor model code is described only in the specifications with a sensor.
Both types indicate the valve position when the valve is unactuated. (normal position).
Normally closed type (N. C.)
Normal position is closed, covering a valve . When the valve is actuated, or electricity flows, the valve opens.
Normally open type (N. O.)
Normal position is open, uncovering a valve. When the valve is actuated, or electricity flows, the valve closes.
With the valve unactuated, the entrance leads to the exit.
There are two ways of measuring pressure, absolute pressure and gauge pressure.
Absolute pressure
Absolute pressure is zero-referenced against a perfect vacuum.
It is commonly used to measure flow rate.
When indicated, "abs" is inserted following the unit, for example 10 kPa abs.
Gauge pressure
Gauge pressure is zero-referenced against ambient air pressure.
It indicate how much pressure per １cm2 is against the ambient air pressure. It is commonly used for indication of manometer. When the pressure is over the ambient air pressure, it is called "positive pressure" and when it is under the ambient air pressure, it is called "negative pressure."
