1. Summary of components
The input modules control the processing of input signals
(e.g. from sensors) and pass these signals onto the controller
via the field bus.
The output modules are universal electric outputs and control
low-current consuming devices, e.g. further valves, bulbs,
etc.
Additional I/O modules for special applications are also available.
Further information on the use of all the I/O modules can be
found in the ”Supplementary manual for the I/O modules” for
your valve terminal.
The pneumatic modules provide the following:
– the common channels for the supply and exhaust air
1-8
– electric signals from all valve solenoid coils
Work connections 2 and 4 have been provided for each valve
location on the individual pneumatic modules.
The valves are supplied with compressed air via the common
channels on the pneumatic end plate or via special supply
modules. The exhaust air and pilot exhaust air are also
vented via these channels or modules. Further modules for
supplying pressure are also available, e.g. to enable you to
work with different working pressures.
Detailed information on the use of these modules can be
found in the ”Pneumatics manual” foryourvalveterminal.

2. Fitting
2.1Fitting the modules and components
The valve terminal is supplied from the factory ready
mounted. If you wish to add or replace individual modules
and/or components, please refer to the following manuals:
”Supplementary manual for the I/O modules” for fitting the
–
electric I/O modules
–”Pneumatics manual” for fitting the pneumatic modules
– The fitting instructions are included in the package in the
case of modules and components ordered at a later
stage.
Please note
Treat all the modules and components of the valve
terminal with care. Pay attention in particular to the
following:
– The screws must fit exactly (otherwise the threads will
be damaged). Tighten the screws without distortion or
mechanical stress.
– Observe the specified torques.
– Modules must not be offset (IP 65).
– Connecting surfaces must be clean (avoid leakage and
contact faults).
– The contacts of type 03 valve solenoid coils must not be
bent (they are not resistant to bending and will break off
if bent back).
– Electrostatically vulnerable components.
Do not touch any contact surfaces on the side plug connectors of the modules and components.

2. Fitting
2.1.1 Earthing the end plates
The valve terminal possesses a left-hand and a right-hand
end plate as a mechanical termination of the valve terminal.
These end plates fulfil the following functions:
– They comply with protection classs IP 65.
– They contain connections/contacts for earthing.
– They contain holes for fitting the terminal onto a wall
and for the hat rail clamping unit.
Please note
When supplied from the factory, the end plates of the valve
terminal are earthed internally. If you carry out any extensions/conversions to the type 03 valve terminal, you must
earth the end plates of the terminal as described below. In
this way you will avoid faults caused by electromagnetic
influences.
2-4
Earth the end plates as follows:
1. Right-hand end plate:
To earth the right-hand end plate connect the pre-fitted
cable on the inside to the appropriate contacts on the
pneumatic modules or the node (see diagram below).
2. Left-hand end plate:
The left-hand end plate must be connected conductively to
the other components by means of t he pre-fitted spring
contacts.
Please note:
Instructions on earthing the complete valve terminal can be
found in the chapter ”Installation.” The diagram below shows
how both end plates are fitted.

2. Fitting
2.2Fitting the valve terminal onto a hat rail
The valve terminal is also suitable for fitting onto a hat rail
(support rail as per EN 50022). There is a guide groove on the
rear of all modules for hanging them on the hat rail (see Fig.
2/4).
Caution
– A hat rail fitting without a hat rail clamping unit is not
jected to vibration, secure the hat rail clamping unit
additionally against sliding down and unintentional
loosening/opening with the locking screws intended for
this purpose (item 3).
Please note
– If the terminal is fitted in a horizontal position and with a
permanent load, the hat rail clamping unit need not be
secured addititonally with locking screws (item 3).
– If the terminal does not have a hat rail clamping unit,
this can be ordered and fitted at a later date.
– WhetherMIDIorMAXIclampingunitsaretobeused,
dependsontheexistingendplates(MIDI/MAXI).
2-6
Hat-rail clamping unit
In order to fit the valve terminal onto a hat rail, you will require a hat-rail clamping unit. This must be fitted on the rear
of the end plates as shown in the diagram below.
