Proportional Technology


VSO – Thermally compensated
The VSO, Voltage Sensitive Orifice, is a miniature solenoid valve that controls the flow of gas in proportion to input current. You can drive the valve with either DC current or pulse width modulation and use closed loop feedback to deliver optimal system performance. Medical and analytical OEMs worldwide choose VSO as their preferred miniature proportional valve.

Features:
  1. Offers operating pressure up to 150 psig and a range of orifice sizes.
  2. Satisfies a 0.2 sccm leakage specification of He for 100 million life cycles and offers high repeatability.
  3. Provides computer-automated calibrations and full calibration traceability.
  4. Uses either DC current or pulse width modulation with closed loop feedback to deliver optimal system performance.
  5. Maintains ideal fl ow through thermal compensation.
  6. ROHS compliant
