1 User instructionsEnglish

The MPA-S/MPA-F valve terminal has been designed ex­clusively for controlling pneumatic actuators. The maxi­mum values specified in the section “Technical specifica­tions” must be observed here. Detailed information can be

found in the Pneumatics Manual P.BE-MPA-... or P.BE-MPAF-...

Warning� Switch off the power supply before connecting or

disconnecting plugs (otherwise this could lead tofunctional damage).

� Use only power units which guarantee reliableelectrical isolation of the operating voltage as perIEC/DIN EN 60204-1 Observe also the generalrequirements for PELV power circuits as perIEC/DIN�EN�60204-1.

Please noteCommission only a valve terminal which has been fittedand wired completely.

2 Multipin connection

2.1 Multipin socket

CautionThe components of the valve terminal contain electros­tatically sensitive elements. The components will bedamaged if you touch the contact surfaces of the plugconnectors and if you do not observe the regulationsfor handling electrostatically sensitive components.

Long signal cables reduce the immunity to interference.Do not exceed the maximum permitted signal cablelength of 10 m.

Recommendation:Use the following 25-pin multipin socket with cable from

the Festo range of acessories for connecting the MPA valveterminal with multipin connection:

3 Controlling the valve terminal

Use a uniform method of control. Preferably, all controlsignals should be positive-switching (1-switching), other­wise all control signals negative-switching (0-switching).Mixed mode control is not permitted.

3.1 Address assignment of the valves

– Assign the addresses in ascending order without gaps(see example).

– Addess assignment does not depend on whetherblanking plates or valve plates are fitted.

– Depending on the electronic module, a valve locationoccupies the following number of addresses:

Number ofaddresses

Electronic module

MPA 1 MPA 2

one address VMPA1-MPM-EMM-4 VMPA2-MPM-EMM-2

two addresses VMPA1-MPM-EMM-8 VMPA2-MPM-EMM-4

– If an electronic module occupies 2 addresses, thefollowing applies:– pilot solenoid 14 occupies the lower-value address;– pilot solenoid 12 occupies the higher-value address.

Festo MPA...-MPM-VI 2017-12d English 7

Example of address assignment

CautionNote that addresses may be shifted if the valve terminalis extended at a later stage.

In the example an MPA valve terminal with the folllowingcomponents is addressed:

Components MPA 1 MPA 2

Sub-bases 2 (8 valve locations) 2 (4 valve locations)

Electronic module 1 VMPA1-MPM-EMM-81 VMPA1-MPM-EMM-4

1 VMPA2-MPM-EMM-41 VMPA2-MPM-EMM-2

For controlling the valves, each valve solenoid coil (referredto in the following as coil) is assigned to a certain pin of themultipin plug.
