Compressed air systems may contain lubricants
or contaminants which can attack materials
utilized in the manufacture of these products and
cause failure. The user in cautioned to be certain
that his compressed air system is fully compatible
with the materials utilized in these products.

High Energy Level – Compressed air systems
contain high levels of stored energy. Any attempt
to connect, disconnect or repair these products
when a system is under pressure can lead to
serious personal injury. Do not attempt to install,
operate or repair these products unless you are
trained in the proper techniques for working on
fluid power systems, or are under competent
supervision.

Code Compliance – the user of these products is
cautioned to conform to all applicable electrical,
mechanical, and other codes in the installation
and operation of these products.

Failure Modes – Through misuses, wear or
malfunction, these valves and related
accessories can fail in modes which can
simultaneously pressurize all ports to the highest
applied pressure level. They can also fail to shift
as expected upon the application or removal of
operator signals. These failure modes must be
considered in the use of these valves and related
accessories, and all appropriate safeguards to
prevent personal injury or property damage in the
event of such failure must be provided.

Repair and Conversion – Any time these valves
are disassembled for repair or conversion to a
different configuration, the reassembled valve or
accessory must be checked for leakage and
proper function prior to installation.

Electric Shock – To avoid electrical shock and the
possibility of serious or fatal injury, always
disconnect electrical power before servicing any
electrically operated valve.

INSTALLATION

Valve Exhaust

Adequately sized mufflers should be used in the
valve exhaust ports. Valves should net be
mounted with unprotected exhaust ports facing
upward. If exhaust is to be piped away, piping
should be installed horizontally or at a downward
angle from the valve to provide adequate
drainage and minimize the accumulation of
debris in the air line.

Pilot Supply

If the valve inlet pressure is less than the
specified minimum pilot pressure for the type of
solenoid operator used , and external pilot supply
must be provided.

mounted with unprotected exhaust ports facing
upward. If exhaust is to be piped away, piping
should be installed horizontally or at a downward
angle from the valve to provide adequate
drainage and minimize the accumulation of

Pilot Supply

If the valve inlet pressure is less than the
specified minimum pilot pressure for the type of
solenoid operator used , and external pilot supply
must be provided.

IM-5.4.314 (12/02)

Observe Rated Pressure Range

These spool valves are designed to operated
from vacuum to 145 psig (0 to 10 bar) with
proper pilot pressure. See Operating
Specification. Be sure valve has an adequate
supply flow and the tube or tube fittings do not
cause restrictions.

Observe Rated Temperature Range

The recommended temperature range for the air
flowing through the valve and for the ambient
temperature is between 14°F and 122°F (-10° to
50°C) for air and solenoid operated valves. Air
dew point should be less than the air temperature
for 14°F to 35°F (-10° to 2°C). Improper valve
action, or a shortening of valve life, can result if
these limits are exceeded.

Use a Filter and Lubricator

Dirt, scale, moisture, etc. are present in virtually
all compressed air systems and should be
removed continuously with an air line filter
located upstream of the valve. An air line
lubricator capable of lubricating at low as well as
high air flows should be installed as close as
possible to the valve downstream of the filter.
Non-detergent, petroleum-based oils with
sufficient fogging capability and an SAE Number
10, or lighter viscosity equivalent, are generally
compatible with the seals used in these valves.
Phosphate ester based fluids must never be used
in any part of the air system or seal damage will
result.

Solenoid Operators

Voltages should not vary more than plus 5% or
minus 15% of the voltage printed on the coil. For
example, a 120-volt coil will operated between
102 and 126 volts. At the time of installation, it
may be advisable to check voltage for
compatibility with solenoid coil.

Seal Compatibility

V60-V62 Series seals are compatible with most
good quality O-ring lubricants, including:

DC BR-2+ grease (Dow Corning)
DC 44 grease (Dow Corning)
Magnalube g (Saunders Industries)
Non-detergent mineral based oils such as Mobil
DTE light oil.

V60-V62 Series seals are not compatible with
WD-40, commonly used de-icer fluids, or diester
based synthetic lubricants. Consult factory to
verify compatibility of lubricants or fluids not listed
above.

Warning

These products are intended for use in
industrial compressed air systems only. Do not
use these products where pressures and
temperatures can exceed those listed under
Specifications.

Before using these products with fluids other
than those specified, for non-industrial
applications, life-support systems, or other
applications not within published specifications,
consult Norgren.

Through misuse, age, or malfunction,
components used in fluid power systems can fail
in various modes. The system designer is warned
to consider the failure modes of all component
parts used in fluid power systems and to provide
adequate safeguards to prevent personal injury
or damage to equipment in the event of such
failure modes. System designers must provide

a warning to end users in the system
instructional manual if protection against a
failure mode cannot be adequately provided.

System designers and end users are
cautioned to review specific warnings found in
instruction sheets packed and shipped with these
products. System designers should also provide
for all OSHA requirements including Title 29 CFR

1910.147 Lockout/Tagout.

It should be recognized that warnings are valid
for any product, regardless of manufacturer, and
are not restricted to products manufactured by
Norgren. Norgren's reputation for product quality
and performance is well established. We feel we
have the additional obligation to provide
information or warnings to customers to assist
them in applying our products in a reasonable
and safe manner.
