At Achema 2006, Parker Lucifer will highlight its innovative EExPress fieldbus-compatible manifold that allows pneumatic actuation systems to be sited in hazardous area (Zone 1 and 2) processing environments without the need for expensive explosion-proof pressurised cabinets.
The EExPress Bus Manifold is a stackable valve island system that fully integrates 5/2 solenoid valves, control electronics and input sensors for Zone 1 and 2 environments.
It is compatible with the Profibus DP fieldbus - the protocol preferred by many users in the process industries.
One Profibus address can operate up to 32 individual 5/2 modular solenoid valves, or a combination of valves and actuator position sensors.
The valve island's fieldbus compatibility also supports advanced remote diagnostics down to individual valve and sensor level - thereby further supporting the demanding needs of the continuous processing sector.
The fieldbus connection to the terminal can be made by either optical fibre or copper - with the aid of intrinsic-safety circuits.
EExPress is fully certified to ATEX and LCIE standards, is CE marked and EMC tested and approved.
More information is available from the company's website.
