For electrical isolation of operating voltage:
• Use only power units which guarantee reliable
electrical isolation of the operating voltage as per
IEC/DIN EN 60204-1. Observe also the general
requirements for PELV power circuits as per IEC/DIN
EN 60204-1.
Switch power packs are permitted, providing they
guarantee reliable isolation in accordance with
EN 60950/VDE 0805.

• Installation and commissioning may only be
performed in accordance with the operating
instructions and by qualified personnel.
1 Application and function
The VPPE-... is designed to control pressure proportion-
ately to a specified setpoint value.
Replacement of manually adjustable pressure regulators
by remotely, electrically adjustable regulators, to have
different machine parameters available quickly and auto-
matically, for example.

3 Conditions of use
General conditions for the correct and safe use of the
product, which must be observed at all times:
• Observe the specified limits (e.g. for pressures,
7
temperatures and electric voltage).
• Make sure there is a supply of correctly prepared
8
compressed air in accordance with the specifications on
the medium Technical specifications.
• Please observe the prevailing ambient conditions.
9
• Please comply with national and local safety laws and
regulations.
aJ
• Remove all transport packing, such as protective wax,
aA
foils, caps, cardboard boxes (with exception of the
covers in the pneumatic connections).
The individual materials can be stored in containers for
recycling purposes.
• Slowly pressurize the complete system.
This will prevent uncontrolled movements from
occurring.
• Note the warnings and instructions
7
– on the product
– in these operating instructions.
• Use the product in its original state without undertaking
8
any modifications.

4.1 Mechanical
• Handle the VPPE-... with care so that the electrical
aJ
connection is not damaged.
Such damage reduces the operational reliability.
• Make sure there is sufficient space for the cable
connection and tube couplings. This avoids breakage of
the connecting cable.
• Put the VPPE-... as close as possible to the consuming
device. This leads to improved control precision annd
shorter response times.
• Push two screws (M4) into the side mounting holes aB
or the front mounting holes aA (see Fig. 1),
max. torque: 2 Nm.
• Fasten the VPPE-... in the intended location.
4.2 Pneumatic
• Remove the covers on the compressed air connections.
• Attach the pneumatic tubing to the following connec-
tions (see Fig. 1):
– Supply port (1)
1
– Pressure output (2)
9
• Install a silencer at venting (3) (item aJ ) or remove the
exhaust with ducted tubing.

– Self-cutting screw
– Flat plug
– Contact disc
• Connect the circuitry of the VPPE-... as show in the
circuit diagram. Preferably use cable from Festo.

• The VPPE-... interprets setpoint signals less than
0.1 V as 0 V and setpoint signals less than 4.16 mA
as 4 mA. In this case, the output pressure is set to
0 bar through activation of the ventilation valve.
As a result, a clear valve condition is assured at
w = 0.
• Safety position:
In case of setpoint cable break of the voltage variant,
the output pressure is set to 0 bar. In case of setpoint
cable break of the current variant, or in case of loss
of power supply, the output pressure remains uncon-
trolled. Leakage produces a change in pressure in the
long term.
• Connect the VPPE-... with a setpoint signal.
The VPPE has a so-called "differential input". The
setpoint signal is applied to the contact Pin 2 and Pin 4,
whereby the lower potential must be connected to
contact Pin 2 and the higher potential to contact Pin 4.
Contact Pin 2 (– setpoint) can be connected to contact
Pin 3 (GND).
• Apply current to the VPPE-... with direct current
(Supply voltage U
= 24 VDC ±10 %).
V
• Pressurise the VPPE-... with a supply pressure (p1) at
least 1 bar higher than the maximum desired output
pressure. A proportional output pressure (p2) is set
automatically.
The following output pressure range is then assigned to
the setpoint signal range 0 ... 10 V or 4 ... 20 mA:
