A valve module (1) for mounting on a valve module carrier (2), the valve module (1) being of plate-shaped design, extending in a longitudinal direction (x), and being subdivided into a plurality of longitudinal sections adjoining one another in the longitudinal direction (x), the valve module having, as a first longitudinal section, a main valve section (8) with a first main valve (9), and, as a second longitudinal section adjoining the main valve section (8) in the longitudinal direction (x), a pilot section (10) with a pilot valve (11) for actuating the first main valve (9), the valve module (1) further having, as a third longitudinal section adjoining the pilot section (10) in the longitudinal direction (x), a pressure sensor section (12) with a pressure sensor (13) for detecting a fluid pressure of the valve module (1).

A pneumatic system, including a valve arrangement with a carrier section and several valve modules which are arranged in or on the carrier section, in which each valve module includes at least one valve unit and in which the carrier section comprises a plurality of working ports. Each working port can be selectively pressurised or exhausted via a respectively assigned valve unit. The pneumatic system further includes a hose arrangement and at least one pneumatic consumer with a compressed air receiving space which via the hose arrangement is pneumatically connected to at least two of the working ports, so that by way of this the valve units which are assigned to these working ports are pneumatically interconnected and the compressed air receiving space can be simultaneously pressurised and/or exhausted via at least these two interconnected valve units.

The disclosure relates to a hydraulic control unit of plate-form design, having a control plate arrangement which includes at least two control plates between which an intermediate element is arranged, which has apertures and bears with a first sealing face against a first control plate and with a second sealing face against a second control plate (4). In order to improve the hydraulic control functionally and/or in terms of production, an electrical conductor device is incorporated into the intermediate element

Valve module system for supplying compressed air to a compressed air consumer, in which valve modules can be provided with differently configured channel plates in order to enter into fluid communication with fluid channels of a carrier plate, with several connecting channels are formed, which are designed to connect a first valve connection and a second valve connection of a valve assembly to a channel opening of a fluid channel.
