Mounting and start-up
For tight-closing valves, the maximum signal
pressure pst
max
is roughly estimated as fol-
lows:
pst
max
= F+
d²·π·∆p
[bar]
4 · A
d = Seatdiameter[cm]
∆p = Differential pressure across the valve
[bar]
A = Actuatorarea[cm²]
F = Upper bench range value of the actuator
[bar]
If there are no specications, calculate as
follows:

5.13.4 Signal pressure (output)
The signal pressure at the output (38) of the
positioner can be restricted to approx.
2.4barbysettingP9 parameter code to
ON.
5.14 Electrical connections
For electrical installation, observe the rele-
vant electrotechnical regulations and the ac-
cident prevention regulations that apply in
thecountryofuse.InGermany,theseare
the VDE regulations and the accident pre-
vention regulations of the employers’ liability
insurance.
Risk of fatal injury due to the formation of
an explosive atmosphere.
The following regulations apply to installation
in hazardous areas: EN60079-14
(VDE0165, Part1) Explosive Atmospheres–
Electrical Installations Design, Selection and
Erection.
Incorrect electrical connection will render the
explosion protection unsafe.
− Adhere to the terminal assignment.
− Do not undo the enameled screws in or on
the housing.
− Do not exceed the maximum permissible
values specied in the EC type examina-
