8.11. By-pass function
Application
The by-pass function is used, e.g. for district heating pipelines. Under high pipeline
pressure, the gate valve of the main valve cannot be used, pressure compensation
via by-pass valve is therefore required.
Requirements
●
<Additional inputs> or additional <Parallel interface>.
Function
Two MOVs – one main valve and one by-pass valve – are linked via enable signals
Bypass Sync In and By-pass Sync Out. Operation commands can only be executed
if one of the two actuators sends the enable signal to the other device. Enable
depends on the end position.This ensures that only the following operation commands
may be executed:
●
The main valve can only be operated in directions OPEN or CLOSE if the by-
pass valve is in end position OPEN.
