Different input and output modules as well as valve terminals can be connected. The maximum length of the CP string extension is 10 metres, which means that the extension modules can be mounted directly on-site. All of the required electrical signals are trans mitted via the CP cable, which in turn means that no further installation is needed on the extension module. The CP string interface offers: - 32 input signals - 32 output signals for output modules 24 V DC or solenoid coils - Logic and sensor supply for the input modules - Load voltage supply for the valve terminals - Logic supply for the output modules � **Internet: www.festo.com/catalogue/...** 2016/09 – Subject to change 5 -U- **Type discontinued Available up until 2019** ## **Valve terminals MPA-F** Peripherals overview ## **Modular pneumatic components** The modular design of the MPA-F facilitates maximum flexibility right from the planning stage and offers maximum ease of servicing during operation. The system consists of manifold blocks and valves. The manifold blocks are screwed together and thus form the support system for the valves. **==> picture [118 x 60] intentionally omitted <==** They contain the connection ducts for supplying compressed air to and vent ing from the valve terminal as well as the working lines for the pneumatic drives for each valve. **==> picture [112 x 81] intentionally omitted <==** Each manifold block is connected to the next using three screws. Individual terminal sections can be isolated and further manifold blocks inserted by loosening these screws. This ensures that the valve terminal can be rapidly and reliably extended. **==> picture [54 x 65] intentionally omitted <==** ## **Modular electrical peripherals** The manner in which the valves are Serial linking facilitates the following: actuated differs according to whether � Transmission of switching you are using a multi-pin terminal or information fieldbus terminal. � High valve density The MPA-F with CPX interface is based � Compact design on the internal bus system of the CPX � Position-based diagnostics and uses this serial communication system for all solenoid coils and a range of electrical input and output functions. ## MPA-F with electrical peripherals CPX **==> picture [81 x 58] intentionally omitted <==** - Separate voltage supply for valves � CPX-FEC as autonomous controller - � Flexible conversion without address with access via Ethernet and web shifting server - � Transmission of status, parameter and diagnostic data � Internet: cpx Modularity with electrical peripherals CPX **==> picture [39 x 40] intentionally omitted <==** � **Internet: www.festo.com/catalogue/...** Subject to change – 2016/09 6 -U- **Type discontinued Available up until 2019** ## **Valve terminals MPA-F** Peripherals overview ## **Valve terminal pneumatics** - The manifold blocks are either � Valve positions for two solenoid � Valve positions for one solenoid prepared for: coils can be equipped with any coil can only be equipped with � 2 or 4 valves with one solenoid coil valve or a blanking plate. valves of this type (e.g. 5/2-way � 2 or 4 valves with two solenoid valve, single solenoid). - 2 or 4 valves with two solenoid coils **==> picture [478 x 427] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> aC aD<br>aB<br>aJ<br>aE<br>9<br>8<br>aA<br>5<br>4<br>3<br>6<br>7<br>aF<br>aG<br>2<br>aF<br>aH<br>aI<br>1 aF<br>bJ<br>bA<br>bB<br>bC<br>bD aF<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> � **Internet: www.festo.com/catalogue/...** 2016/09 – Subject to change 7 -U- **Type discontinued Available up until 2019** ## **Valve terminals MPA-F** Peripherals overview |**Valve terminal pneumatics**||| |---|---|---| |Designation|Brief description|�**Page/Internet**| |1<br>Electronics module|For connectingMPA1 or MPA2 valves|53| |2<br>Regulatorplate|Width 10 mm|51| |3<br>Solenoid valve|Width 10 mm|50| |4<br>Cover cap for manual override|Conversion from detenting/non-detenting to non-detenting or covered|–| |5<br>Blanking plate|For unused valveposition (vacantposition), width 10 mm|54| |6<br>Verticalpressure shut-offplate|The relevant solenoid valve can be switched to unpowered and changed duringoperation|51| |7<br>Electrical interlinkingmodule|For fieldbus connection|53| |8<br>Exhaust plate|For ducted exhaust air (port 3/5 combined)|54| |9<br>Exhaustplate|For ducted exhaust air (port 3/5 separate)|54| |aJ<br>Flatplate silencer|–|55| |aA<br>Mountingbracket|Optional for valve terminal mounting|53| |aB<br>Regulatorplate|Size 20 mm|51| |aC<br>Solenoid valve|Size 20 mm|50| |aD<br>Blanking plate|For unused valveposition (vacantposition), width 20 mm|54| |aE<br>H-rail mounting|–|53| |aF<br>Fittings|–|54| |aG<br>Right-hand end plate|–|52| |aH<br>Manifold block|For two valve locations, width 20 mm|52| |aI<br>Separatingseal|For manifold block|54| |bJ<br>Supply plate|–|54| |bA<br>Pressure sensor|–|52| |bB<br>Electrical supply plate|For additional power supply for large valve terminals (only with fieldbus)|52| |bC<br>Electrical interlinkingmodule|For multi-pinplugconnection|53| |bD<br>Manifold block|For four valve locations, width 10 mm|50| � **Internet: www.festo.com/catalogue/...** Subject to change – 2016/09 8 -U- **Type discontinued Available up until 2019** ## **Valve terminals MPA-F** Peripherals overview ## **Valve terminal with multi-pin plug connection** - Order code: MPA-F valve terminals with multi-pin � 33P-… for the pneumatic plug connection can be expanded by components up to 24 solenoid coils. - 33E-… for the electrical components - The multi-pin plug connection is de signed as a removable 25-pin Sub-D connection to IP65.

All valves are equipped with patented sealing sys tem which facilitates efficient sealing, a broad pressure range and long service life. They have a pneumatic pilot control for optimising perform ance. Air is supplied by means of pilot air supply. Sub-base valves can be quickly replaced since the tubing connectors remain on the manifold block. This design is also particularly flat. Irrespective of the valve function there are sub-base valves with one solenoid coil (single solenoid) or with two sole noid coils (double solenoid or two single solenoid valves in one housing). ## **Constructional design** Valve replacement Extension The valves are attached to the metal replaced. The mechanical sturdiness Blanking plates can be replaced by manifold block using two screws, of the manifold block guarantees valves at a later date. The dimensions, which means that they can be easily excellent long-term sealing. mounting points and existing pneu matic installations remain unchanged during this process. The valve code (M, MS, MU, J, N, NS, NU, K, KS, KU, H, HS, HU, B, G, E, X, W, D, DS, I) is located on the front of the valve beneath the manual override. |**/2-way valve**|**/2-way valve**||| |---|---|---|---| |ode<br>Circu|it symbol|Width|Description| |||[mm]|| |||10,<br>20|�Single solenoid<br>�Pneumatic spring return<br>�Reversible<br>�Operating pressure –0,9…+10 bar| |S||10,<br>20|�Single solenoid<br>�Mechanical spring return<br>�Reversible<br>�Operating pressure –0,9…+8 bar| |U||10|�Single solenoid<br>�Polymer poppet valve<br>�Mechanical spring return<br>�Reversible<br>�Operating pressure –0,9…+10 bar| |||10,<br>20|�Double solenoid<br>�Reversible<br>�Operating pressure –0,9…+10 bar| � **Internet: www.festo.com/catalogue/...** 2016/09 – Subject to change 11 -U- **Type discontinued Available up until 2019** ## **Valve terminals MPA-F** Key features – Pneumatic components |**2x 3/2-way valve**|**2x 3/2-way valve**|||| |---|---|---|---|---| |Code|Circuit symbol||Width|Description| ||||[mm]|| |N|||10,<br>20|�Single solenoid<br>�Normally open<br>�Pneumatic spring return<br>�Operating pressure 3 … 10 bar| |NS|||10,<br>20|�Single solenoid<br>�Normally open<br>�Mechanical spring return<br>�Reverse operation<br>�Operating pressure –0.9 … +8 bar| |NU|||10|<br>�Single solenoid<br>�Polymer poppet valve<br>�Normally open<br>�Mechanical spring return<br>�Reverse operation<br>�Operating pressure –0.9 … +10 bar| |K|||10,<br>20|�Single solenoid<br>�Normally closed<br>�Pneumatic spring return<br>�Operating pressure 3 … 10 bar| |KS|||10,<br>20|�Single solenoid<br>�Normally closed<br>�Mechanical spring return<br>�Reverse operation<br>�Operating pressure –0.9 … +8 bar| |KU|||10|�Single solenoid<br>�Polymer poppet valve<br>�Normally closed<br>�Mechanical spring return<br>�Reverse operation<br>�Operating pressure –0.9 … +10 bar| |H|||10,<br>20|�Single solenoid<br>�Normal position<br>– 1x closed<br>– 1x open<br>�Pneumatic spring return<br>�Operating pressure 3 … 10 bar| |HS|||10,<br>20|�Single solenoid<br>�Normal position<br>– 1x closed<br>– 1x open<br>�Mechanical spring return<br>�Reverse operation<br>�Operating pressure –0.9 … +8 bar| |HU|||10|�Single solenoid<br>�Polymer poppet valve<br>�Normal position<br>– 1x closed<br>– 1x open<br>�Mechanical spring return<br>�Reverse operation<br>�Operating pressure –0.9 … +10 bar| � **Internet: www.festo.com/catalogue/...** Subject to change – 2016/09 12 -U- **Type discontinued Available up until 2019** ## **Valve terminals MPA-F** Key features – Pneumatic components |**5/3-way valve**|||| |---|---|---|---| |Code|Circuit symbol|Width|Description| |||[mm]|| |B||10,<br>20|�Mid-position pressurised1)<br>�Mechanical spring return<br>�Reverse operation<br>�Operating pressure –0.9 … +10 bar| |G||10,<br>20|�Mid-position closed1)<br>�Mechanical spring return<br>�Reverse operation<br>�Operating pressure –0.9 … +10 bar| |E||10,<br>20|�Mid-position exhausted1)<br>�Mechanical spring return<br>�Reverse operation<br>�Operating pressure –0.9 … +10 bar| - 1) If neither solenoid coil is energised, the valve moves to its mid-position by means of spring force.

The duct and supply cross sections of the MPA-F are extremely effectively sized. Additional supply plates are not generally required. The main supply to the valve ter minal is located on the pneumatic interface, which links the electrical and the pneumatic parts. Additional provision is made for a number of supply plates. Venting is either via flat plate silencers or common ports for ducted exhaust. These vents are located on the pneumatic interface as well as on the supply plates. The exhaust air is always vented via port 82/84 on the right-hand end plate. Supply plate Pneumatic interface with integrated pressure sensor The pneumatic interface is available in a version with integrated pressure sensor for duct 1. The display shows the numerical value for the monitored pressure. The LEDs “psi” and “bar” indicate the pressure value unit. Three further LEDs indicate whether the applied pressure exceeds, conforms to or falls below the setpoint value. You can parameterise the pressure sensor via the PLC or the handheld device (CPX-MMI) from Festo. � **Internet: www.festo.com/catalogue/...** 2016/09 – Subject to change 21 -U- **Type discontinued Available up until 2019** ## **Valve terminals MPA-F** Key features – Pneumatic components ## **Compressed air supply and venting** Work air supply **Power supply module with exhaust plate** Exhaust duct 3 and duct 5 separate Exhaust duct 3/5 common **Pneumatic interface with left-hand end plate** with venting via flat plate silencer, duct 3/5 common The valve terminal MPA-F can be supplied with pressure at one or more points. This is a reliable way of ensuring that all functional compo nents will always offer good performance, even with large-scale extensions. The valve terminal is supplied via the left-hand end plate or power supply modules. Exhaust port 3/5 is either vented via silencers or ports for ducted exhaust air on the power supply modules and on the left-hand end plate. ## Pilot air supply The port for the pilot air supply (port 12/14) is always on the righthand end plate. The ports differ for the following types of pilot air supply: - Internal - External ## **Internal pilot air supply** Internal pilot air supply can be selected if the required working pressure is between 3 and 8 bar. This is done by setting the pilot air supply in the right-hand end plate to this operating mode via a selector switch. The pilot air is branched from port 1 using an internal connection. Port 12/14 must be sealed using a blanking plug. ## **External pilot air supply** If the supply pressure is less than 3 bar or greater than 8 bar, you must operate your MPA-F valve terminal with external pilot air supply. This is done by feeding the pilot air supply via port 12/14 on the righthand end plate. Port 12/14 is equipped with fittings for this pur pose. The selector switch must be set to the appropriate operating mode. Note -H- If a gradual pressure build-up is required in the system by means of a soft-start valve, then external pilot air should be selected whereby the pilot pressure is already applied at the point of switch-on. ## Right-hand end plate with selector switch ## **Internal pilot air supply** ## **External pilot air supply** For end plates with selector switch, the outgoing direction of the ports is to the front of the valve terminal.

Festo valves and cylinders are de signed so that, if used as designated, they will not require additional lu brication and will still achieve a long service life. The quality of compressed air down stream from the compressor must correspond to that of unlubricated compressed air. If possible, do not operate all of your system equipment with lubricated compressed air. The lubricators should, where possible, always be installed directly upstream of the actuator used. Unsuitable additional oil and an ex cessive oil content in the compressed air reduce the service life of the valve terminal. Use Festo special oil OFSW-33 or the alternatives listed in the Festo catalogue (as specified in DIN 51524 HLP32; basic oil viscosity 32 CST at 40 °C). ## Bio-oils When using bio-oils (oils which are based on synthetic or native ester, e.g. rapeseed oil methyl ester), the maximum residual oil content of 0.1 mg/m[3] must not be exceeded (see ISO 8573-1 Class 2). ## Mineral oils When using mineral oils (e.g. HLP oils to DIN 51524, parts 1 through 3) or similar oils based on poly-alphaolefins (PAO), the maximum residual oil content of 5 mg/m[3] must not be exceeded (see ISO 8573-1 Class 4). A higher residual oil content irrespec tive of the compressor oil cannot be permitted, as the basic lubricant would be flushed out over time. � **Internet: www.festo.com/catalogue/...** 2016/09 – Subject to change 39 -U- **Type discontinued Available up until 2019** ## **Valve terminals MPA-F** Technical data -MFlow rate MPAF1: Up to 360 l/min MPAF2: Up to 900 l/min -KValve width MPAF1: 10 mm MPAF2: 20 mm -PVoltage 24 V DC |**General technical data**<br>Type<br>MPAF-MPM-VI<br>MPAF-FB-VI|**General technical data**<br>Type<br>MPAF-MPM-VI<br>MPAF-FB-VI|**General technical data**<br>Type<br>MPAF-MPM-VI<br>MPAF-FB-VI| |---|---|---| |Valve terminal design|Modular, valve sizes can be mixed|| |Electrical actuation|Multi-pinplug|Fieldbus| |Actuation type|Electric|| |Nominal voltage<br>[V DC]|24|| |Operatingvoltage range<br>[V DC]|18 … 30|| |Max. no of valvepositions|24|64| |Max. no. ofpressure zones|7|17| |Valve size<br>[mm]|10, 20|| |Pilot air supply|Internal or external|| |Lubrication|Life-time lubrication, PWIS-free (free ofpaint-wettingimpairment substances)|| |Type of mounting|Wall mounting|| ||On H-rail to EN 60715|| |Mounting position|Any|| ||Horizontal only (H-rail)|| |Manual override|Non-detenting, detenting, blocked|| |Protection class to EN 60529|IP65 (for all types of signal transmission in assembled state)|| |||| |Pneumatic connections||| |Pneumatic connection|Via manifold block|| |Supply port<br>1|QS-G½-12, QS-G½-16, QS-1/2-1/2-I-U-M|| |Exhaustport<br>3/5|Via flatplate silencer or exhaustplate|| |Working ports<br>2/4|Dependent on the connection type selected<br>MPAF1: QSM-M7-6-I, QSM-M7-4-I, QSM-M7-3/16-I-U-M, QSM-M7-1/4-I-U-M<br>MPAF2: QS-G¼-8-I, QSG¼-10-I, QS-1/4-5/16-I-U-M, QS-1/4-3/8-I-U-M|| |Pilot airport<br>12/14|QS-G¼-8-I, QS-G¼-10-I, QS-1/4-5/16-I-U-M, QS-1/4-3/8-I-U-M|| |Pilot exhaust airport<br>82/84|QS-G¼-8-I, QS-G¼-10-I, QS-1/4-5/16-I-U-MI, QS-1/4-3/8-I-U-M|| |Pressure compensation port|With ducted exhaust air: via port 82/84<br>With flat plate silencer: venting to atmosphere|| Note -HNote possible restrictions for the IP protection class > ATEX conformity declaration **Internet: www.festo.com/catalogue/...** Subject to change – 2016/09 40 -U- **Type discontinued Available up until 2019** ## **Valve terminals MPA-F** Technical data |**Operating and environmental conditions**|**Operating and environmental conditions**||| |---|---|---|---| |Operatingmedium||Compressed air accordingto ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4]|| |Note on operating/pilot medium||Lubricated operationpossible (in which case lubricated operation will always be required)|| |Operating pressure<br>[bar]||–0.9 … +10|| |Pilotpressure<br>[bar]||3 … 8|| |Ambient temperature<br>[°C]||–5 … +50|| |Temperature of medium<br>[°C]||–5 … +50|| |Storage temperature1)<br>[°C]||–20 … +40|| |Relative air humidityat 40 °C<br>[%]||90|| |1)<br>Long-term storage|||| |**Certifications1)**|||| |Type|**MPAF-MPM-VI**<br>**(multi-pin plug interface)**||**MPAF-FB-VI**<br>**(fieldbus interface)**| |Part number|**544398**||**544397**| |ATEX categoryforgas|II 3 G||| |Explosion ignition protection type<br>for gas|Ex nA IIC T4 X Gc||| |ATEX temperature rating<br>[°C]|–5 ≤ Ta ≤ +50||| |CE marking<br>(see declaration of conformity)|To EU EMC Directive2)||| ||To EU Explosion Protection Directive (ATEX)||–| - 1) Interface versions that are not listed do not have any of the listed certifications - 2) For information about the applicability of the component see the manufacturer’s EC declaration of conformity at: www.festo.com/sp � Certificates.
