The heart of the control cabinet solutions – our valve islands
High-performance valve islands are an essential part of process automation.
The ready-to-mount control cabinet solution Type 8614 can be equipped with a valve island. A broad range of options ensures that the ideal valve island for a wide variety of needs is available to choose:
- Direct integration into the Siemens peripheral system: Full software integration into the Siemens process control system PCS7 (AirLINE valve island Type 8644, 8647).
- Fast diagnostics or feedback directly to the device and to the central controller: Clear text and symbol display above the pilot valve (AirLINE valve island Type 8647, 8652).
- Valves with hot swap support: Can be replaced during operation without shutting the installation down or affecting the neighbouring valves.
- Additional safety function: Check valves in bleed duct. These prevent valves from being accidentally enabled by pressure peaks in the bleed duct, thus eliminating media mixing.
- The AirLINE Quick base plate allows direct installation of the valve island in the control cabinet floor or wall..
