Statistical information
The positioner saves the cycles in a circular
buffer, which holds 100 measured values at
one time.
− The 'Average value e short' contains the
average class assignment of cycle
heights for the last 100 measured values.
Dening parameters
1. Select the type of stem seal.
When 'Other' is selected for 'Stufng
box', the additional parameter 'Max. cy-
cle counter limit' must also be set.
2. Select classication for status messages.

4.5.1 Analysis and monitoring
Analysis of the histogram starts directly af-
ter the change to manual or automatic
mode.
The load on the bellows and/or packing can
be read from the 'Dynamic stress factor' pa-
rameter. The value is determined from the cy-
cle spans or cycle heights and takes into ac-
count the type of packing used in the valve.
An 'External leakage' message is generated
with the selected status classication whenev-
er:
− The number of measured cycle spans ex-
ceeds 450000 when 'Self-adjusting' is
selected as the stem seal.
− The number of measured cycle spans ex-
ceeds 180000 when 'Adjustable pack-
ing' is selected as the stem seal.
− The number of measured cycle spans ex-
ceeds 90% of the 'Max. cycle counter
limit' when 'Other' is selected as the stem
seal.
− The number of measured cycle heights
exceeds 180000 when 'Bellows seal' is
selected as the stem seal.
