MODULAR ELECTRICAL/PNEUMATIC AUTOMATION SYSTEM TYPE 8644
AirLINE
AirLINE Type 8644 is an electrical and pneumatic automation system which has been optimized for use in
control cabinets or boxes. In a through system, all electronic and pneumatic components are standardized
so that if simple rules are complied with, electrical and electronic modules of differing functionality may be
combined in a very simple manner. All components are connected via a snap-on mechanism. This
includes the necessary electrical connections. In this way, for example, valves and power outputs may be
combined with only one field bus connection. A number of electrical modules (terminals) may be combined
very simply with valves snapped onto special pneumatic modules (valve modules).
Features
Characteristics of AirLINE are:
• Simple handling
• Composition of control cabinet or box oriented to functional blocks
• Automatic composition of potential groups, current, data and safety circuits
• Open, flexible, modular structure
• Valves and terminals of 2-fold width: these enable optimal adaptation to the desired configuration. They
enable flexible, space-optimized system building without unnecessary reserve installation.
• Valves and terminals of 8-fold width: with larger stations, these enable rapid, efficient system building.
• Combination of valve and terminal widths for station composition optimized with respect to time, space
and price
Advantages
This principle brings the following advantages:
• Flow-optimized valve design
Flow of ca. 300 l/min STP for a valve width of 10 mm
• Integration of check valves in the basic pneumatic module (optional)
• Longer service life owing to rocker technology with lubricated and unlubricated air
• Simple configuring and extension thanks to high modularity
• Numerous valve functions: 3/2 and 5/2-way functions
• Mechanical emergency manual override
• Different pressure levels possible in one row
• Integration of pressure sensors, pressure switches and filter elements
• Central compressed air supply via connector modules on both ends, intermediate supply possible
