Figure 6-9. Setting Solenoid Signal Values
The Adept-supplied solenoids each draw a nominal 75 mA from 24 VDC.
The solenoid valve assembly consists of two independent valves (Valve #1 and Valve #2) on a
common manifold. The manifold supplies air at the user’s line pressure: minimum 28 psi
(0.19 MPa), to maximum 114 psi (0.786 MPa). Each valve has two output ports, A and B. The
output ports are arranged so that when Port A is pressurized, Port B is not pressurized.
Conversely, when Port B is pressurized, Port A is not. In the Adept Cobra s600 and s800
robots, the air lines from Port A on each valve are plugged at the factory (at the solenoid
assembly).
