6 Connections

The work described in this section is only to
be performed by personnel qualified for the
assignment accordingly.
6.1 Establishing pneumatic
connections
NOTICE
!
Risk of converter damage due to the maxi-
mum supply pressure being exceeded.
Î Observe the maximum supply pressure
(see the 'Design and principle of opera-
tion' section).
Î Restrict the supply pressure by using a
suitable supply pressure reducing station.
NOTICE
!
Risk of damage to the converter and down-
stream devices due to failure to meet air
quality requirements.
Î Only use supply air that is dry and free
of oil and dust.
Î Comply with air quality requirements for
the converter and downstream device
(pneumatic controller or pneumatic con-
trol valve).
Î Blow through all air pipes and hoses
thoroughly before connecting them.
The pneumatic connections for supply air
(SUPPLY 8) and output (OUTPUT 36) are de-
signed as threaded ports with either a G ¼
or ¼-18 NPT thread. The customary fittings
for metal pipes or plastic hoses can be used.
EB 6126 EN
Î Check the supply air quality.
– Converter: air quality according to
ISO 8573-1: 2001 (see the 'Design
and principle of operation' section).
– Downstream device (pneumatic con-
troller or pneumatic control valve):
see specifications provided by the
device manufacturer
Î Connect the supply air line to the SUPPLY
connection (8).
Î Connect the air line to the downstream
device to the OUTPUT (36) connection.
Extension of the venting pipe
The venting pipe can be extended by using a
pipe (minimum cross-section 28 mm² =
6 mm inside Ø) connected to the vent elbow
connector or connected directly to the G or
NPT connection.
Î Attach the extension pipe in such a way
that no water can enter the end of the
extension pipe.
6.2 Establishing electrical
connections
For electrical installation, observe the rele-
vant electrotechnical regulations and the ac-
cident prevention regulations that apply in
the country of use. In Germany, these are
the VDE regulations and the accident pre-
vention regulations of the employers' liability
insurance.
A male angle connector conforming to
DIN EN 175301-803 A is used for electrical
connection.
