B and R's XV connection concept offers the possibility of integrating pneumatic valves of most well-known manufacturers directly into the system.
The newly developed XV connection concept makes it possible to add valve manifolds from Buerkart, Festo, Bosch Rexroth, Norgren, SMC and many other manufacturers to an already networked environment without any problems and with minimal configuration effort.
The connection is made directly using a 25-pin connector.
This compact solution for simple integration of pneumatic control directly into an automation system offers considerable space-saving possibilities for the user.
It can also significantly reduce the amount of wiring required, especially for configurations with large numbers of valves.
However, smaller module connections can also benefit from cost savings thanks to the reduced number of channels for the valve manifold connection.
