With the 8681 Bürkert presents a new control head which has been specially optimized for decentral automation of pneumatically controlled hygienic process valves. It is universally adaptable and can be combined with all commercially available valve types, such as butterfly valves, ball valves and single and double-seat valves. Since the control head is easy to clean, features time-tested IP protection and is made of chemical-resistant materials, it is good for use in hygienic applications. Within the framework of decentral automation concepts the 8681, as a central unit, performs all pneumatic actuation, feedback and diagnostic functions, as well as bus communication. Depending on the process valve, as many as three pneumatic actuator chambers can be controlled separately.
