VP2X & VP2X-ADJ / VP2XBV & VP2XBV-ADJ Mid Series Fastbreak Venturi Vacuum Generator
VP2X Series air-powered venturi vacuum generators are trusted for accurate part placement and rapid part release. The reliable Fastbreak Mid Series provides both vacuum and blow-off in one generator, using only one compressed air line. No electricity required.
The integrated pneumatic high-speed blow-off on the VP2X generator provides a fixed-duration blow-off, based on the volume of the housing. With the VP2X-ADJ adjustable vacuum generator, you can control the intensity of the blow-off using one fingertip adjustment knob. (Customer-supplied directional control valve with exhaust required).
VP2XBV and VP2XBV-ADJ generators offer an optional 2-way integrated valve. For applications where you need to control the duration of the blow-off, please see the VP35 Series page.
