2Overview

2.1 Design

The MSE6-E2M is an intelligent pneumatic service unit, which is equipped with measurement, control
and diagnostic functions and which supports energy-efficient operation of pneumatic systems. The
module is typically assembled behind a service unit combination.
The MSE6-E2M consists of the main components: shut-off valve, flow sensor, pressure sensor and bus
node. The fieldbus interface allows complete integration into a higher-order controller, e.g. a system or
machine controller. As an alternative to integration into a higher-order controller, the MSE6-E2M can
also be operated using an external operator unit (CPX-MMI) or a PC.

2.1.2 Mode of operation

Machine/sys

tem

Fig. 2.2 Typical installation position (as an example at the bus node CPX-FB33)

The MSE6-E2M is typically assembled behind a service unit combination.
It allows venting of the following system, both in the “Pressurise” state and in the “Shut­off ” state through a reverse flow (2 à 1). In the shut-off state, the reverse flow is consid
erably reduced. For this reason, for more rapid venting, the MSE6-E2M should be in the
“Pressurise” status.

The key functions are:

Standby detection and automatic shut-off of the compressed air supply

The MSE6-E2M uses settable parameters to detect production down times of a pneumatic system. The
system is separated from the compressed air supply using the 2/2 shut-off valve, without venting the
subsequent system. This avoids additional air consumption through leakages. If production is to con
tinue on the system, then it must be signaled to the MSE6-E2M. The shut-off valve opens and the sys
tem is again supplied with compressed air.
Automatic shut-off of the compressed air supply can be activated and deactivated by the user. In the
deactivated status, the shut-off valve can be controlled directly by the PLC.

Pressure tightness testing

When in the shut-off state, the MSE6-E2M measures the pressure curve over time.
Even in well-serviced systems, the pressure falls continuously due to leakages. The fewer leakages the
system has, the slower the pressure drop will be. The measured pressure change serves as a measure
of the leakage existing in the system. If the parameterised limit value is exceeded, then the device will
output a diagnostic message.

Pressure recording

The MSE6-E2M continuously measures the output pressure, prepares the data and makes it available
cyclically.
To detect high operating pressures, the MSE6-E2M offers the option of parameterising limit values for
pressure. If the parameterised limit value is exceeded, then the device will output a diagnostic mes
sage.

2 Overview

12 Festo – MSE6-E2M-IN-EN – 2017-07c – English

Flow recording

The MSE6-E2M continuously records the flow, prepares the data and makes it available cyclically.
To detect high flow rates, the MSE6-E2M offers the option of parameterising limit values for the flow. If
the parameterised limit value is exceeded, then the device will output a diagnostic message.

Consumption recording

The MSE6-E2M determines the compressed air consumption by recording the system flow rate. The
user has the option of using appropriate signaling to record the compressed air consumption over a
specific period of time.

2.2 Commissioning, diagnostics and operational functions

The system reaction of the MSE6-E2M can be adapted to the relevant application. The MSE6-E2M
provides extensive functions for commissioning, diagnosis and operation.

Commissioning and operational functions

The MSE6-E2M is supplied from the factory with preset parameters.

The behaviour of the MSE6-E2M can be adapted to the respective requirements through parameterisa
tion. The following behaviour can be influenced, for example, by accessing the internal parameters:
– The diagnostic behaviour by enabling maskable diagnostic messages
– Specification of the units and the measuring interval
– Setting of limit values
– The operating method of the diagnostic memory.

Caution

A different parameterisation will result in different characteristics.
 In particular, check which settings are required when replacing the MSE6-E2M.
 Ensure that the settings can be restored (e.g. in the start-up phase by the higher-or

der PLC/IPC).

Basic information on the different parameters can be found in Chapter 7. A detailed de
scription of the parameters can be found in Chapter 7 of the system description for the
energy efficiency module (è MSE6-E2M-SY-…).

2 Overview

Festo – MSE6-E2M-IN-EN – 2017-07c – English 13

Diagnostic functions

Extensive diagnostic information can be accessed, depending on the fieldbus used.

Diagnostic information

Brief description

Status bits Common diagnostic messages (global error messages) are displayed by

means of 8 internal inputs (8 status bits).
I/O diagnostic
interface

With fieldbuses that do not possess extensive diagnostic functions, the

diagnostic information of the MSE6-E2M is available via the I/O diagnostic

interface. The I/O diagnostic interface enables bus-independent access to

diagnostic information, data and parameters via internal digital I/Os

(16 inputs and 16 outputs).
Diagnostic memory Errors which occur during operation are entered in a diagnostic memory.

The first or the last 40 entries are saved, as well as the respective time

measured from the moment the power supply was switched on.
Fieldbus-specific dia
gnostic functions

Special diagnostic functions or communication services are available,

depending on the fieldbus used.

3.3 Combination with MS6 modules

Note

Observe the notes regarding installation and commissioning of MS6 modules in the
corresponding documentation.

Note

Observe the maximum permissible number of ten individual modules for the overall
combination. The MSE6-E2M counts as a double module here.

Note

When supplementing MS6 modules, only use the MS6-WPG wall mounting and the
MS6-MV-EX module connector.

Note

Observe the notes regarding the procedure for left and/or right-hand side assembly of
maintenance modules, as described in the assembly instructions for the MS6-WPG wall
mounting set.

Note

Please note that when using a MS6-SV-D, a MS6-WPG wall mounting set may not be
mounted on the right-hand side due to a mechanical conflict with the sensor cables.
Alternatively, an MS6-FRM-FRZ distributor block can be inserted.

Note

Please note that in the case of a larger device configuration, a longer FE connection is
required.

For the left and/or right-hand side supplement of the MSE6-E2M with MS6 modules, proceed as follows:

1. Use an MS6-WPG wall mounting set for MS6 individual modules or, in the case of pre-assembled
MS6 combinations, replace the MS6 wall brackets with the wall mounting set.

2. For MS6 individual modules use MS6-MV-EX module connectors or, in the case of pre-assembled
MS6 combinations, replace all of the standard module connectors with these module connectors.

For a left-hand supplement, proceed as follows:

3. Remove the left-hand pneumatic base plate of the MS6 module or MS6 module combination re
spectively and assemble the left-hand pneumatic base plate of the MSE6-E2M at this point.

4. Connect the earth terminal on the left-hand pneumatic base plate with low impedance (short cable
with large cross section) to the left end plate of the electrical interlinking module of the MSE6-E2M.

3 Mounting and installation

18 Festo – MSE6-E2M-IN-EN – 2017-07c – English

For a right-hand supplement, proceed as follows:

5. Remove the right-hand pneumatic base plate of the MS6 module or MS6 module combination re
spectively and assemble the right-hand pneumatic base plate of the MSE6-E2M at this point.

When mounted correctly, a low-impedance connection must exist between the earth terminals of the
left and right-hand pneumatic base plate.

 With low-impedance connections, make sure that the earth terminal at the left end plate of the

electrical interlinking module on the MSE6-E2M and the earth terminal at the power supply connec
tion have the same potential and that there are no compensating currents. If necessary, the pre­assembled electrical connection of the MSE6-E2M must be replaced by a longer, electrically equival
ent connection.
By following this approach you will prevent interference from electromagnetic sources and ensure
electromagnetic compatibility in accordance with EMC directives.

– Earth terminal on the left-hand end plate of the electrical interlinking module
– Earth terminal on left-hand pneumatic connecting plate

Note

 Always connect the earth potential to pin 4 (M18 plug) “functional earth”.
 Connect the earth terminal on the left-hand pneumatic base plate with low imped

ance (short cable with large cross-sectional area) to the left end plate of the electric
al interlinking module (pre-assembled on delivery).

 Connect the earth terminal on the left-hand end plate of the electrical interlinking

module with low impedance to the earth potential.

 With low-impedance connections, you can ensure that the earth terminal at the

left-hand end plate and the earth terminal at the power supply connection have the

same potential and that there are no equalising currents.
This prevents interference from electromagnetic sources and ensures electromagnetic
compatibility in accordance with EMC directives.

Electrical connection example

The diagram below shows as an example the connection of a common power supply for supplying
power to the electronics/sensors and the actuators. Observe the following:
– Maintain the tolerance of the load supply voltage (24 V DC U

OUT/A

+10/-25 %).

– Connect the earth terminals for potential equalisation and ensure that compensating currents are

prevented.
– Connect the load voltage so it can be switched off separately.
– Secure operating voltage and load voltage separately. Choose external fuses, depending on the

application. Take into account the current consumption of the products in design and protection of

the power supply. Pay attention to the maximum permitted current load (power rating per pin):

16 A. Note that the sum of both currents of the operating and load voltages flows over Pin 3 (“0 V”).

Pay attention to correct polarity.

4 Commissioning

Warning
Risk of injury

Stopping the controller (e.g. after the transmission of parameters, system configuration
or control program) interrupts the communication to the MSE6-E2M, and the shut-off
valve then switches to the initial position (pressurise). If the valve was previously
closed, the system is pressurised. If the system was vented, pressurisation takes place
suddenly.
 Use appropriate measures to ensure that unintentional pressurisation of the system

is not possible.

Warning
Risk of injury

If the load or operating voltage of the MSE6-E2M is switched off, then the shut-off valve
switches to the initial position (pressurise). If the valve was previously closed, the sys
tem is pressurised. If the system was vented, pressurisation takes place suddenly.
 Use appropriate measures to ensure that unintentional pressurisation of the system

is not possible.

The MSE6-E2M is equipped with a pneumatically-piloted shut-off valve. With preset parameters and
applied input pressure P1, the valve automatically switches to the “pressurise” status in the following
cases:
– Switch-off of the operating voltage or the load voltage
– Interruption of the network communication with correspondingly set system parameters
– Stopping of the higher-order controller (see manufacturer's specifications), e.g. in the case of trans

mission of control programs, parameters, configuration data.

Festo – MSE6-E2M-IN-EN – 2017-07c – English 35

8.4 Error numbers

Possible errors of the MSE6-E2M are divided into three error classes with different priority, depending
on the seriousness of the error. If an error occurs, the system error LED (SF LED) will flash depending on
the error class.

Error class 2 (error) 2 * flash, pause

Error class 3 (serious error): 3 * flash, pause

Tab. 8.2 LED SF

If several errors occur together, the error with the highest priority will have precedence. This means
that:
– The system error LED flashes according to the higher priority
– The number of the error with the higher priority will be entered in the system diagnostic data under

function number 1938 (error number).
Within an error class, errors of modules with a lower module number have higher priority. For example,
errors of module number 0 have the highest priority within an error class. Errors of module number 1
have the second highest priority, etc.

A.2 Connecting cable

Connecting cable (fieldbus/network cable)

Use a suitable cable for your fieldbus system. Take the cable type from the description for the respect
ive bus node. Also take into account here the distance and the fieldbus baud rate.

Connecting cable

Use a connecting cable with a sufficient cable cross-section. Avoid long distances between the power unit
and the MSE6-E2M. Long cables reduce the voltage supplied by the power supply unit.

Preparing the connecting cable

Caution

The position of the pins on the plug connector is different from that on the socket!
– For pin allocation of the fieldbus interface, see description for the respective field

bus node.

– The operating voltage and load voltage connections are in the form of plug connect

ors. Information on the pin allocation can be found in the following chapters.

Use plug connectors and sockets from the Festo product range which match the outside
diameter of the cables used.

Connect the plugs and cables as follows (example):

1. Open the plugs/sockets as follows:
– Power supply socket:

 Insert the mains power socket into the operating voltage connection of the MSE6-E2M.
 Unscrew the housing of the socket.
 Then remove the connecting part of the socket, which is inserted in the operating voltage

connection.
