system.
NOTICE!
It is only possible to determine whether the product is suitable for specific applic-
ations by also assessing further components of the subsystem.
3.3 Safety function
Single-acting valves
The safety function comprises acceptance of the initial position on request. The
request is implemented by removal of the operating pressure.
– Valves with NO control function: the valve opens completely and remains
open until operating pressure is applied.
– Valves with NC control function: the valve closes completely and remains
closed until operating pressure is applied.
Double-acting valves
The safety function comprises acceptance of the required position on request.
This requires an external power supply.

6.2 Function
The angle seat valve VZXA-...-K is an externally controlled 2/2-directional control
valve with piston drive. The valve seat is slanted approx. 40° toward the media
flow. To close the valve, the valve actuator using the piston rod presses the valve
disc into the valve seat in a force fit.
The supply of the operating medium is controlled by an external valve (usually
electrically actuated) that must also be integrated into the supply cable for the
drive.
The actuator can be rotated 360° around the valve body.
Flow over valve seat
– The valve is closed by spring force with the medium flow.
– Media pressure assists the closing of the valve.
– The valve is opened by operating pressure.
– Only suitable for gaseous media, because use of incompressible media
causes pressure surges in the piping.
Flow under valve seat
The valve is closed by spring force or by operating pressure against the media
flow.
– Media pressure assists the opening of the valve.
– In some designs media pressure that is too high or operating pressure that is
too low can result in the valve not closing completely.
Control function

Closed by spring force or by

7 Transport and storage
• For delivery of used products: Comply with all legal requirements for the
handling of hazardous substances and the transport of dangerous goods. For
returns to Festo 2 Safety.è
• Store the product in a cool, dry, UV-protected and corrosion-protected envir-
onment. Ensure that storage times are kept to a minimum.
8 Mounting and installation
Use fittings G max. SW14 exclusively with angle seat valves VZXA-…-K-46-….x
Requirements
– The piping is unpressurised and there is no medium flowing through it.
– The line ends are mounted.
– Connecting cables and fittings are clean.
Cleaning the valve
• Remove all transport packaging. The material used in the packaging has been
specifically chosen for its recyclability (exception: oil-impregnated paper =
residual waste).
Traces of residual grease may be evident on the product due to the production
process used.
• Clean the valve immediately before installation.
Installing the valve
WARNING!
Risk of injury due to slipping or falling objects.
The valve can weigh up to 5.75 kg, depending on the product version. Body parts
can be crushed. This could cause serious head injury in overhead installations.
• Secure the valve from falling or slipping with suitable equipment.
1. Bring the valve into its mounting position.
– Observe the flow direction. The permissible flow direction is marked on
the angle seat fitting by an arrow Fig.1, .è6
2. Connect the piping to the angle seat fitting.
– Tightening torque Tab. 6 Pipe connection tightening torqueè
3. Connect the operating medium line.
– Pneumatic connection (2): operating medium
– Pneumatic port (4): exhaust port for single-acting drives or operating
medium for double-acting actuators
4. For single-acting drives: mount the silencer in the exhaust port or use a
tubing connection for guided exhaust air.

9 Commissioning
WARNING!
Risk of injury from manipulation in the operating area of the angle seat valve.
Limbs can be cut or severed.
• Operate the angle seat valve only if it is fully mounted.
Requirements
– The valve is fully mounted and connected.
Checking operating conditions
1. Check operating conditions and limit values 16 Technical data.è
2. Check connection points for tightness.
3. Check compatibility of the devices in the system for maximum pressure (con-
sider pressure peaks). If necessary, adjust the application parameters.
Commissioning the valve with single-acting drives
1. Supply medium.
2. Slowly apply operating pressure to the valve. The operating pressure required
for reliable switching of the valve depends on the medium pressure
è 16.2 Technical data, pneumatic.
3. Function and direction control of the individual pneumatic drives.
Commissioning the valve with double-acting drives
1. Slowly apply operating pressure to the valve. The operating pressure required
for reliable switching of the valve depends on the medium pressure

2. Supply medium.
3. Function and direction control of the individual pneumatic drives.
10 Operation
WARNING!
Risk of injury from touching hot surfaces.
Angle seat fitting and actuator can become hot if the temperature of medium is
high. Severe burns are possible.
• Do not touch the angle seat valve during operation or immediately afterward.
• Comply with operating conditions.
• Comply with maintenance conditions 11 Maintenance.è
After longer idle times:
• Actuate the valve several times and check that it functions correctly.
11 Maintenance
WARNING!
Risk of injury from touching hot surfaces.
Angle seat fitting and actuator can become hot if the temperature of medium is
high. Severe burns are possible.
• Allow the angle seat valve to cool off before working on it.
• Check product regularly from the outside for leakage and function.
• Check function of the product regularly.
• Clean product regularly with commercial cleaning agents.
11.1 Proof test (Proof Test)
The proof test (Proof Test) consists of shutting the operating pressure off and on.
• Run the proof test once a year.
During the proof test, the safety of the application must be ensured.
1. Shut off operating pressure.
2. Check valve position.
ÄThe test is successful if the safe state was reached within the specified
time. For assessment of the safe state 3.3 Safety function.è
3. Slowly apply operating pressure to the valve.
ÄThe test is successful if the valve returns to its original position.
4. Check the valve externally (visual inspection).
ÄThe test is successful if no defect or leakage is detected.
5. Document test results.
