Always include the documentation when you pass the product on to third parties.
2.2

Intended use

The AV series IO-Link interface with integrated multipole board is an electronic component and was
developed for use in the area of industrial automation technology.
It serves to connect valves to the IO-Link communication system. The IO-Link interface should only
be connected to a master of the same type (type A to type A, type B to type B).
NOTICE: If connecting a type B IO-Link interface to a type A master:
Make sure that the external supply is never connected to the SIO pin on the type A master.
The AV series IO-Link interface may only be used to actuate the valves AV03 and AV05.
The IO-Link interface is intended for professional use only and not for private use. The IO-Link
interface may only be used for industrial applications (class A). An individual license must be
obtained from the authorities or an inspection center for systems that are to be used in a residential
area (residential, business, and commercial areas). In Germany, these individual licenses are issued
by the Regulating Agency for Telecommunications and Post (Regulierungsbehörde für
Telekommunikation und Post, RegTP).
The IO-Link interface may be used in safety-related control chains if the entire system is geared
toward this purpose.
Observe the documentation R412018148 if you use the valve system in safety-related control
chains.
2.2.1

Use in explosive atmospheres

The IO-Link interface is not ATEX-certified. ATEX certification can only be granted to complete valve
systems. Valve systems may only be operated in explosive atmospheres if the valve system has
an ATEX identification!
Always observe the technical data and limits indicated on the rating plate for the complete unit,
particularly the data from the ATEX identification.
Conversion of the valve system for use in explosive atmospheres is permissible within the scope
described in the following documents:
