Norgren - VR valve islands, modular versatile and lightweight


Valve islands are often used to shorten assembly time and the connection of larger quantities of wires, and to reduce the errors that can occur in the process. Choosing and configuring a desired valve island is often not that easy. With the help of a user-friendly configurator from Norgren, this becomes child's play. The VR series in particular is extremely user-friendly and universally applicable.


Flexibility and modularity are greatly enhanced with the Norgren VR series

Valve islands are a collection of valves with various functions mounted on one base plate with a common electrical control. This way of collecting valves in one place reduces piping, connections and complexity. The VR series has further simplified this with the use of a simple plug-in design. This design combined with integrated pneumatic connectors as well as the modular sub-base makes the connection process easy. Moreover, it is possible to easily retrofit valves for maintenance and any modifications.


Plug and play

After going through the configurator, a unique configuration code follows, allowing Norgren to build the desired valve island with the selected protocol or multipin connection. After a functional test, the valve island, with a piece of din-rail if required, is delivered complete. Once with you, the customer, it is then just "Plug and Play".


Possibilities of the VR series

The VR10 and VR15 feature a ZnDC and ADC housing with an aluminium coil and NBR seals for a robust yet lightweight construction in IP40 or IP65.  The VR series has flow ranges that, depending on valve and size, range from 270 l/min to 590 l/min as well as various valve functions that can be selected independently.


The VR series is ideally suited for industrial or mobile applications:

  • 24V DC & 12V DC
  • Multi-pol
  • EtherNet/IP
  • PROFINET
  • EtherCAT
  • CANopen
  • IO-Link


​​​​​​​"Made to YOUR order"

The high modularity of the VR series means that the valve islands are "Made to order". The configuration is therefore immediately the part number. Norgren's promise is that your VR island will be assembled in 10 Days.

    Phoenix Contact - Increase cybersecurity of machines and installations
    The benefits of network connectivity, such as increased productivity and flexibility, are obvious. But unfortunately, this also creates more and more potential attack targets for all kinds of cyber attacks. Cybercriminals repeatedly manage to exploit new vulnerabilities to gain unauthorised access to machines and facilities, for example. That is why governments are introducing new (additional) cyber security legislation. In doing so, they set ambitious goals.

    Connected Business - Vendor Managed Inventory
    The Lean improvement method distinguishes eight waste categories. One of these is 'inventory'. Too much stock is not good, but neither is too little. After all, having stock also provides the safe feeling of availability in times of uncertain internal planning and external factors that cannot be directly influenced. Because optimising availability both in one's own company and in the supply chain is often not the core competence of our customers, itsme can take over the care of such optimisation, for example through the import and management of so-called Vendor Managed Inventory systems. But, how do you know whether VMI is indeed the right solution? Ralph van Aartsen can answer that crucial question - using five questions. Here, in advance, are his answers to our questions on VMI.
