• Seminars

The hardware consists of didactically designed industrial components and systems.

The didactic, methodological design of the teachware is harmonised with the

training hardware and comprises:

• Textbooks (with exercises and examples)

• Workbooks (with practical exercises, additional information, solutions and data

sheets)

• Overhead transparencies and videos (to create an interesting and lively training

environment)

Tuition and training media are available in several languages and are suitable for

use both in the classroom and for self-tuition.

This workbook is a component part of the Learning System for Automation and

Technology of Festo Didactic GmbH & Co. KG. This system provides a solid basis for

practice-oriented vocational and further training. Technology package TP200 is

comprised exclusively of electropneumatic control systems.

Basic Level TP201 is suitable for basic training in electropneumatic control

technology and provides knowledge regarding the physical fundamentals of

electropneumatics and the function and use of electropneumatic equipment. The

equipment set enables you to construct simple electropneumatic control systems.

Advanced Level TP202 focuses on further training in electropneumatic control

technology. The two equipment sets enable you to construct complex combinational

circuits with logic operations of input and output signals and program controls

Prerequisite for the assembly of control systems is a fixed workstation using a Festo

Didactic profile plate, consisting of 14 parallel T-slots with 50 mm spacing. A short-

circuit protected power supply unit (input: 230 V, 50 Hz, output: 24 V, max. 5 A) is

used for DC voltage supply. A mobile, silenced compressor (230 V, maximum 8 bar

(800 kPa) can be used for compressed air supply.

Working pressure must not exceed a maximum of p = 6 bar (600 kPa).

Optimum operational reliability is achieved if the control system is operated

unlubricated at a working pressure of p = 5 bar = 500 kPa.

The equipment set of Basic Level TP201 is used to construct complete control

systems for all of the 12 problem definitions. The theoretical fundamentals to help

you understand this collection of exercises can be found in the textbook

• Electropneumatics

Also available are data sheets in respect of the individual devices (cylinders, valves,

measuring devices, etc.).

The following advice should be observed in the interest of your own safety:

• Pressurised air lines that become detached can cause accidents. Switch off

supply immediately.

• Do not switch on compressed air until tubing is securely connected.

• Caution!

Cylinders may advance automatically as soon as the compressed air is switched

on.

• Do not operate an electrical limit switch manually during fault finding (use a

tool).

• Observe general safety regulations. (DIN 58126 and VDE 100).

• With electrical limit switches you need to distinguish between two designs

– Actuation from the left

– Actuation from the right.

• At high piston speeds, limit switches must be approached only in the designated

direction of the trip cam of the cylinder. Limit switches must not be actuated from

the front.

• Do not exceed the permissible working pressure (see data sheets).

• Only use extra-low voltage ≤ 24V.

• All components are equipped with 4 mm safety sockets, i.e. jack plugs. Only use

cables with jack plugs for the electrical connections.

• Pneumatic circuit assembly:

Connect devices using the silver-metallic plastic tubing of 4 mm outer diameter,

the tubing is plugged into the push-in fitting up to the stop; no need for securing!

• Releasing of push-in fitting:

The tubing can be released by pressing down the releasing ring (disconnection

under pressure is not possible!)

• Switch off compressed air supply and power supply prior to dismantling the

circuit.

Notes on safety and operation

• The mounting plates of the devices are equipped with mounting variants A to D:

Variant A, latching system

For lightweight non-loadable devices (e.g. directional control valves). Simply clip

the device into the slot in the profile plate. Devices can be released by pressing

the blue lever.

Variant B, rotary system

Medium weight loadable devices (e.g. actuators). These devices are clamped

onto the profile plate by means of T-head bolts. Clamping and releasing is

effected by means of the blue knurled nut.

Variant C, screw system

For heavy loadable devices rarely removed from the profile plate (e.g. On/off

valves with filter regulating valve). These components are mounted by means of

socket head screws and T-head bolts.

Variant D, plug-in system

Lightweight non-loadable devices with locking pins (e.g. indicating devices).

These devices are attached by means of plug-in adapters.

• The data for the individual devices, as specified in the data sheets in Part D, must

be observed.

• Training aims

The overall aim of this collection of exercises is the systematic design of circuit

diagrams and practical assembly of a control system on a profile plate. This

direct interaction of theory and practice ensures quick progress with learning.

The detailed training aims are documented in the table. Actual individual training

aims are allocated to each problem and major training aims are shown in

brackets.

• Time required

The time required to work through a problem depends on the trainee’s prior

knowledge. Skilled workers in the engineering and electrical fields require

approximately 2 weeks. Technicians or engineers require approximately 1 week.

• Components of the equipment set

The book of exercises and equipment set are harmonised. You will require the

components of the equipment set for Basic Level TP 201 and Advanced Level

TP202. Each of the Advanced Level exercises can be assembled on a profile plate.

For exercise 11 you will require an additional electrical input or will need to

assemble the circuit in a different form.

• Representation

Abbreviated notation and motion diagrams are used for the represention of

motion sequences and switching statuses.
