Festo
8161608
Soft-start valve VABF-S6-1-P5A4S2YE-G12-1T1L-PZ
Engineered with a 40 mm valve size, this Festo 8161608 industrial component features a piston gate valve structural design with a soft sealing principle and piloted internal pilot air supply. It operates via electrical actuation with a mechanical spring reset, supporting a negative overlap lap, non-reversible flow direction, and NC contact switching element function alongside detenting and self-resetting manual overrides. The unit provides pressurization and exhaust valve functions with a maximum positive test pulse with a 0 signal of 2000 µs and a maximum negative test pulse on a 1 signal of 1200 µs, while meeting vibration and shock resistance requirements under severity level 2.

Request a QuoteWhy no listed price?
Industrial and obsolete parts are priced per enquiry: the final price depends on available stock, condition, quantity, and your delivery destination, so a fixed list price would be misleading. Request a quote and we confirm current pricing, lead time, and sourcing options — including hard-to-find and discontinued Festo references — within one business day.
