Command signal input:
The solenoid current behaves proportional to the 
command signal amplitude.
Details are shown from the technical specifications.
 
  The command input signal needs to be fil-
tered as well as free of inductive surges and 
modulations. Due to the sensitivity of the 
valve a high signal quality is recommended, 
this will prevent malfunction.
  Incorrect signal amplitude levels may disturb 
the functionality and can damage the valve.
  The option 4...20 mA uses the “0 mA“ con-
dition as breakdown-information. This means 
the presence of an evaluable failure infor-
mation if the input signal line is interrupted. 
In this case the actuator drive will be swit-
ched off. The drive will switch on when the 
input signal reaches a value of 3.8 mA, it 
switches off when the command falls below 
3.6 mA. This determination follows the NA-
MUR-specification NE43.
  NAMUR is an association of users of process 
control technology.
Electrical Interfacing
 
Supply Voltage:  
The supply voltage for the valve has to cover the 
range of 18...30 V. The residual ripple may not 
exceed 5 % eff.
 
  The applied power supply must comply to the 
relevant regulations (DIN EN 61558) and must 
carry a CE-mark. The operating voltage for the 
valve must be free of inductive surges. Do not 
exceed the max. value of 30 V! Non-observance 
of this rule may result in permanent damaging 
of the valve.
   The increased inrush current of the valve 
should be considered when selecting the 
power supply. A stabilized power supply with 
overcurrent limiting feature should not be 
used. Due to the inrush current of the valve the 
current limit circuit may respond prematurely 
and create problems during energizing of the 
supply voltage.
  The operation of the valve is blocked if the 
supply voltage polarity is interchanged.
  Each valve requires a separate pre-fuse (ra-
ting: s. techn. data). Non-observance of this 
instruction may create irreparable damage of 
valve resp. incorporated system parts.
