Function and application

The MS6(N)−SV electro−pneumatic soft start/quick exhaust valve is intended for
reducing pressure quickly and safely and for building up pressure gently in
pneumatic pipeline systems and terminal equipment in industry.
The MS6(N)−SV is an intrinsically safe, redundant mechatronic system in
accordance with the requirements set out in DIN EN ISO 13849−1.
The safety−related pneumatic protective goal of the MS6(N)−SV is secure
exhausting, and this is also guaranteed in the event of a fault in the valve (e.g. due
to wear or contamination).
The MS6(N)−SV receives secure enable signals (EN1/EN2) from commercially−
available electronic or electromechanical safety switching devices via its electrical
connection (NECA multi−pin plug socket Sub−D, 9−pin). These safety switching
devices monitor the machine's protective devices (e.g. EMERGENCY−STOP, light
grid, electrical door switch on the protective housing, etc.).
The intended use includes complying with the limit values defined in these
operating instructions (e.g. operating medium, pressures, temperatures,
operating voltages, flow rates).
The intended use has been checked by the BGIA and is documented by a BG test
certificate.
Operating modes
The following two operation modes are possible:
Automatic start" (automatic reset)
Monitored start" (monitored reset)
In both operation modes, the MS6(N)−SV can be controlled using either static or
dynamic enable signals (EN1/EN2) (è chapter 6 Connection examples").
Note
The product is suitable for industrial purposes only.
