The Festo VAD-M Series Vacuum Generator includes a single-stage design and operates according to the Venturi principle. The compressed air supply of the VAD-M is controlled by the built-in solenoid valve. When the electrical power supply is switched on, the valve is actuated and the flow of compressed air from 1 (P) to 3 (R) generates a vacuum at port 2, operating on the ejector principle.

Suction stops when the supply power to the valve is switched off. Workpieces with smooth, impervious surfaces are picked up and retained.
