It has a fully integrated automation module in three different designs. The combi switchbox combines optical position indication by LEDs with electrical position indicator and integrated pilot valves. The version with an integrated positioner also has what has become known as a SpeedAP function to enable fast commissioning. The automation module works using a microprocessor-controlled intelligent position sensor paired with an analogue travel sensor system. In addition, its teach-in function simplifies commissioning.
Furthermore, the GEMÜ 651 valve has integrated travel and system control. The automation module has AS-interface capability. Due to its compact design, the valve is very well suited for use in the smallest spaces, for example as components of multi-port valve blocks.
The valve design was developed taking into account the guidelines and recommendations of FDA, EHEDG and GMP. Thanks to integrated air ports, for example, pneumatic connectors between the actuator and pilot valve are not needed.
