These operating instructions address only qualified experts in control and automation
technology with experience in the assembly, installation and commissioning, mainte-
nance and conversion of pneumatic components as well as being familiar with the con-
cept of the types of ignition protection in areas subject to the risk of explosions. In the
interests of your own safety, please pay attention to the fact that the valves are only
destined to control pneumatic actuators and for use in compliance with their purpose in
areas subject to the risk of explosions of zones 1 and 2 for gases*), fumes*) and va-
pour*) or in zones 21 and 22 for dust*). Therefore, use them as follows:
In accordance with their purpose,
In their original state,
without making your own changes and in technically perfect condition.
The limit values specified by AIRTEC for pressures, temperatures, electrical data etc.
must be observed. The national standards, safety regulations and accident prevention
regulations must be heeded.
The operating instructions of the manufacturer of the solenoid operator must al-
ways be heeded!
Attention
Read the operating instructions prior to commissioning. In the case of improper inter-
vention or if the notes in these operating instructions are ignored, all liability and war-
ranty claims shall lapse.
Caution!
Do not remove or cover this type plate / imprint. In order to perform changes do not
dismantle valves. There is a danger of damage and injury and loss of warranty.
*) depends on the solenoid operator system used. The marking of the device category
and the identification letter (G: gases, fumes or vapour; D: dusts) of the explosive at-
mosphere is printed onto the solenoid operator.

Operating instructions
54-ATEX-01
for
(GB)
electrically operated
pneumatic valve
The common ranges apply to the solenoid system and pneumatic valve with regards to
the data for pressure, temperature and the medium.
Cautionary notes:
Power supply to explosive areas: the installation notes of the valve manufacturer relat-
ing to power supply and fuse protection must be complied with (see operating instruc-
tions for Nass Magnet).
Special safety note
Solenoids may only be operated with the appropriate armature system. See table,
page 3.
Safety notes for assembly and installation
AIRTEC components are to be used only in the areas for which they are intended. In-
stallation and assembly may only be carried out in a zero potential, depressurised state
in an area not threatened by explosion and by expert personnel. Ensure that the ex-
haust air dusts are adequately dimensioned. The exhaust air from the units may not re-
sult in a new dust atmosphere explosion hazard in the dust EX area.
Safety notes for electrical assembly and electrical commissioning
Electrical commissioning may only be carried out in a depressurised condition and in an
atmosphere with no risk of explosion in order to avoid any dangerous movements. Care
must be taken to make no mistakes during wiring as these can cause fire, defective op-
eration or faulty functioning. The power supply lines and the signal lines must be pro-
tected from input from high voltage lines and disruptive irradiation. For further informa-
tion see DIN EN 60079. When working on the electronics, cut off supply voltage.
Protect against foreign bodies falling and possibly falling into the system. Pieces of wire
or chips can cause fire, defective operation or malfunctions. If installing the valve may
cause a difference of potential, a conductive connection must be created for equipoten-
tial bonding.
Maintenance, inspection and cleaning
Prior to performing installation and maintenance work, depressurise the system and cut
off the power supply to the solenoid operators on the valves.
Manual examination of the valves and solenoids after 2 million operating cycles or at the
latest every 6 months. This involves controlling: I permeability, tightness of screws and
screwed connections. Replace defective components with the same types only. The
maximum interval between cleaning must be determined by the operator by means of
initial daily inspection.
