Manufactured by Bürkert, typically as a Type 8690 or 8697, it controls the valve actuator and delivers reliable position indication throughout the process cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFitted to a 210X actuator, the unit manages pneumatic actuation of process valves, provides open and closed position feedback, and handles solenoid pilot control. It integrates directly into plant automation systems such as PLC or DCS setups, giving operators clear oversight of valve status and precise control across the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstruction combines an engineering thermoplastic housing with a transparent polycarbonate cover, allowing position status to be read at a glance. Stainless steel fasteners and pneumatic fittings, along with the internal electronic and pneumatic components, keep the unit dependable in demanding process environments. The polymer housing withstands moisture and washdown conditions, making it well suited to clean and hygienic systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe unit fits a range of Bürkert ELEMENT process valves, including 2100 angle-seat valves and 2103 diaphragm valves, giving plant engineers flexibility across different valve types on a single automation standard. Environmental protection to IP65 and IP67 keeps out dust and water in wet or dusty locations, while ATEX and IECEx versions cover hazardous area installations. RoHS compliance and an EU Declaration of Conformity support use across regulated industries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eApplications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePharmaceutical manufacturing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBiotechnology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFood and beverage processing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChemical processing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater treatment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndustrial process automation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClean and hygienic process systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSummary:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePneumatic control unit and valve top control for 210X actuators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured by Bürkert, typically Type 8690 or 8697\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManages pneumatic actuation, open and closed position feedback, and solenoid pilot control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrates with PLC and DCS plant automation systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits Bürkert ELEMENT process valves, including 2100 angle-seat and 2103 diaphragm valves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngineering thermoplastic housing with transparent polycarbonate cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel fasteners and pneumatic fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP65 and IP67 environmental protection, with ATEX and IECEx versions available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoHS compliant with EU Declaration of Conformity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Flocon","offers":[{"title":"210X","offer_id":58857094218112,"sku":"123.227220","price":377.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0524\/4531\/5228\/files\/Pneumatic_20Control_20Unit_20Top_20Actuator.jpg?v=1788489586","url":"https:\/\/www.flocon.co.uk\/products\/pneumatic-control-unit-top-actuator","provider":"Flocon Valves Pipes \u0026 Fittings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
