Series 6A Operation & Maintenance – field Connections
6A O & M : 8
Connecting Pneumatic Supply Lines
Refer to the Technical Data portion of this manual for specifica-
tions regarding air quality.
The S6A is equipped with three pneumatic connections, Y1, Y2
and PZ. PZ is for the pneumatic supply and Y1 and Y2 are used
to supply the pneumatic actuator. The S6A can also be equipped
with a pressure gauge block for monitoring supply and actuating
pressure and a filter to ensure that the S6A is receiving clean air.
Proceed as follows to make the pneumatic connections:
Refer to Figure 2.

1. If required, connect the pressure gauge block for supply air
and actuating pressure.
2. Connect supply air to PZ.
Connection using female thread G1/4 DIN 45141
or 1/4" NPT:
• PZ supply air 20psi to 102psi (1.4 to 7 bar)
• Y1: actuating pressure for single and double-acting
actuators
• Y2: actuating pressure for double-acting actuators
• E: exhaust air outlet; remove the attenuator if required.
For double-acting actuators, connect actuating pressures
Y1 or Y2 depending on the desired safety position. The
three pneumatic connections will go to the following
safety position in case of electrical auxiliary power sup-
ply failure:
• Y1: single-acting, depressurized
• Y1: double-acting, max. actuating pressure/supply air
pressure.
• Y2: double-acting, depressurized
Note: Besides continuous air consumption, the positioner may
try to compensate the position deviation due to leakage. This
will lead to premature wear in the entire control unit. To prevent
this ensure that all pneumatic connections are properly sealed
and perform regular maintenance on their fittings.
