AirBoxes: AS-i pneumatics with quick mounting technology.
 
 

 
 Reliable mounting high protection rating and new valve functions.
  • Slide valves free from overlapping.
  • Pressure peak resistance up to 12 bar.
  • 3 freely selectable directions of rotation of the flat cable.
  • Extended addressing mode.

Introduction
After successfully launching the ClassicLine modules for field applications we are now introducing the AirBoxes with various new features. The AirBoxes are now easier to use with their novel assembly technology, additional valve functions and many other new features.


Special features
  • slide valves free from overlapping
  • 2 x 3/2-way valves, 1 x 5/2-way valve (monostable/bistable)
  • 1 x 5/3-way valve with blocked middle position
  • quick mounting of upper and lower parts
  • flat cable can be inserted from 3 different directions
  • extended addressing mode

Advantages and customer benefits
New valve functions, slide valve technology and an increased pressure peak resistance are the main new features of the AirBoxes. The easy mounting of the AirBoxes onto the AS-i flat cable using the new quick mounting technology ensures the user of maximum security. The additional FAULT LED as well as the LEDs for indication of the logical state of the PLC outputs are standard for all AirBox versions. The AirBoxes can be easily addressed before mounting using the implemented addressing interface without voltage being applied.
