General instructions
The CP valve terminal is designed exclusively for control-
ling pneumatic actuators. The specified limit values for
pressures, temperatures, electrical data, torques etc. must
be observed.
Detailed information on the pneumatic components of the
valve terminal can be found in the pneumatics manual

Warning
S Switch off the power supply before connecting or
disconnecting plugs (otherwise this could lead to
functional damage).
S Use only power units which guarantee reliable isola-
tion of the operating voltages as per IEC 742/
EN 60742/VDE 0551 with at least 4 kV isolation resis-
tance (Protected Extra Low Voltage PELV). Switch
power packs are permitted, providing they guarantee
reliable isolation in accordance with EN 60950/
VDE 0805.
S Connect an earth conductor of sufficient cross-sec-
tional area to the terminal marked with the earth
symbol.
S Only operate a valve terminal which is completely
fitted and electrically wired.
If to be used as an explosion-protected operating
device, make sure that:
S electrical contacts are not disconnected under
tension
S the completely fitted valve terminal with all plugs,
adapters and protective caps complies at least with
protection class IP 64.
