Bürkert Type 8681 – Control Head for Decentralised Automation of Hygienic Process Valves

Bürkert Type 8681 – Control Head for Decentralised Automation of Hygienic Process Valves

Product Code: Type 8681 - Control head

Manufacturer: Bürkert


The Bürkert Type 8681 control head is optimised for decentralised automation of hygienic process valves. Thanks to its universal adapter it can be combined  with all normal commercial butterfly valves,  ball valves, single and double seated valves. With a decentralised automation concept, the control head takes over all pneumatic actuation, feedback and diagnostic functions up to and including field bus communication. The housing is easy to clean and features proven electrical IP protection and chemically resistant materials for use in hygienic processinin food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries.

Depending on the process valve type, up to 3 pneumatic actuator chambers can be controlled independently from each other. The switching speeds of both movement directions can be set separately. A built-in check valve prevents incorrect switching of process valve actuator chambers which could result from back-pressure.
