Q1: What is the MPS-10 energy-saving pressure sensor?
A: MPS-10 is CONVUM's pressure sensor with built-in solenoid valve control for monitoring vacuum pressure and managing vacuum generation and blow-off operation.
Q2: What solenoid valves can the MPS-10 control?
A: It can control both the vacuum generation solenoid valve and the blow-off solenoid valve for energy-saving vacuum operation.
Q3: How is the MPS-10 different from a standard pressure sensor?
A: In addition to pressure sensing, it has built-in solenoid valve control circuits, so pressure monitoring and vacuum control can be integrated in one unit.
Q4: Why does the MPS-10 help save energy?
A: It monitors vacuum pressure and actuates the vacuum generation valve only when needed, which helps reduce air consumption.
Q5: What should be checked for MPS-10 wiring?
A: The PLC side uses one 5-wire cable, without separate wiring for the vacuum generation and blow-off valves, but actual wiring should still be checked against the cable and equipment specifications.
Q6: Does the MPS-10 provide dual outputs?
A: Yes. It includes a switch output and a DC 1–5 V analog output as standard for control and monitoring.
Q7: What applications is the MPS-10 suitable for?
A: It is suitable for vacuum pick-and-place, labeling and packaging modules, end-of-arm tooling, and vacuum systems that need both energy savings and simplified wiring. This application wording is based on the product function.
Q8: What should be confirmed before choosing the MPS-10?
A: It is recommended to confirm the power supply, wiring method, whether control of the vacuum generation and blow-off valves is needed, and whether the sensing and output requirements match the equipment.
