Re: Solenoid Breakout Voltage for Pneumatics Question

From this years Pneumatics manual:

ELECTRIC VALVES
FESTO has also supplied one double solenoid valve.
Instructions in the package explain how to wire the valve. The fittings
are the push to connect type so all you have to do is push in the tubing. The
valve is a 24V valve and must be connected to a Solenoid Breakout board that is powered
from the 24V supply on the Power Distribution Board.
There is a document showing how to do this on the FIRST web site.
