Control Gear’s technical team offers valuable advice for using these complex systems. Norgren’s VR, VM, and VS valve islands provide a modular design for easy maintenance. The VM features a durable polymer manifold, while the VS uses a die-cast aluminium base conforming to ISO standards, with options for soft seal or spool technology for enhanced versatility and performance.

We offer specialised models, including ATEX and LABS-free versions, as well as designs suited for both low and high temperatures. For higher accuracy and a longer lifespan, electronic pressure sensors are recommended, especially where traditional mechanical switches may not suffice.
