4 About this product

3/2-shut-off valves, 3/2-directional valves AS filling valves are components of
maintenance units.
3/2-shut-off valves are used to shut off the supply of compressed air mechanically
or pneumatically.
3/2-directional valves that enable electrical switching of compressed air can be
customized to different requirements via various coils and plates.
3/2-directional valves with end position detection are used to detect the position
of the control piston via a sensor. An output signal is supplied on the connected
sensor when the valve is in its inactive position (2 → 3 = exhaust).
Sensor switching is also visible on the front plate (on AS3) and rear plate (on AS5).
Filling valves permit controlled application of compressed air on the system.

5 Assembly, commissioning and operation

Danger of fire
Overcurrent, e.g. resulting from a short circuit, can cause overheating and
fires.
Provide for overcurrent protection as per EN 60204-1 if the current in any
u
circuit can exceed either the rated value for a component or the current
carrying capacity of the conductor, whichever is the lower value.
Danger of injury if assembled under pressure or voltage!
Assembling when under pressure or electrical voltage can lead to injuries and
damage to the product or system components.
1. Make sure that the relevant system component is not under voltage or
pressure before you assemble the product.
2. Protect the system against being restarted.
Danger of burns!
The surfaces of adjacent system components can become hot during opera-
tion.
Do not touch the device during operation.

5.2 3/2-directional valve SOV and 3/2-shut-off valve BAV

Explosive atmospheres
If unsuitable components are used switching processes may trigger ignition in
explosive areas.
Please only use ATEX-version pilot valves and coils in explosive areas.
u
If silencers are not used, 3/2-directional and 3/2-shut-off valves emit
very loud exhaust noises.
u Please therefore only operate 3/2-directional and 3/2-shut-off
valves with silencers.

5.3 BAV 3/2-shut-off valve, mechanically operated

See Fig. 1
Adjust valve position (1-III)
The 3/2-shut-off valve is open in position (a).
Turn the rotary knob by 90° in a clockwise direction to shut off the pressure.
u
In position (b) the pressure P1 (2 → 3) is shut off and pressure P2 is exhausted via
output 3.
Close valve (1-I + IV)
The rotary knob can be secured by a padlock to prevent unauthorized opening of
the 3/2-shut-off-valve.
1. AS1: Press the rotary knob down.
Three round openings appear to attach the padlocks.
AS2: Pull the shut-off plate (c) out. Push down the film hinge.
AS3/AS5: Pull the shut-off plate (c) out.
2. Attach the padlock.
Up to three padlocks can be attached to AS1/AS2.

5.4 SOV 3/2-directional valve, pneumatically operated

See Fig. 2

5.4.1 Connecting

1. Insert the seal (b) in the connection (a) and mount the push-in fitting (c) with
G 1/8 thread on the connection (a).
2. Connect the pressure supply (d) for the control pressure.
