BURKERT 20126827 Type 8652 AirLINE Quick Stainless Steel 24-Bank Valve Island, Industrial Ethernet

BURKERT Type 8652 (article 20126827) is a high-density 24-bank AirLINE pneumatic valve island configured for process automation environments. This assembly integrates 24 valve slots, each populated with a dual 3/2-way normally closed solenoid valve (Circuit Function C), providing 48 independently actuated pilot functions within an 11 mm per station slice form factor. The unit incorporates 48 digital inputs distributed across six 8DI electronic modules, enabling direct feedback monitoring from process valves and limit switches without separate remote I/O blocks.

Pneumatic process interfacing is executed through a stainless steel 1.4301 AirLINE Quick adapter plate, featuring push-in connectors sized at D10 mm for main compressed air supply and D6 mm for working ports, combined with an intermediate feed module installed between stations. High-level fieldbus control is handled by an integrated multi-protocol Industrial Ethernet gateway supporting PROFINET IO, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, EtherCAT, and CC-Link IE Field Basic over dual RJ45 ports.
