The new valve island is compatible with Siemens SIMATIC ET 200SP The new AirLINE SP valve island from Bürkert is designed for optimal compatibility with the Siemens SIMATIC ET 200SP I/O system. Whether for standard digital / analogue input modules or controlling actuators via digital / analogue output modules: everything is integrated in one compact, high-performance automation system. Your advantages Process reliability for your plant ■■ Optimally compatible system ■■ Integrated check valves: prevent unwanted valve switching, which can result from uncontrolled pressure peaks ■■ Support for ring topology with MRP (Media Redundancy Protocol): redundancy prevents total failure in case a single device /  communication client fails ■■ Integrated safety function: in combination with Siemens modules the valve island can implement fail-safe automation tasks Saves time during commissioning and ­maintenance ■■ Fast configuration via Siemens TIA Portal ensures easy commissioning ■■ Two-line LCD with alphanumeric display: fast information on device status ■■ Hot swap function: change valves

Example applications Type 8647 AirLINE SP is designed for space-saving installation in control cabinets by means of DIN rail mounting. Example application: drinking water supply In waterworks, all steps in the water treatment process, such a filtration and ion exchange, are generally executed as separate automated processes. A separate control cabinet with a valve island that controls the connected actuators­­is therefore required for each step in the treatment process. This is necessitated by the stringent requirements for reliable operation of the overall plant (100% redundancy), in order to...
