Summary

Safety Instructions

Prerequisites for Safe Handling

Ensures legal requirements, directives, and national regulations are met for assembly, electrical connection, commissioning, and operation.

Warnings and Notes

Highlights safety-relevant procedures marked with signal words like DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTICE.

Short Description

Actuator Controls Overview

Introduces AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2 actuator controls for operating AUMA actuators with various interfaces.

Operation

Local Control Operation

Describes how to operate the actuator using local push buttons and the selector switch.

Remote Operation

Explains remote operation via fieldbus interface, covering OPEN-CLOSE and setpoint control modes.

User Level and Password Management

Explains user levels, password entry, password changes, and timeouts for unauthorized access.

Indications

Display Indications

Explains status bar, navigation support, and feedback signals like valve position and torque.

Signals (Output Signals)

Status Signals via Output Contacts

Details assignment and coding of digital outputs for status signals like end positions and faults.

Analogue Signals (Analogue Outputs)

Covers assignment, signal range, and adjustment of analogue outputs for travel, torque, or speed.

Operation Modes

Operation Mode Local

Explains control via local push buttons and properties of push-to-run or self-retaining local operation.

Operation Mode Remote

Details remote control via parallel interface or fieldbus, including OPEN-CLOSE and setpoint control.

Emergency Operation Modes

Covers EMERGENCY, EMERGENCY stop, Disabled, and Service operation modes.

Basic Settings for Commissioning

Type of Seating for End Positions

Covers setting the type of seating (limit or torque) for end positions OPEN and CLOSED.

Torque Switching

Explains torque switching functions for overload protection and tripping in end positions.

Limit Switching

Details limit switching for tripping in end positions and signalling end positions.

Application Functions

Intermediate Positions

Defines up to 8 intermediate positions, their signal behaviour, and hysteresis settings.

Positioner (Remote SETPOINT)

Details positioner activation, adaptive behaviour, overrun, max error, dead time, hysteresis, and tolerances.

Process Controller Functions

Covers process controller activation, modulating behaviour (P, PI, PID), setpoint source, and failure behaviour.

Failure Functions

Reversing Prevention Time

Prevents impermissible operation states by defining an off-time between opposite direction commands.

Failure Behaviour on Loss of Signal

Defines actuator reaction to loss or defective signals, impacting operation modes Remote, Local, or Off.

EMERGENCY Behaviour

Determines actuator behaviour in emergency situations, initiated by an EMERGENCY signal.

Priority REMOTE

Allows control signals to prioritize REMOTE control over local controls, irrespective of selector switch position.

EMERGENCY Stop Function

Interrupts power supply in emergencies via an EMERGENCY stop button, resetting operation commands.

Partial Valve Stroke Test (PVST)

Tests actuator and control function by partial opening/closing within a defined time.

Monitoring Functions

Torque Monitoring

Monitors valve overload protection against excessive torques and provides torque warnings.

Motor Protection Monitoring (Thermal Monitoring)

Protects against overheating by monitoring PTC thermistors or thermoswitches in motor winding.

Reaction Monitoring

Checks if the actuator moves after receiving a command, issuing warnings or faults if no reaction.

Product Variants

Multiport Valve

Describes the multiport valve function, allowing direct access to valve ports without stopping at others.

Operate to Position from Remote

Covers direct operation to positions via fieldbus commands or digital inputs.

Service Functions

Firmware Update

Describes firmware update methods via Bluetooth or SD card for new functions or corrective actions.

Diagnostics

Position Transmitter Diagnostics

Provides diagnostics for potentiometers, RWG, and MWG position transmitters.

Asset Management

Maintenance Information and Signals

Monitors parameters affecting actuator wear, triggering maintenance signals and allowing interval configuration.

Corrective Action

Fault Indications and Warning Indications

Explains fault (red backlight) and warning (white backlight) indications and their remedies.
