5 Function and application
The control block for two-hand start is a pneumatic AND gate.
If pneumatic signals with a time offset of a maximum of 0.5 s are supplied to the ports (1.1) and (1.2),
an outlet signal is provided at the outlet port (2). Control is implemented using two external, manually
operated pushbutton valves.
– If both pushbutton valves are activated, the outlet port (2) is pressurised.
– If no or only one pushbutton valve is activated, the outlet port (2) is depressurised. The system
exhausts from port (2) to (3).
To trigger an additional outlet signal:
1. Release both pushbuttons.
2. Actuate the pushbutton again.

6 Installation
6.1 Mechanical installation
1. Place the control block for two-hand start in such a way that the filter of the venting hole
(èFig. 1,4) is not covered.
2. Mount the control block for two-hand control with 2 M5 mounting screws:
– Using through-holes (èFig. 1, 7) or
– Using mounting threads (èFig. 1, 5)
3. Install 3/2-way pushbutton valves (2x) (èFig. 2).
6.2 Pneumatic installation
Prerequisite:
– Use hoses with the same nominal width and length between the pushbutton valves and control
block for two-hand start.
1. Remove particles in the supply lines through appropriate measures.
2. Connect pneumatic connections according to the pneumatic circuit diagram of the system.
3. Optional: Use the silencer at the outlet port (3) (èFig. 2) èwww.festo.com/catalogue.
4. Clamp the hoses to the system.

7 Commissioning
7.1 Preparing for commissioning
1. Pressurise the system.
2. Set a minimum operating pressure of at least 4 bar.
3. Perform a functional test èChapter 7.2.
7.2 Functional testing
1. Make sure an operating pressure (p0) of at least 4 bar is present at both pushbutton valves.
2. Pressurise the inlets (1.1) and (1.2) according to the signal sequence shown in Fig. 3.
3. At every step, check whether the outlet port (2) is behaving as shown in Fig. 3.
The time offset between the inlet signals (steps 7 and 8) must be no more than 0.5 s.
Fig. 3 Functional test, step 1 to 15
Note
The maximum permissible time offset between the inlet signals (1.1) and (1.2) (steps 7
and 8) depends on the operating pressure and ambient temperature èTab. 8. The
higher the operating pressure and ambient temperature, the smaller the time offset
must be.

8 Fault clearance
If defects are noticed on the control block for two-hand start or its function, suitable
measures to maintain the safety level must be taken.
Malfunction Possible cause Remedy
The outlet port (2) is
depressurised even though
both inlets are pressurised at
the same time (t 0.5 s).
Inlet pressure too high  Reduce the inlet pressure
at(1.1) and (1.2)
Pressure reduction at outlet
port (2) takes too long.
Tubing connection error  Use short tubing
 Avoid elbow connectors
Silencer dirty  Clean or replace silencer
Air outlet at exhaust (3) if both
inlets are pressurised at the
same time (t 0.5 s).

The PFHdvalue of the subsystem (èFig. 4) can be calculated, for example, with SISTEMA1) using the
following values:
– Service-life value B10d= 2 x B10 (according to EN ISO 13849-1, Table C.1, Note 1)
– Average number of actuations per year (nop)
Fig. 4 PFHdvalue2) as a function of the average number of actuations per year nop
Note
Observe the operating time (T10d, according to EN ISO 13849-1, C.3) of the control
block for two-hand start.
The operating time is dependent on the service-life value (B10d) and the average
number of actuations per year (nop), and it may be shorter than the specified mission
time depending on your application èTab. 7. The control block for two-hand start must
be replaced by the end of the mission time at the latest.
