Chapter 6: Optional Equipment Installation
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 (28 psi minimum
(0.19 MPa) to 114 psi (0.786 MPa) maximum). 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 s-series robots, the
air lines from Port A on each valve are plugged at the factory (at the solenoid assembly).
The Solenoid Kit for the Adept Cobra s-series robot is available through Adept. Contact your
Adept Sales Representative for current price and availability.
