BURKERT 20025930 Type 8652 AirLINE 16-Bank Valve Island, PROFIBUS DPV1, AirLINE Quick Aluminium

BURKERT 20025930 (Type 8652) AirLINE is a 16-slot modular valve island featuring PROFIBUS DPV1 communication, AirLINE Quick aluminium plate, HotSwap capability, and integrated SIA safety shutdown.

BURKERT 20025930 Type 8652 AirLINE 16-Bank Valve Island, PROFIBUS DPV1, AirLINE Quick Aluminium

BURKERT 20025930 (Type 8652 AirLINE) is a 16-station modular valve island engineered for process automation environments. Configured as a high-density pneumatic automation node, this assembly integrates 16 valve slots accommodating 32 total valve pilot functions, 32 digital inputs across four 8DI electronic modules, and an integrated central pneumatic intermediate feed module. Fieldbus connectivity is established through a dedicated ME43 PROFIBUS DPV1 communication interface with a 9-pin Sub-D socket, providing cyclic process command exchange as well as clear-text and symbolic diagnostic alarms readable directly via an on-board LC display or transmitting to the higher-level PLC.

Process safety and system availability are central to the 20025930 configuration. The first 13 valve slots are populated with Type 6534 dual 3/2-way normally closed valves (CF-C) with manual override, while positions 14 through 16 are equipped with Type 6534 SIA variants designed for safety-related hardware shutdown via external potential-free contacts. Integrated check valves in exhaust air ducts 3 (R) and 5 (S) prevent back-pressure surges from causing unintended process valve movements. In addition, pneumatic HotSwap capability in supply channel 1 (P) permits valve replacement under full line pressure without interrupting adjacent operating loops.

AirLINE Quick Adapter Interface ​

Direct cabinet integration is achieved through the AirLINE Quick adapter plate, eliminating the need for bulkheads and intermediate cabinet fittings by mounting the valve island directly onto the control cabinet floor or wall cutout.

Pneumatic Circuit Functions ​

The Type 6534 pilot valves mounted on the island provide high-speed servo-assisted switching:

  • Circuit Function C (CF C): Dual 3/2-way servo-controlled solenoid valve, normally closed in de-energised state. Standard versions feature mechanical manual overrides.
  • Circuit Function C SIA (CF C SIA): Dual 3/2-way servo-controlled solenoid valve, normally closed, configured without manual override for safety-instrumented shutdown circuits.
  • Alternative 6534 Functions: Type 8652 also supports CF D (dual 3/2-way NO), CF H (5/2-way monostable), CF Z (5/2-way bistable/impulse), CF L (5/3-way closed center), CF M (5/3-way pressurized center), and CF N (5/3-way exhausted center).

Valve positions 14, 15, and 16 on article 20025930 are fitted with Type 6534 SIA valves. These valves feature dedicated, physically separate connection terminals allowing external hardware interlocks to cut valve coil power independently of the bus master communications.

Factory Delivery StateBridged with factory jumper clips for direct commissioning without SIA
Control Contact RequirementExternal potential-free dry contact (safety relay or mechanical switch)

Safety Terminal Preparation

Before wiring an external safety shut-off contact to the SIA terminals, the yellow coded jumper clips pre-installed at delivery must be removed. Connecting voltage to these potential-free inputs will damage the shutdown circuitry.

Isolated Power Supplies

The pneumatic valves must be supplied via their own dedicated 2-pin AUX 24 V power connection on the interface plate. This keeps solenoid coil load noise isolated from the sensitive display and PROFIBUS digital communications.

Maintenance Without Process Interruption

Pneumatic HotSwap enables replacement of an individual pilot valve while the manifold remains pressurized. Maintain at least the recommended front enclosure distance shown in the manual so technicians can unlock and dismount the valve body cleanly.
