Burkert: Type 8640 – Modular Valve Island for Pneumatics

November 15, 2022

The 8640 valve unit system is designed to solve diverse and complex control problems due to its systematic modular construction and combination of pneumatic and electrical interfaces. By putting together a row of pneumatic modules with different numbers of valves, 2 to 24 valve functionalities may be realized on one valve unit. Electrical connectivity is achieved by either fieldbus interfaces, common connection (parallel connection technique) or multipin interfaces. The valves allow different applications to be covered. Bodies and connection modules are made of high-quality plastic (polyamide) and are easy to assemble by means of the built-in snap connectors.

  •    –   Compact design
  •    –   Modular configuration
  •    –   Higher flexibility in control cabinet due to AirLINE Quick
  •    –   Simple exchange of valves (with option “P-shut-off” – also possible during operation)
