VUVG-B10-P53C-ZT-F-1P3

Product information

Product Overview

The VUVG is Festo’s universal solenoid valve for individual connection — Festo describes it as newly designed on the inside, offering a combination of high flow rates and a compact design. The same family is used as an individual valve or grouped onto a valve terminal, which is why it is often specified as the standard workhorse valve in a machine that has a mix of single valves and manifolds. Electrical connection is made through an electrical connection box (E-box), and in-line valves can be used as individual valves or as manifold valves.

This page covers VUVG-B10-P53C-ZT-F-1P3 — Festo type code VUVG-B10-P53C-ZT-F-1P3, order number 566492. Everything below is taken from Festo’s own product data for this order number: the technical values, the category path, the GTIN and the lifecycle notice are all reproduced from the manufacturer’s page rather than paraphrased, so you can check them against Festo’s documentation before you buy.

Why Buyers Specify This Model

• High flow rate relative to its size (Festo’s own description of the family)
• Connection technology via an electrical connection box (E-box), which keeps wiring tidy and serviceable
• In-line valves can be used as individual valves or as manifold valves, so one family covers both layouts
• Wide function range: 5/2-way single and double solenoid, and 5/3-way with mid-position closed, exhausted or pressurised
• Piston spool design available with or without a sealing ring, and the range runs on 24 V DC coils
• Electrically and pneumatically actuated directional control valves
• Universal directional control valves

The order number and the type code both have to match. A single character in the type code can change the valve function, the cushioning or the connection, and it always changes the order number.

Lifecycle and Availability

Festo’s product page for this order number does not currently carry a discontinuation or successor notice, so we list it as a standard catalogue item. Availability is always confirmed against Festo’s stock at the time you order — we do not keep a stock figure on this page because it would be out of date the day it was written.

Official Documentation

Every figure on this page comes from Festo. Use the manufacturer’s own documents to verify it:

• Festo official product page — VUVG-B10-P53C-ZT-F-1P3 — the source of the technical values and the lifecycle notice above.
• Festo official series catalogue (PDF) — Festo’s own catalogue for this series, including the type code breakdown and the ordering data for every variant.

Ordering This Part

Before we quote, please confirm:

• the complete Festo type code, exactly as it appears on the drawing or the nameplate — not just the series name;
• the order number if you have it, so we can cross-check the code against Festo’s catalogue;
• the quantity and the delivery address;
• for cylinders, the stroke and the mounting style, because both are fields in the order code;
• for valves and sensors, the electrical connection and the voltage, because these are fields in the order code.

Send us a photograph of the nameplate if the code is hard to read — that is usually the fastest way to avoid shipping the wrong variant.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I read a VUVG order code such as VUVG-B10-M52-RZT-F-1P3?
In Festo’s type code the fields run: series (VUVG), electrical interface, size (B10 = size 10), valve function (M52 = 5/2-way, single solenoid), reset method, pilot air, manual override, pneumatic connection, exhaust, valve pilot control interface, nominal operating voltage, electrical connection and degree of protection. Every field changes the part number, so quote the whole code.

What is the difference between VUVG and VUVS?
Both are Festo universal solenoid valves. The VUVG is the compact high-flow range with E-box connection technology used for individual and manifold mounting; the VUVS is a separate, sturdy valve family. They are different products with different order codes and different accessories.

What does M52 versus B52 mean?
It is the valve function field: M52 is a 5/2-way valve, single solenoid (monostable) and B52 is a 5/2-way valve, double solenoid (bistable). A bistable valve holds its position if the electrical signal drops, which matters on machines that must not move after a power loss.

What does Z mean in the pilot air field?
In Festo’s type code the pilot air field is ‘Internal’ or ‘Z’ for external. External pilot air is required when the working pressure can fall below what the internal pilot needs, for example in vacuum or low-pressure duty.

Which coils and voltages are available?
Festo publishes 12 V DC, 24 V DC and 24 V AC/50-60 Hz among the options, plus 230 V AC versions. The voltage is a field in the order code, so confirm the code on your drawing before ordering.
