What is the difference between old and new VQZ series valves? Also, are they interchangeable?
-
The old VQZ series was discontinued in June 2007.
The new VQZ series consumes less power due to the changing of the pilot valve. The old and new valves are generally interchangeable, but the (L type plug/M type plug) connector is not interchangeable.
The standard power consumption of new VQZ series valves is now only 0.35 W (DC), so there is no low-wattage type (symbol “Y”) as there was for old VQZ series valves.
As the response time of the new VQZ series standard product has also been reduced compared with the old product, only select the high-speed response type (symbol “B”) when high-speed response is required.
The old VQZ series catalog can be found here.
