Abstract
A valve arrangement has several valve clusters which are designed for different nominal flow rates. Each valve cluster () comprises a valve base () fitted with valve units (), the valve units () respectively having a control portion (), which is connected by way of electrical interface means () with internal signal transmission means () of the valve base (). Irrespectively of the flow rate category the overall height of the valve bases (), the width of the component mounting sites and of the valve units () and also the electrical interface means () are identically configured in the case of the valve clusters of all flow rate categories. The modification of the nominal flow rates is performed more especially by the choice of different overall lengths of the valve units ().
