1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1.1. Product Description
AirLINE Ex Type 8650 (hereafter referred to as AirLINE Ex) is an electrical and pneumatic automation system in
protection class IP30 that has been developed for use in explosive environments.
In combination with modules from the Siemens SIMATIC ET 200iSP System, a full range of electronic and pneu-
matic components are available. As long as simple rules are observed, it permits pneumatic, electric and elec-
tronic modules with different functions can be combined with one another. The components are connected to
each other using screws or latches. In this way both the electrical and the pneumatic connections are made.
The pilot valves integrated on the pneumatic modules allow a wide range of different pneumatic actuators to be
controlled on site (e. g. process valves or pneumatic cylinders).
