Control Head Type 8681
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION5.
Intended Application Area5.1.
The Control Head Type 8681 has been designed for use as actuation of pneumatically operated process valves
and / or for recording the switching states of these.
General Description5.2.
The Control Head Type 8681 is used for actuating pneumatically operated process valves.
For process valve actuation, the control head can be equipped with up to three solenoid valves.
For the recording and feedback of the process valve switching positions to a higher-level control, the control head
has been equipped with a contactless position measuring system, which works with three discrete, adjustable
feedback signals (Teach-In Function).
The control head and the process valve are interconnected by an adapter. This produces an integrated, compact
and decentralized system of feedback, actuation and valve function. The following advantages over centralized
solutions working with valve clusters are achieved:
low installation expenditure•
easy start-up•
higher application-specific flexibility•
shorter switching times and less air consumption due to shorter distances between the pilot valve and the •
process valve.
Various pneumatic and electrical connection variants are available.
Special Features5.3.
Special features of the Control Head Type 8681 include:
easy-to-clean design with IP65 / IP67 protection •
high cleaning agent compatibility•
use of high-quality materials•
modular structure•
restrictable R- and P-connections for all pilot valves (solenoid valves)•
integrated pressure-relief valve in the inside of the housing for discharging leakage air with connection into the •
common exhaust air connection
collected exhaust air of all valve locations into one common exhaust air connection (by default equipped with a •
silencer)
if equipped with several working connections: one integrated non-return valve per connection in the exhaust air •
duct as protection against faulty switching of the process valves due to return pressure
central, super-bright optical display showing the process valve switching positions and design-specific addi-•

System Description
english
Control Head Type 8681
Position Measuring System5.4.6.
The switching positions of the process valves are reported to the higher-level control by feedback signals from
the contactless position measuring system. Connection to the control head is done by means of a simple adaptation to the process valve's piston.
The recordable stroke range is between 0 and 80 mm.
Three binary feedback signals are evaluated:
- Position 1 (discrete S1OUT signal)
- Position 2 (discrete S2OUT signal)
- Position 3 (discrete S3OUT signal).
The 24 V DC design is additionally available in the order variant "Analog":
Order variant: - Position 1 (discrete S1OUT signal)
- Position 2 (discrete S2OUT signal)
- Position 3 (analog (4...20 mA) S3OUT signal).
Three Teach-In buttons have been provided for comparison with the actual stroke range (see chapter 15. Position Measuring System). The switching positions for the position measuring system can be determined with these
buttons or by means of the service interface (on the electronics module).
An discrete, external feedback signal (standard proximity switch) can also be processed (S4IN, S4OUT).
If an explosive atmosphere is present the housing may not be opened when voltage is present.
For a detailed description of the electrical installation, see chapter 10. 24 V DC - Design or
chapter 11. AS Interface - Design.
For the setting of the Teach-In buttons, see chapter 15. Position Measuring System.
Other Features 5.4.7.
Central optical position indicator for showing the process valve switching positions: •
Positions and status information can be indicated by means of three signal colors.
The assignment of the signal colors and the blinking pattern, which indicates the type of fault, are described in
chapter 16. LED - Color Assignments.
Simple adaptation of the control head (for the position measuring system) to the process valve piston rod•
Simple adjustment of the position measuring system by three Teach-In buttons on the electronics module•
The capability of restricting the pilot valve (solenoid valve) for the individual setting of the expansion and •
retraction rates of the process valve and the individual setting of the flow-rate of the working connections

Stainless steels such as e.g. 1.4404 are suitable.
To ensure the proper function of the position measuring system, the axial deviation of the adapter must •
be less than ± 0.1 mm to the spindle when mounted!
Use exclusively Bürkert adaptations.•
Prior to assembling the control head onto the hub flange, lightly grease the O-rings with a silicone •
grease (e.g. Paraliq GTE 703).
A seal or a hood safeguard using plastic self-cutting screws is required in the explosion-risk area, so •
that unintentional opening of the housing will be prevented!

Control Head Type 8681
Check the secure fit of the sealing rings (in the upper and lower grooves).→
Mount the control head on the hub flange (seamlessly 360° rotatable). →
Secure control head with the two locking screws (shoulder screws M5) in the middle groove of the hub flange →
to prevent pulling off from the hub flange – tightening torque: max. 3.2 Nm (see Fig. 7: Dimensional diagram of the control head - process valve adaptation and 7.2.3. Realignment of the Control Head).
7.2.3. Realignment of the Control Head
If necessary, the control head can be realigned, in particular if properly accessible installation of the pneumatic supply
lines is not possible due to spatial conditions. This might also be required for operational aspects (accessibility of
the manual control) and because of electrical connection possibilities.
Procedure:
→
Loosen the locking screws (shoulder screws M5) slightly until the underside of the screw head is flush with
the auxiliary surface of the housing.
The locking screw has
been loosened sufficiently
if the lower side of the
screw head is flush with
the auxiliary surface of the
housing.
Rotate the control head until the desired alignment has been achieved.→
Secure the control head with locking screws again until the upper side of the screw head is flush with the →
auxiliary surface of the housing. The locking screws have no sealing function. The control head is not fixed in
place by the locking screws; it is merely protected against being pulled off the hub flange.
The locking screw is sufficiently
tightened when the upper side of
the screw head is flush with the
auxiliary surface of the housing.
Tightening torque: max. 3.2 Nm

NOTE!
Hose pipes!
Only use calibrated hose pipes with •∅6 mm (or 1/4") or ∅8 mm (or 5/16") outer diameters (tolerance:
+0.05 / -0.1 mm).
Only use a suitable hose cutter when cutting hose pipes. This will safeguard against damage and impermis-•
sible deformation.
Accordingly dimension hose length to prevent that the hose ends in the plug-in hose connectors generate any •
diagonally pulling stresses (curved outlet without eccentric stress).
Only use suitable hose qualities (in particular for high ambient temperatures) that bear up under common •
stresses caused by the quick connector.
Silencer or exhaust air hose!
When using an exhaust air hose, accordingly dimension its length to ensure that a QNn value > 620 l/min is •
reached.
Tip:
Dimension the hose lengths so that the control head can be removed from the process valve if required
without any additional disassembly work.
Flow Restriction Function of the Solenoid Valves9.3.
Set the flow restriction screws of the solenoid valves only when needed and after completion of all necessary installations!
The flow restriction screws of the solenoid valves (see Fig. 9) are used for setting the air intake and exhaust for
the working connections:
Factory setting: QNn approx. 110 l/min.•
The flow restriction screws do not serve any sealing function.•
Only tighten the flow restriction screws to the stopper, otherwise damage to device may occur.•
Only use appropriate screw drivers (width •≤ 3 mm).

11. AS INTERFACE - DESIGN
Definition11.1.
AS Interface Connection
AS interface (Actuator Sensor Interface) is a field bus system which is used primarily for networking binary sensors
and actuators (slaves) with a higher-level control (master).
Connecting the control heads to higher bus systems is possible using commercially available gateways.
Contact your distribution partner in this regard.
Bus line
Unshielded two-wire line (AS interface line as AS interface cable harness) along which both information (data) and
energy (power supply for the actuators and sensors) are transmitted.
Network topology
Freely selectable within wide limits, i.e. star, tree and line networks are possible. Further details are described in the
AS Interface Specification (A/B slave model conforms to the version 3.0 specification).
Technical Data of the AS Interface of the Control Head:
See chapter 6. Technical Data
The control heads have been configured as AS interface version with an extended address range (A/B slaves)
for 62 slaves or optionally as an AS interface version for 31 slaves. For details, see chapter 11.8. Programming Data.

left: AS interface
right: external initiator
11.3. Number of Connectable Control Heads and
Maximum Length of the Bus Line
The bus cable may be a maximum of 100 m long.
The level of expansion that is actually possible depends on the total number of all individual operating currents for each
control head, which are supplied via the bus at the common AS interface bus segment (see example calculation).
Default: AS interface / 62 slaves (AS interface version with extended addressing range (A/B slave))
In AS interface versions with extended addressing range (A/B slave), 1 master can communicate with 62 slaves.
Option: AS interface / 31 slaves (AS interface version with 31 slave addressing range)
In this case, a maximum of 31 control heads can be connected to a bus line (the address range restriction).

AS Interface - Design
english
Control Head Type 8681
Table of calculated line length of the control head versions:
When designing the system, consider the length of the round cable leading directly to the control head (see following table and example calculation).
ModelCalculated line length (incl. internal cabling)
Multi-pole (cable 8 cm)0.3 m
Multi-pole (cable 80 cm)1.0 m
Example:
for multi-pole connection with 8 cm cable:
The AS interface cable harness may still be 81.4 m (100 m - 62 * 0.3 m) at maximum when using 62 control
heads.
If the calculated line length of 100 m were to be exceeded, a commercially available AS interface repeater may be
used, as needed.
Observe the maximum power supply using certified AS Interface power supplies ≤ 8 A!
For details, refer to the AS Interface Specification.
Observe the optional design "AS Interface with External Power Supply" to reduce the load on the AS interface
bus segment!
Use cables according to the AS Interface Specification.
The maximum cable length may change when using other cables.

11.7. Electrical installation AS Interface
Internal cabling work is not required for any of the AS Interface designs with multi-pole connection, which makes
installation and start-up on site considerably easier and quicker, reducing the risk of leaks.
However, you will require the correspondingly assembled cable sets with the following pin assignments. Likewise,
the jumpers on the electronics module must be set correspondingly (see figures below).
NOTE!
Use of the Control Head in Explosive Atmosphere
Only use cables and cable glands that are allowed for the respective application area, and mount the cable •
gland according to the respective operating instructions!
Close all unnecessary openings with lock screws/plugs approved for explosions area!•

The cable with multi-pole connection version is especially suited for direct and flexible connection to the AS interface
cable harness using the ribbon cable terminal (M12 branch circuit, VA branch circuit) that is optionally available.
The optional ribbon cable terminal contacts the AS interface cable harness by means of penetration technology which
allows installation by "clipping in" the AS interface cable harness without cutting and without removing insulation.

11.8. Programming Data
The control heads have been configured as AS interface version with an extended address range (A/B slaves) for
62 slaves or optionally as an AS interface version for 31 slaves.
A change between the two configurations in the control head is only possibly by exchanging the electronic PCB!
If one control head is replaced with another control head having a different configuration in the AS interface
field bus system (e.g. AS interface version 62 slaves (A/B-Slave) to replace a device with AS interface version
31 slaves), a configuration error will be generated at the master due to the different ID codes!
In this case (intentional replacement), the current configuration must be reprojected in the AS interface
master. Please read the operating instructions of the used AS interface master!
Programming Data Table:
Programming Data for 62 Slaves
AS interface - Device for A/B slave
addressing (default device)
The DeviceNet is a field bus system which is based on the CAN protocol (Controller Area Network). It enables •
actuators and sensors (slaves) to be networked with higher-level controllers (master).
The control head in the DeviceNet is a slave device according to the Predefined Master/Slave Connection Set •
stipulated in the DeviceNet specification. Polled I/O, Bit Strobed I/O and Change of State (COS) are supported
as I/O connection variants.
With DeviceNet it is necessary to differentiate between cyclical or event-driven high-priority process messages •
(I/O Messages) and acyclical low-priority management messages (Explicit Messages).
The protocol process conforms to the •DeviceNet specification Release April 2010.

Configuration example 12.12.2.
The example describes the principle procedure when configuring the device using the software RSNetWorx for
DeviceNet (Rev. 4.21.00).
Installation of the EDS File
The EDS file is installed with the aid of the EDS Installation Wizard Tool associated with RSNetWorx.
During the installation procedure the icon can be assigned (if this does not occur automatically).
Offline Parameterization of the Device
When a device has been inserted into the DeviceNet configuration of RSNetWorx, the device can be parameterized
offline.
"Fig. 23" indicates how, for example, an input assembly which deviates from the factory setting (input process
data can be transferred via I/O connection) can be selected. However, ensure that the length of the process data
during a subsequent configuration of the DeviceNet master/scanner is adjusted accordingly.
All parameter changes implemented offline must become operative for the real device at a later date by a
download process.

Online Parameterization of the Device
Devices can also be parameterized online. In doing so, you can also select whether only individual parameters (single) or all parameters (all) of a group are read from the device (upload) or are loaded into the device
(download).
It is also possible to transfer individual parameters or all parameters of a group cyclically in monitor mode. This
may be helpful particularly for start-up purposes.

Position Measuring System
english
Control Head Type 8681
15. POSITION MEASURING SYSTEM
The switching positions of the process valve are reported to the higher-level control by feedback signals from the
contactless position measuring system. Connection to the control head is done by means of a simple adaptation
to the process valve's piston.
The recordable stroke range is between 0 and 80 mm.
Three binary feedback signals are evaluated:
- Position 1 (a discrete S1OUT signal)
- Position 2 (a discrete S2OUT signal)
- Position 3 (a discrete S3OUT signal).
The 24 V DC design is also in the ordering option "Analog" available:
- Position 1 (a discrete S1OUT signal)
- Position 2 (a discrete S2OUT signal)
- Position 3 (an analog (4...20 mA) S3OUT signal).
Three Teach-In buttons have been provided for comparison with the actual stroke range. The switching positions
for the position measuring system can be determined with these buttons or by means of the service interface
(on the electronics module).
A discrete, external feedback signal (standard proximity switch) can also be processed (S4IN, S4OUT).

LED - Color Assignments
english
Control Head Type 8681
16. LED - COLOR ASSIGNMENTS
The switching states of the feedback positions are signaled centrally to the outside by super-bright LEDs so that
quick visual control is possible also for large systems.
The color assignments for all signals to the process valve states corresponds to the subsequently listed tables.
To be able to respond in the systems to the different process valve designs and signaling philosophies of the
customers, the assignment of functions to the available colors can be configured individually by means of the four
DIP-switches on site.
(Delivered state DIPs 1 - 4: each set to position 0)
When using the control head in explosive atmosphere, the housing may only be opened in the isolated
state.

Service Mode / Manual Control
english
Control Head Type 8681
17. SERVICE MODE / MANUAL CONTROL
By default, the control head provides the following (e.g. for service purposes):
a magnetic manual control that is easily accessible from the outside for Solenoid Valve 1 (2/A1), as well as •
a mechanical manual control accessible when the hood is open on each equipped solenoid valve.•
17.1. Magnetic Manual Control
Markings for
magnetic
manual control
Magnetic
Manual Control
Fig. 29: Manual control on the basis of encoded magnetic fields
Irrespective of the signal of the higher-level control, the magnetic manual control sets the output of Solenoid Valve
1 electrically to an ON signal and, if control pressure is present, thereby switches the 2/A1 output.
However, if the output of solenoid valve 1 is activated by the control (ON signal), this switching state
cannot be set to an OFF signal with the manual control!
The activation of the manual control is signaled by an illuminated LED display in the fault color: "Blinking patterns": 50 ms ON, 450 ms OFF.
The "blinking pattern" 100 ms ON, 100 ms OFF (3x) in the fault color signals that the manual control function was
disabled by software - the magnetic manual control does not function in this case!
(see chapter 16.2. Blinking Pattern & Fault Signaling)
Caution!
When the electrical manual control (valve location 1) is activated:
the peripheral fault bit will be set for the AS interface design;•
the mode is switched to "Manual control active" for the DeviceNet design and can be read out;•
the feedback signals (positions 1-3, external initiator) function as per normal operation.•
Always observe the safety guidelines and the system states!
76
Service Mode / Manual Control
english
Control Head Type 8681
Procedure for activating & deactivating the manual control for valve location 2/A1:
→
Observe safety guidelines for the system prior to using the manual control.
Activating the magnetic manual control: →
Hold the manual control tool on the identification points between the cable glands for three seconds
(see Fig. 29)
("blinking pattern" in fault color = 50 ms ON, 450 ms OFF – active manual control;
"blinking pattern" in fault color = 100 ms ON, 100 ms OFF (3x) – manual control function disabled by the
software).
Once the service measure has been completed, deactivate the magnetic manual control:
→
Hold the manual control tool on the identification points between the cable glands for three seconds
(see Fig. 29).
After a power failure, the magnetic manual control is reset and the control head restarts in standard operating mode, i.e. the signal of the higher-level control is applied.
17.2. Mechanical Manual Control
If additional manual controls are required for additional service purposes or in the event of a failure of the electrical energy, it is possible for all voltage and communication designs to switch the connected process valve using
the mechanical manual control of the solenoid valves after opening the housing.
