Pneumatic Valves & Process Automation Solutions for Modular Control Cabinets

For applications requiring control panels, pneumatic technology is known for high reliability, high force and torque generation and cleanliness This makes it indispensable for efficient solutions for drives and actuators for control and regulation Burkert has tamed the power of pneumatics and brings it to you in its most efficient form resulting in new standards in factory automation and process control.
Plug & Play - Configure as You Choose
The range of pneumatic valve solutions and process automation control package configuration options paired with enclosure selection possibilities can give even the most seasoned professional a headache. By providing both the pneumatic valve options, control package, and enclosure, Burkert is doing what we can to take some of the guess work out of the process, ensuring that all components communicate together seamlessly.
Let's take a look as some of the most popular configurations we offer:
Valve Island Type 8652
The pneumatic valve island type 8652 AirLINE is especially developed for applications in process automation. New diagnosis functions can be visualized at the LC Display. Both clear text as well as symbols show information which makes easy to relate the shown diagnosis. This saves time during installation and commissioning.
AirLINE - the valve island optimised for process automation
- Safety-related shut-off of valves possible
- Easy diagnostics via LC display
- Process reliability through pneumatic functions
- Optimised for installation at the bottom of the control cabinet
- EX-Versions: ATEX / IECEx Zone 2, cURus Haz. Loc. CL I, II, III Div 2
Valve Island Type 8653
The valve island Type 8653 AirLINE has been especially developed for applications in process automation New diagnostic functions can be visualized at the LC display, both in clear text as well as symbols This makes it easy to relate to the shown messages and helps to save time during start up and maintenance.
AirLINE Field – the valve island – optimised for process automation
- Fieldbus interface CANopen, IO-Link or büS (Bürkert System Bus)
- Easy diagnostics via LC display
- Process reliability through pneumatic functions
- Optimised for installation in the field (IP65/67)
A Wide Range of Valve Options
But these aren't the only valve options to select from. Whatever your requirements and ambient conditions may be. In the case of the pneumatic valves in the standard, Ex-i, Ex-m or NAMUR version, we offer suitable valves made of polyamide, aluminum and stainless steel for every application including use in extreme environments with temperatures down to 40C for outdoor or chemical applications.

Off-the-shelf Control Solutions
Type ME43 - Fieldbus gateway
The fieldbus gateway Type ME43 is the central control unit for Bürkert products (valves, sensors, mass flow controllers or displays), which consists of a fieldbus coupler which transmits the internal CANopen-based communication of the Bürkert field devices to industry standards for industrial Ethernet and fieldbus. With the help of graphical programming, which the module supports, sub-systems can be automated specifically to the customer’s needs (e.g. controlled mixing of gases, error monitoring through limit value switches, time switches).
Fieldbus gateway
- Gateway for industrial Ethernet and fieldbus standards
- Up to 128 input and 128 output variables can be assigned
- Easy integration in the process control level through system-specific device description files
- "Batch controller" functionality for precise dosing of liquids
- Graphical programming for automation of sub-systems
Type 8619 - multiCELL - Multi-channel and multi-function transmitter/controller
The 8619 multichannel and multifunction transmitter/controller is a microprocessor transmitter/controller for connection of sensors which deliver raw signals for pH, ORP, conductivity and flow via pulses or sensors (like pressure, level, chlorine…) which deliver analogue signals (0…20 mA, 4…20 mA, 0…2 V, 0…5 V, 0…10 V). Type 8619 is the ideal device for measurement and control, as well as dosing processes e.g. in applications of water treatment plants (like boiler, cooling tower or reverse osmosis systems) and food and pharma plants. Thanks to full support of the Modbus TCP, PROFINET (Conformance Class B) or EtherNet/IP, the 8619 can be integrated into most Industrial Ethernet environments.
multiCELL - Multi-channel and multi-function transmitter/controller
- Compatible with most common flow, pH/ORP, chlorine and conductivity sensors
- Simple, intuitive user interface with a large adjustable backlit graphics display (4 user defined views)
- Hardware extension possibilities (up to 6 free slots)
- Industrial Ethernet (Modbus TCP, PROFINET or EtherNet/IP) option available
- Functionality extendable by software options
