Gasonics AWD-1-5 Pneumatic Solenoid Valve Manifold Harness

Product Description: This specific wiring harness connects the machine’s central controller to a manifold of pneumatic solenoid valves. It is a critical interface for the tool’s gas and vacuum control system. The AWD-1-5 typically routes 24VDC signals to actuate specific valves that control gas injection, chamber isolation, or venting.

Technical Specifications:

  • Type: Multi-pair Signal Cable for Pneumatics

Detailed content

  • Cores: 4 to 12 pairs of twisted conductors
  • Insulation: PVC or PUR
  • Connectors: DIN 43650 (Solenoid connectors) or Deutsch DT series
  • Voltage: 24VDC logic level
  • IP Rating: IP65 (dust and water resistant) for areas near the chamber

Functional Features:

  • Multi-valve Control: A single harness can control multiple valves (gas inlet, purge, vent) simultaneously.
  • Noise Immunity: Twisted pair construction reduces crosstalk between adjacent solenoid trigger lines.
  • Quick Disconnect: Allows the pneumatic block to be removed from the tool without cutting wires.
  • LED Indicator Compatibility: Often includes wires for valve status indicator LEDs.

Application Scenarios:

  • Gas Sequencing: Controlling the precise timing of gas flows (e.g., Oxygen followed by Argon).
  • Chamber Isolation: Actuating the main throttle valve and isolation valve during pump-down.
  • Emergency Venting: Connecting the fast-vent valve to the control system for rapid chamber depressurization.
  • Purge Cycles: Controlling nitrogen purge valves to ensure safety before maintenance.
