Pneumatic auxiliary power 
Owing to safety reasons, the pneumatic auxiliary power supply must be fed after installation 
only if the positioner is switched to the "P-manual mode" when an electrical signal is 
available, refer to the as-delivered condition.  
 
Note 
Specifications regarding air quality 
Observe the specifications regarding the air quality, see section "
Pneumatic data 
 236)". 
●  If required, connect the pressure gauge block for supply air and actuating pressure. 
●  Connection via female thread G¼ or ¼" NPT: 
–  Y1: actuating pressure 1 for single and double-acting actuators 
–  Y2: actuating pressure 2 for double-acting actuators 
–  Exhaust air outlet with a sound absorber at the bottom of the device. Remove the 
sound absorber if required. 
–  P
Z
: Supply air 1.4 to 7 bar 
●  For double-acting actuators, connect actuating pressures Y1 or Y2 depending on the 
desired safety position. Safety position in case of electrical auxiliary power supply failure: 
–  Y1: Single-acting, depressurized 
–  Y1: Double-acting, maximum actuating pressure 
–  Y2: double-acting, depressurized 
 
Note 
Leakage 
Besides continuous air consumption, the positioner may try to compensate the
 
position deviation due to leakage. This will lead to premature wear in the entire control 
unit.
 
  After installing the pneumatic connections, check the tightness of the entire control 
valve.
