Burkert Type 8652 AirLINE valve island optimised for process automation. Features LC display diagnostics, AirLINE Quick adapter, and ATEX/IECEx Zone 2 approvals.

Burkert Type 8652 AirLINE is a valve island especially developed for process automation requirements. New diagnostic functions can be visualised on the LC display, both in clear text as well as symbols. This makes it easy to relate to the shown messages and helps to save time during start-up and maintenance. Furthermore, the diagnostic message is also available at the controller, enabling a fast overview of the plant status.
The hardware is optimised for installation at the bottom of the control cabinet, though installation on a standard rail is also possible. Key pneumatic functions ensure increased process reliability, such as check valves in the exhaust air ducts that prevent unplanned actuation due to pressure peaks. The system supports safety-related shut-off of valves and offers higher plant availability with PROFINET S2 (system redundancy).

To use the Hot Swap function, always observe a minimum distance to the front edge of the control cabinet when installing the valve island inside the control cabinet.

The digital inputs are supplied (24 V) by the electronic module. Current is limited to maximum 30 mA per digital input. Standard 3-wire sensors and 2-wire sensors with voltages between 10…30 V as well as mechanical limit switches can be used.
Type 6534 valves are equipped with additional connection terminals. A valve circuit can therefore be interrupted by an external switch. Manual override is not required for these valve variants. To use the shut-off function, connect the terminal to a potential-free contact (mechanical switch or relay).
The following illustration shows a network with the example of AirLINE Type 8652 with Industrial Ethernet variant as master valve terminal and various AirLINE Type 8652 with büS variant as slave valve terminals.

Special Conditions for Hot Swap
The Hot Swap function is prohibited in an existing explosive atmosphere. If it can be proven and ensured by suitable test equipment that there is no explosive atmosphere for a certain period of time, it is permissible to remove/insert valves using Hot Swap during this time.
