Foreword
Festo Didactic GmbH & Co. Electropneumatics
The Collection of Transparencies is conceived for the basic material of the TP200Electropneumatic Technology Package. The transparency collection and technologypackage form part of the The Learning System for Automation from Festo DidacticGmbH & Co.
The transparencies are designed from a didactical and methodological point of view.For each transparency, there is a short accompanying text that provides the speakerwith a quick overview of the contents. More information you will find in the textbookElectropneumatics.
Physical fundamentals of electropneumatics Function and application of electropneumatic components Designation and drawing of electropneumatic symbols Drawing of pneumatic and electrical circuit diagrams in accordance with
standards Presentation of motion sequences and switching conditions Direct and indirect manual controls Direct and indirect direction-dependent controllers Logical AND/OR functions Pressure-dependent controls with pressure switches Troubleshooting in simple electropneumatic control systems
The text pages contain a complete picture of the transparency with some additionalexplanations and items which the speaker can mark on the transparency duringinstruction.
The advantages of this concept are: The speaker can add to the transparencies step-by-step during instruction. Instruction is livelier. The accompanying texts provided reduce preparation time.
The enclosed CD-ROM contains all the overhead transparencies and accompanyingtext of this edition in an electronically presentable form in the filesElectropneumatics _ transparencies.pdf and Electropneumatics _text.pdf. Inaddition to the screen presentation, which can be made in any order, the contentscan be printed out and text and graphics can be used for your own trainingpreparations, insofar as the functionality of the required Adobe
Acrobat
Reader
permits this. This freely distributable software is available on the CD-ROM in thecurrently valid English version for Windows 95/98/NT for installation in the directoryAcrobat_Reader. Please start the file rs405eng.exe and follow the subsequentdialogue.

Pressure Regulating Valve
Pressure regulators have the function of keeping the output pressure mainlyconstant, independent of variations in the input pressure and the air consumption.
If the pressure rises at the outlet, the diaphragm moves against the spring force andthe flow cross-section at the valve seat is reduced or closed.
If the pressure drops at the outlet, the spring presses against the diaphragm and thepassage cross-section at the valve seat is enlarged or opened.
The output pressure is adjustable.
The input pressure must be higher than the output pressure.

One-Way Flow Control Valve
The check element blocks the flow of air in one direction, so that it flows across anadjustable throttle in this direction.
The air flow from the opposite direction lifts the seal of the check element from theseat. The compressed air can flow almost unrestricted in this direction.
The valve should be installed as close as possible to the cylinder.

Conversion of Pneumatic Signals into Electrical Signals
The PE converter is actuated with compressed air. When the pressure reaches apreset value, an electric signal is generated.
The pressure of a pneumatic signal works against an adjustable spring.
If the pressure working against the diaphragm overcomes the spring force, a stemactuates an electrical switch contact.
The electrical switching element can be normally closed, normally open orchangeover contact.

5/3-Way Solenoid Valve
The three switching positions of an electrically-actuated pilot-controlled5/3-way valve:
1. In the normal position, the solenoid coils are deenergized and the piston iscentered in its mid-position by the two springs. Ports 2 and 3 as well as 4 and 5are connected. Port 1 is blocked.
2. If current is applied to the lefthand solenoid coil, the piston moves to the right.Ports 1 and 4 as well as 2 and 3 are connected with each other.
3. If current flows through the righthand solenoid coil, the piston moves to the left.In this position, Ports 1 and 2 as well as 4 and 5 are connected.
Each of the two actuated switching positions is held as long as current flows throughthe corresponding solenoid coil. If the flow of current is interrupted, the pistonswitches back to the mid-position.

The Relay
In practice, the construction of a relay can be very different, but the function isnevertheless the same in principle: When a voltage is applied to the relay coil through contacts A1 and A2, an
electric current flows through the windings. A magnetic field is built up and pullsthe armature against the core of the coil.
Switch contact 1 is connected with switch contact 4. After removing the voltage, the armature is brought back into its initial position
by a spring. Switching contact 1 is connected with switching contact 2.
A relay can have multiple switching contacts which can be actuated simultaneously.
There are the following types, for example: Polarised relay Current impulse relay Time relay Thermal relay

Magnetic Proximity Switches (Reed Switches)
Reed switches are actuated through a magnetic field. In industrial applications, mostreed switches are used with LED displays.
The illustration shows a three-wire reed switch. It has three connections: One connection for the positive power supply One connection for the negative power supply One signal or switch output
The reed switch is attached directly to the body of a cylinder. It is actuated by amagnetic ring on the cylinder piston.
When the magnetic ring moves past the reed switch, the switching contacts areclosed as a result of the magnetic field and thus provide an output signal.

Control Chain
The structure of the control chain supports: The allocation of components with comparable functions to a group of elements. The avoidance of lines crossing each other in pneumatic and electrical circuit
diagrams. The preparation of clearly structured and uniformly designed circuit diagrams.
The principle of the control chain should be understood as being only a guideline.The signal flow of the control system defines the structure of the control chain: In the pneumatic circuit diagram, the signal flow is represented from bottom to
top. In the electrical circuit diagram, the signal flow is represented from top to
bottom.

Direct Actuation of a Single-Acting Cylinder
After actuating S1, current flows through the coil 1Y1, which switches the valve 1.1.
Compressed air flows from port 1 to port 2, and the piston rod advances.
If S1 is no longer actuated, there is no current through coil 1Y1. Valve 1.1 switchesback into the initial position.
The cylinder is vented through port 3 of valve 1.1, and the piston rod retracts.

Electrical Memory Circuit Dominant Set
A relay can be held in the switched condition if a holding current path is switched inparallel to the ON pushbutton through an internal normally-open contact in therelay.
An OFF pushbutton must be built into the memory circuit. The installed position of the OFF pushbutton determines the function of the memory circuit.
A memory circuit in which a pushbutton (S2, normally-closed) is connected in serieswith a relay holding contact (normally-open) is a dominating set memory circuit.
In this dominating set memory circuit, the pushbutton S1 dominates the pushbuttonS2.
If S1 and S2 are pressed simultaneously, current flows through the relay coil K1.

Electropneumatic Memory Circuit with Double Solenoid Valve
Double solenoid valves are also called bistable valves or memory valves: The valve illustrated is actuated by two solenoid coils. The valve retains the switched position brought about through energising one of
the coils, even when the signal to switch the valve is cancelled. The switched position is reversed only when a signal is applied to the opposite
coil or a manual override is operated. To reverse the switched position, a signal only needs to be applied to one coil.

The Electropneumatic Circuit Diagram
The pneumatic and electrical parts of an electropneumatic circuit diagram areprepared separately, but their contents are closely related.
In the pneumatic part, signal flow is presented from bottom to top.
In the electrical part, signal flow is presented from top to bottom.
In the electrical circuit diagram, the current paths are numbered consecutively fromleft to right.
The common circuit diagram elements form the interfaces between the pneumaticand the electrical circuits. In this case, they are the coils 1Y1 and 2Y1, as well as thelimit sensors 1B1, 1B2, 2S1 and 2S2.

Displacement-Step Diagram
In a displacement-step diagram, the motion sequences of an actuator in a controlsystem are presented graphically: Movements of the cylinder within a step are represented by a line moving
diagonally upwards (advancing) or downwards (retracting). Horizontal lines represent the position of the cylinder in the advanced or
retracted end position. If the movements of several actuators are to be represented, they are arranged
under each other for every individual step. This arrangement clarifies the relationship between the movements of the
individual actuators in every step.

Checklist for the Terminal Connection Diagram
In the preparation of a terminal connection diagram, the structure of the controlshould be checked once again: Is every current path connected to the positive +24V bus bar through a terminal? Is every current path connected to the negative 0 V bus bar through a terminal? Are all external components, such as switches, sensors and valve coils connected
with one terminal per connection to the current circuit? Are all connections to the +24 V and 0 V shown in the terminal connection
diagram? Are all external components included in the terminal connection diagram
provided with their connection identifications? Check all current paths systematically and complete the terminal connection
diagram. Note that not all connections such as the relay contacts, for example must be
included in the terminal connection diagram.
Enter all external components with thedesignation of the connection in theterminal connection diagram.
Systematically check all current pathsand complete the wiring diagram.
Not all of the connections have to beentered in the wiring diagram(e.g. relay connections are exempt).
Note:
Each current path must be connectedto the positive +24 V rail via a terminal.
Each current path must be connectedto the negative 0 V rail via a terminal.
External components, such as switches,sensors and solenoids are eachconnected via one terminal per unit.
Identify the connection point for +24 Vand 0 V in the wiring diagram.

Protective Circuits for Inductive Loads
If the current flowing to an inductive load, for example, a solenoid coil, isinterrupted, the magnetic field collapses.
A high induction voltage can be generated which can have the following effects: Damage to the coil insulation Burning of contacts
This can be avoided through protective circuits using diodes.

Alterable Controls
Relay-controlled systems are hard wired. The relay control can be replaced in wholeor in part by a programmable controller.
The structure of a system that is controlled via a programmable logic controller (PLC)is similar to that of a relay-controlled system. Both systems can be subdivided asfollows: Signal input Signal processing Signal output
The signal processing part is the part that can be hard wired or freely programmable.
