Emerson addresses growing demand for higher airflow in automation
Across factory automation, packaging, water treatment, and automotive manufacturing, machine builders are facing a familiar challenge: higher airflow demands in increasingly compact machine designs. Moving to a larger valve platform can solve the airflow problem but introduces new complexity - different interfaces, different configurations, and disruption to established machine architectures. Emerson has developed the AVENTICS XV05 High Flow Valve System to address this gap directly.
Now available globally, the XV05 High Flow is an extension of the established AVENTICS XV platform - the same architecture, the same electrical connection options, the same communication protocols, and the same modularity that machine builders already rely on. The difference is flow capacity: up to 1,200 L/min, compared to 1,000 L/min for the standard XV05.
Larger ports and dedicated high-flow fittings deliver the increased airflow where applications demand it, while compatibility with the standard XV05 means High Flow and standard modules can be combined within a single valve system.
The XV05 High Flow is available in front-, top-, and bottom-ported configurations, giving design engineers the flexibility to integrate higher airflow capacity into new and existing machine layouts without redesigning the broader pneumatic architecture.
Applications well suited to the new variant include pilot valve systems for process valves in water treatment, package molding equipment, slicing and cutting units requiring high actuator force, cleaning systems, pneumatically driven winches in oil and gas operations, and automotive manufacturing equipment with high airflow requirements.
