Product Overview
The FESTO VUWS-LT30-M52-M-G38 is a pneumatically actuated directional control valve from Festo’s VUWS series, engineered for precise control of compressed air flow in industrial automation and process systems. Featuring a 5/2-way function (five ports, two positions), this valve directs pressurized air to extend or retract pneumatic actuators such as cylinders and rotary drives. The “M52” designation indicates a 5/2 monostable configuration, while the “G38” suffix denotes a G3/8 threaded port connection. The “LT30” code reflects the valve’s nominal flow size and body series. Constructed with a robust spool-and-sleeve mechanism, the VUWS-LT30-M52-M-G38 delivers fast response times, high flow capacity, and reliable switching performance, making it a critical component in pneumatic control circuits for manufacturing, packaging, and material handling equipment.
