user through all routine tasks during operation. They can be used for
documentation purposes: They can be copied, applied, signed, and filed to
document the performance of the instrument.
It is very important to follow all instructions and SOP’s in this manual in
order to operate the instrument and accessories. This ensures proper results
and longevity of your equipment.

General Description
The Smartline Electric Valve Drives S 6, S 12, and S 16 are in design and
operation for the most part identical. They are devised for automatic control of the
6-port/3-channel-injection valve, 6-port/2-channel-switching valve, 7-port/1-
channel-switching valve by S 6 drive, the 13-port/1-channel-switching valve by
S 12 drive, and the 17-port/1-channel-switching valve by S 16 drive respectively.
The valve drive has to be adapted to the used valve by means of a set of DIP
switches at the bottom of the drive housing.
All KNAUER valve drives can be integrated into the Smartline Assistant 6000.
Valves with 2 positions
The 6-port/3-channel-injection valve and the 6-port/2-channel-switching valve can
be switched between the LOAD and INJECT position. Switching the positions can
be done with a 60° turn forwards or backwards.
Valves with 6 positions
The 7-port/1-channel-switching valve can be switched to 6 positions. Each switch
command will result in a 60° turn, so that the 6th switch command returns to the
first position.
Valves with 12 positions
The 13-port/1-channel-switching valve can be switched to 12 positions. Each
switch command will result in a 30° turn, so that the 12th switch command returns
to the first position.
Valves with 16 positions
The 17-port/1-channel-switching valve can be switched to 16 positions. Each
switch command will result in a 22.5° turn, so that the 16th switch command returns
to the first position.
Using remote or software control valves with more than two positions can be
switched to any one directly.

Unpacking
After unpacking, please check the device and accessories thoroughly for any
damage that may have occurred during transportation. If necessary, contact the
carrier to claim any damages.
Use the “Standard delivery list“ to check if the electric valve drive is complete.
Please contact our service department if anything is missing or if you need support.
It is important to fill out the guarantee card and return it to us as soon as possible.
Please remove the protection foil from the display!

Depending on the DIP positions the four connectors BIN 0 to BIN 3 can be used
alternatively for binary event control.

Operating the Valve Drive S 6/-12/-16
Power supply
The valve drive is equipped with a universal power supply unit which operates in a
range of 90 to 260 Volts AC. A manual setting of the supply voltage is, therefore,
not required.
Make sure that the main power supply is properly grounded and the correct
power cable is used.
The power supply for the drive is not included in the housing. Please connect the
power supply to the drive (item 4in Abb. 4). Then connect the power cable to the
power supply and the socket.
If required connect the ground connector 3to the corresponding ground contact of
any other grounded instrument.
Wait for at least 30 seconds before restarting the drive after switching it off.
Otherwise an error message will be displayed.
Mounting the valve
The Smartline Electric Valve Drives S 6/-12/-16 have to be used in combination
with one of the KNAUER-valves. For instructions on how to operate the valves
refer to the corresponding valve manuals.
SOP 1 Mounting the valve to the electric valve drive
1. Fix the adapter plate with the two M4 screws at the rear side of the valve.
2. Set the drive on position 1 respectively LOAD.
3. Push the valve on the driving axle on the front side of the instrument.
4. Take care that the mark on the valve matches this one above the wheel. The
valve position 1 must be on top.
5. Fix the valve and adapter plate with the two mounting screws.
If the position was not set on LOAD or 1, you will get the error message E 4
when starting the drive.
Configuring the Smartline Electric Valve Drive
At the bottom of the instrument the DIP-switches 1-4 (Abb. 5) are arranged. They
are needed to adapt the drive to the actual mounted valve.

Fig. 5 DIP-switches 1-4 at the drive bottom
DIP 1 adapts the two position or multi-position valve (S 6).
The valve drive S 12, exclusively used to control the 13-port/1-channel
switching valve, can only be operated with the DIP 1 switch in the ON
position!

Operating the Valve Drive S 6/-12/-16 9
The valve drive S 16, exclusively used to control the 17-port/1-channel
switching valve, can only be operated with the DIP 1 switch in the OFF
position!
Using DIP 2 the control mode is set to either FORWARD/ BACKWARD/HOME or
to the absolute position input. This will simultaneously activate the inputs BIN 0
through BIN 2.
The connector OUT/BIN3 can be used either as output or as input. The selection is
performed by setting DIP 3 and DIP 4.
The DIP-switches 3 and 4 always should be set in opposite positions.
Not all of the possible combinations of DIP positions are permitted when operating
the valve drive. If an improper DIP setting is used, an error message will appear
either when switching the drive on or when the valve is switched.
The DIP setting always has to be done with the drive switched off. Otherwise
the DIP positions will not become active.
