Authorised use
2 AUTHORISED USE
Unauthorized use of the solenoid coil AC19 may be dangerous
to people, nearby equipment and the environment.
▶The solenoid coil AC19 is used to activate valves which control
the gaseous or liquid media.
▶A valve controlled by the solenoid coil AC19 may be used solely
for the media specified in the data sheet and for use in explosion
group IIC category 2G and/or explosion group IIIC category 2D,
and temperature class T4 (refer to the specifications on the type
label for explosion-risk areas).
▶The solenoid coil may be used only for the applications designated
in chapter „6 Application conditions of the devices“ and in con-
junction with third-party devices and components recommended
and authorized by Bürkert.
▶The applied protection class is encapsulation Ex “m” for coils with
cable connection.
▶The ignition protection type for the optionally mounted terminal
box is “e” for gas and “t” for dust.
▶The faultless and reliable operation of the system assumes cor-
rect transportation, correct storage and installation as well as
careful operation and maintenance. Any other use is regarded as
unauthorized. Bürkert is not liable for any resulting damage. The
user alone bears the risk.
▶Only use the device for its intended purpose.
2.1 Explosion protection approval
The explosion protection approval is only valid if you use the modules
and components authorized by Bürkert, as described in these oper-
ating instructions.
The solenoid coil AC19 may be used only in combination with the
valve types released by Bürkert, otherwise the explosion protection
approval will be terminated. If you make unauthorized changes to the
system, the modules or components, the explosion protection approval
will also be void.

Basic safety instructions
3 BASIC SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
These safety instructions do not make allowance for any
• Contingencies and events which may arise during the installation,
operation and maintenance of the devices.
• Local safety regulations – the operator is responsible for observing
these regulations, also with reference to the installation personnel.
Danger – high pressure.
▶Before loosening the lines and valves, turn off the pressure and
vent the lines.
Risk of electric shock.
▶Before reaching into the device, switch off the power supply and
secure to prevent reactivation!
▶Observe applicable accident prevention and safety regulations
for electrical equipment!
Risk of burns and risk of fire if used during long-term operation
through hot device surface.
The solenoid coil can get very hot during long-term operation.
▶Keep the device away from highly flammable substances and media
and do not touch the device with bare hands.
Risk of explosion.
The solenoid coil and valve body form a closed system after installation.
When used in explosion-risk areas, there is a risk of explosion if the
system is opened in the operating state.
▶Do not remove or open the system during operation.
Risk of explosion due to electrostatic discharge.
In the event of a sudden discharge from electrostatically charged devices
or individuals, there is a risk of an explosion in the explosion-risk area.
▶Take suitable measures to ensure that no electrostatic discharges
can build up in the explosion-risk area.
▶Do not use the device in areas where there are powerful charge-
generating processes, mechanical reaming and cutting processes,
the spraying of electrons (e.g. in the vicinity of electrostatic coating
equipment) as well as pneumatically conveyed dust.
▶Clean the device surface by gently wiping it with a damp or anti-
static cloth only.
To avoid the risk of explosion, the following must be observed
for operation in explosion-risk areas:
▶Information on the temperature class, ambient temperature, degree
of protection and voltage on the type label for explosion-risk areas.
▶Installation, operation and maintenance may only be performed
by qualified specialists.
▶The applicable safety regulations (including national regulations)
as well as general technical standards must be observed during
setup and operation.

General information
▶Repairs may only be performed by the manufacturer.
▶The device must not be exposed to any mechanical or thermal loads
which exceed the limits specified in the operating instructions.
▶Before opening the terminal box, disconnect the power supply.
General hazardous situations.
To prevent injury, ensure:
▶Secure system/equipment against unintentional activation.
▶Observe the direction of flow during installation.
▶After an interruption in the power supply or pneumatic supply,
ensure that the process is restarted in a defined or controlled
manner.
▶Don’t use the device as a lever when screwing the valve into the
line.

Product description
5.2 Solenoid coil with cable outlet
The solenoid coil type AC19 is an electromagnetic valve actuator for
various Bürkert valves. As a so-called top-mounted coil, it is separated
100 % from the valve. The valve is a closed system even if the coil is
removed.
The solenoid coil consists of:
• coil winding,
• coil housing (made from epoxy),
• electrical connection cable,
• bridge rectifier.
Alternating current or direct current control is possible.
The solenoid coil type AC19 is available in a range of ratings distributed
across 2 frame sizes. The interface between the coil and valve is iden-
tical for both frame sizes.
The coil is placed over the core guide tube of the valve and attached
with a nut. It is positively locked to prevent turning relative to the valve.
The electrical connection cable exits perpendicular to the coil axis.
The cable is permanently integrated in the coil. The union nut is not
designed to be removed.
An electrical contact is made between the metal components of the
valve and the coil at the interface between the coil and the valve. All
metal components must be grounded via the protective conductor in
the connection cable.
5.3 Solenoid coil with terminal box
The design of the solenoid coil is identical to the description under
„5.2“, however a terminal box is also installed here (see „Fig. 2“).
The terminal box is certified with the Type Examination Certificate
PTB 15 ATEX 1011 U bzw. IECEx PTB 15.0037 U.
The cable outlet direction can be selected according to the order
requirements. The outlet direction can be changed subsequently,
however this requires a special tool1). Optionally a connection set is
enclosed for additional potential equalization; to do this, observe the
specifications in chapter „8.2“.
1) To do this, please contact your local Bürkert representative

6 APPLICATION CONDITIONS OF
THE DEVICES
6.1 Special conditions
6.1.1 Avoiding build-up of electrostatic
charge
WARNING!
Risk of explosion due to electrostatic discharge.
In the event of a sudden discharge from electrostatically charged devices
or individuals, there is a risk of an explosion in the explosion-risk area.
▶Take suitable measures to ensure that no electrostatic discharges
can build up in the explosion-risk area.
▶Do not use the device in areas where there are powerful charge-
generating processes, mechanical reaming and cutting processes,
the spraying of electrons (e.g. in the vicinity of electrostatic coating
equipment) as well as pneumatically conveyed dust.
▶Clean the device surface by gently wiping it with a damp or anti-
static cloth only.
6.2 Operating conditions
The valve provides a cooling function for the solenoid coil. The
solenoid coil may not be operated without a valve. The valve body
must meet the following requirements:
• Material
Metal (brass, aluminium, stainless steel) or polyamide
• Minimum dimensions
55 mm x 36 mm x 30 mm
A larger valve body with a higher heat-dissipating capability can be
used at any time.
6.3 Operating temperature range
Observe the operating temperature range specified in the electrical
data for all types.
