Electrically operated valves – Series ICKN-55

Robustness and precision for demanding environments

The ICKN-55 series from AIRTEC offers electrically actuated valves that have been specially developed for applications requiring precise and reliable operation under extreme conditions. With valve designs such as 3/2-way, 5/2-way and 5/3-way valves, this series is ideal for controlling pneumatic systems and actuators.

The valves have connection options in G1/4 or Namur and a nominal width of 6 mm, which enables flexible integration into a wide range of systems. They are designed for temperature ranges from -30°C to +80°C and offer protection class IP 65, which guarantees reliable protection against dust and water. The ICKN-55 series supports DC voltages of 12 V and 24 V, which ensures easy integration into modern control systems.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions about solenoid valves, applications and customised solutions from AIRTEC.

When is an electrically actuated valve the right choice over a pneumatically actuated one?

Electrically actuated valves are ideal for use in electrical control architectures. Solenoid valves integrate directly into PLC systems. They require no separate pneumatic control signal and allow centralized control via fieldbus or a multi-pin connector. If, on the other hand, no power supply is available, or operation is required in hazardous (Ex) areas without electrical certification, pneumatic actuation is the simpler choice.

How do ATEX versions of electrical valves differ from those of pneumatic valves?

With pneumatic valves, the ATEX version often differs little in design from the standard valve. With electrical valves, the ATEX version must always feature a specially certified solenoid, for example an encapsulated coil in which all live parts are fully enclosed. ATEX solenoid valves must therefore be ordered explicitly as such.

Are UL/CSA-approved versions available?

Yes. For export to North America, AIRTEC solenoid valves can be equipped with UL/CSA-approved solenoid coils.

What compressed air quality is required for the electrically actuated valves?

All AIRTEC solenoid valves are rated for compressed air according to ISO 8573-1:2010, Class 7:2:4 (filtered, oil-free, and dried). The pressure dew point must be at least 10 °C below the lowest ambient temperature encountered. The requirements are identical to those of the pneumatically actuated series.
