Design and Method of Operation
The following chapter describes the mechanical and electrical design,
the instrument components and method of operation of the positioner.
2.1Overview
Introduction
The electropneumatic positioner forms a control system in connection
with an actuator. The current position of the actuator is detected by a
servo potentiometer and fed back as actual value x. The setpoint and
actual value are output simultaneously on the display.
The setpoint w is formed by a current fed to the positioner which at the
same time serves to supply the positioner in two-wire operation. In 3 /
4-wire operation the supply comes from a 24 V voltage input.
The positioner operates as a predicative five--point switch by the output
variable ±Dy of which the integrated actuating valves are controlled with
pulse length modulation.
2
These actuating signals cause fluctuations in pressure in the actuator
chamber(s) and thus adjustment of the actuator until the control error is
zero.
Operation (manual) and configuration (structuring, initialization and parameterization) is effected by three keys and a display with the housing
cover removed.
The standard controller has one digital input (DI1). This can be configured individually and can be used for blocking the operating levels for
example.
With the J
as a two wire signal J
In addition the actuator can be monitored for two programmable limit
values which respond on exceeding or dropping below the stroke or
angle of rotation.
The limit value alarms are output by the alarm option module which can
monitor and report the function of the positioner and the actuator additionally through a fault message output. The value of the control difference dependent on the floating time is monitored in automatic mode.
The fault signal is always set when the control error cannot be leveled
after a certain time because for example the valve is blocked or the
mains pressure is insufficient. The three digital outputs are implemented as semiconductor outputs and are error self--reporting, i.e. the out-
-option module, the current actuator position can be output

=4to20mA.

puts respond even when the power supply fails or the electronics are
defective.
The actuator can also be blocked or driven to its final positions depending on the configuration for example by an external event via a digital
input (DI2) on the alarm module.
If you require electrically independent limit value messages from the
standard controller, you will have to use the SIA module with the slot
initiators instead of the alarm module.
Communication with the controller is possible via the optional HART
interface.

2.2.4 Mounting Kit
The positioner can be mounted on almost all actuators with the appropriate mounting kit.
2.2.5 Purge air switching (not in the explosion proof version)
The purge air switch is accessible above the pneumatic terminal strip
with the housing open (figure 2-6). In the IN position the inside of the
housing is purged with very small amounts of clean, dry instrument air.
In the OUT position the purge air is fed directly to the outside air.

with cover open
2.2.6 Restrictors
In order to achieve floating times of > 0.5 s in small actuators, the air
rate can be reduced with the restrictors Y1 and Y2 (figure 2-7, in
explosion proof version, see figure 2-4, page 18). By turning to the right
the air rate is reduced up to shutting off. To set the restrictors it is
advisable to close them and then open them slowly (see initialization
RUN3).

Design and Functional Principle
2.3Method of Operation
The electropneumatic positioner SIPART PS2 forms a control circuit
with the pneumatic actuator in which the actual value x is the position
of the actuator bar in linear actuators or the position of the actuator
shaft in rotary actuators and the command variable w is the actuating
current of a controller or a manual control station of 4 to 20 mA.
The stroke or rotary movement of the actuator is transferred by the
appropriate mounting accessories, the feedback shaft and a play--free
switchable gearwheel to a high quality conductive plastic potentiometer
and to the analog input of the microcontroller .
This may correct the angle error of the stroke tap, compares the
potemtiometer voltage as actual value x with the setpoint w fed in at
the terminals 3 and 7 and calculates the manipulated variable
increments Δy. Depending on the size and direction of the control
error (x-w) the piezo--controlled supply air or exhaust air valve is
opened. The volume of the actuator integrates the positioning
increments to actuating pressure y open which moves the actuator bar
or actuator shaft approximately proportionally. These positioning
increments change the actuating pressure until the control error
becomes zero.
The pneumatic actuators are available in single and double action
versions. Only one pressure chamber is aerated or deaerated in the
single action version. The resulting pressure operates against a spring.
In the double action version, two pressure chambers are counteractive.
In this case the one volume is deaerated when the other volume is
aerated. See the block diagram figure 2-9, page 24.
The control algorithm is an adaptive predicative five--point switch (see
figure 2-8, page 23).
The valves are controlled with continuous contact at large control errors
(fast action zone). At medium control errors the valve is controlled by
pulse length modulated pulses (slow action zone).
No actuating pulses are output in the small control error zone (adaptive
dead zone). The dead zone adaptation and the continuous adaptation
of the minimum pulse lengths in automatic operation cause the best
possible control accuracy to be achieved at the lowest switching frequency. The start parameters are determined during the initialization
phase and stored in a non--volatile memory. These are basically the
real actuating path with the mechanical limit stops, the floating times,
the size of the dead zone etc.
In addition the number of fault messages, changes in direction and the
number of strokes are determined and stored every hour during
operation. These parameters can be read out and documented by the
communication programs such as PDM and AMS. Conclusions as to
the wear on the fitting can be drawn (diagnostic function) especially by
comparing the old value with the currently determined values.

2.5.4 Alarm module
Function
NOTE
Operation on the positioner has priority over the settings via the HART
inetrface.
Communication is aborted by a power failure at the positioner.
The alarm module contains
- 3 digital outputs and
- 1 digital input
The digital outputs serve to output fault messages and alarms. The
configuration is described in chapter 4.4, page 79, with the parameters
44 to 54.
By an external signal applied at digital input (DI2) the actuator can be
blocked or driven to its limit positions for example depending on the
configuration. The configuration is described in chapter 4.4, page 79,
with the parameters 43.
30
The alarm module is available in two versions:
- explosion protected for connecting to switching amplifier DIN 19234
- non--explosion protected for connection to voltage sources with a
maximum 35 V
The semiconductor outputs of the alarm module report an alarm (signal
state Low) by switching off with high resistance. They are conductive in
the High state (without alarm). The dynamic control makes them error
self--reporting.
The outputs are potentially isolated from the basic circuit and each
other.
The digital input is double.
- one potential isolated for voltage level
- one not potential isolated for floating contacts
These two inputs are designed as logic OR links.

General
WARNING
!
To avoid injury or mechanical damage to the positioner/mounting kit,
the following order must be observed for assembly:
1. Mechanical fitting of positionerthis chapter
2. Connection of electric power supplysee chapter 3.4, p. 48
3. Connection of pneumatic power supplysee chapter 3.5, p. 56
4. Put into operationsee chapter 3.6, p. 57
Please also observe the warning on page 48!
SIPART PS2 Manual
A5E00074631-01
35
Preparing for Operation
.
!
NOTE
The positioner will be equipped at the factory and delivered complete
with the necessary options at the customer’s request. Options modules
may only be retrofitted by our service technicians.
The positioner must be assembled – especially in a moist environment
– in such a way as to rule out freezing of the positioner axle at low
ambient temperature.
The operating keys must be covered to prevent liquid getting in.
WARNING
In the combination of components it must be ensured that only
positioners and options modules are combined which are approved for
the respective area of application. This applies especially for safe
operation of the positioner in areas in which the atmosphere is
potentially explosive (zone 1 and 2). The instrument categories (2 and
3) of the instrument itself and those of its options must be observed.
In addition, you must always make sure that no water gets into an open
housing or screw--type gland. This may be the case for example when
the positioner cannot be finally assembled and connected immediately.
It generally applies that the positioner may only be operated with dry
compressed air. Therefore use the normal water traps. An additional
drying unit may even be necessary in extreme cases. This is
particularly important when operating the positioner at low ambient
temperatures. Please set the purge air switch (on the valve block
above the pneumatic terminals) additionally to the “OUT” position.
Use a sufficiently rugged console (e.g. plate thickness > 4 mm with
reinforcements) for rotary actuators and the mounting kit “linear
actuator” or integrated connection for linear actuators.
3.3.1 Instructions for using positioners in a wet environment
This information gives you important instructions for the assembly and
operation of the positioner in a wet environment (frequent, heavy rain
and/or prolonged tropical condensation) in which the IP65 degree of
protection is no longer sufficient and especially when there is a danger
that water may freeze.
To prevent water getting into the instrument in normal operation (e.g.
through the exhaust air openings) or the display being poorly legible,
please avoid the unfavorable installation positions illustrated in
figure 3-5.
36
SIPART PS2 Manual
A5E00074631-01
Figure 3-5 Favorable and unfavorable installation positions
If conditions oblige you to operate the positioner in a unfavorable
installation position, you can take additional precautionary measures to
prevent penetration by water.
Preparing for Operation
Procedure
.
NOTE
Never clean the positioner with a high pressure water jet because the
IP65 degree of protection is inadequate protection for this.
The necessary additional measures to prevent penetration by water
depend on the installation position chosen and you may additionally
require:
- screw--type gland with sealing ring (e.g. FESTO: CK –1 / 4–PK–6)
- plastic hose approx. 20 to 30 cm (e.g. FESTO PUN-- 8X1,25 SW)
- cable straps (number and length depends on local conditions)
- Connect the pipes in such a way that rain water which runs along
the pipes can drip off before it reaches the terminal strip of the
positioner.
- Check the electrical connections for perfect firm contact.
- Check the seal in the housing cover for damage and contamination.
Clean and replace if necessary.
- Mount the positioner if possible so that the sinter bronze silencer
faces downwards on the underside of the housing (vertical installation position). If this is not possible, the silencer should be replaced
by a suitable screw--type gland with a plastic hose.
Assembly of the screw--type gland with plastic hose
- Unscrew the sinter bronze silencer from the exhaust air opening on
the underside of the housing.
- Screw the screw--type gland mentioned above into the exhaust air
opening.
SIPART PS2 Manual
A5E00074631-01
37
Preparing for Operation
- Mount the above mentioned plastic hose on the screw--type gland
and check the good fit.
- Fix the plastic hose with a cable strap to the fitting so that the
opening faces downwards.
- Make sure that the hose has no kinks and the exhaust air can flow
out unhindered.
3.3.2Instructions for using positioners which are exposed to great
accelerations or vibrations
Great acceleration forces which may be far beyond the specified data
occur on fittings under great mechanical stress such as breaking flaps,
heavily shaking or vibrating valves as well as “steam impacts”. This
may lead to maladjustment of the slip clutch in extreme cases.
Please use the positioner with reinforced slip clutch for such
applications.
External
displacement
measurement
The increased torque requires a much greater force to actuate the slip
clutch.
Applications in which the measures described above are inadequate
are also conceivable. This applies for instance with continuous and
heavy vibration, increased or too low ambient temperatures and in the
case of nuclear radiation.
The separate attachment of position displacement sensor and
controller unit can help here. A universal component is available which
is suitable both for linear and rotary actuators.
You require the following:
- The position displacement sensor unit (order no. C73451A430-D78). This consists of a SIPART-PS2- housing with integrated
slip clutch, built--in potentiometer and various dummy plugs and
seals.
- The controller unit, any positioner version.
- The EMC filter plate, this is is a set together with cable clips and
M-20 screw--type cable gland and has the order number
C73451-A430-D23. The EMC filter plate must be installed in the
SIPART-PS2 positioner. The installation instructions enclosed with
the EMC filter plate explain how to assemble the components.
38
- A 3-wire cable for connecting the components.
This retrofit kit should always be used for the controller unit when any
actuator--mounted potentiometer (resistance 10 kohms) is to be used
instead of the position displacement sensor unit C73451-A430-D78.

NOTE
Any necessary options modules must be installed before electrical
connection (see chapter 2.5, page 25).
N.B.: The transmission ratio selector can only be set when the
positioner is open. Therefore check this setting before sealing the
controller.
WARNING
For the electrical installation, please observe the pertinent regulations,
in hazardous areas particularly the rules and regulations for the
installation and operation of systems in hazardous areas (e.g. in
Germany: Elex V, VDE 0165)
The explosion proof positioner may only be supplied with electrical
power in areas in which the atmosphere may be potentially explosive
when the housing is closed.
The feed--though openings in the explosion proof version for the
electronic connections must be sealed with EEX-d certified cable
glands or EEx-d certified plugs or an ignition lock must be mounted at
a maximum distance of 46 cm (18 inches) when using the
“conduit”-system.
The plastic housing is metal lined to increase the electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) against high frequency radiation. This screen is
connected electrically to the threaded bushes shown in figure 3-11,
page 49.
Please bear in mind that this protection can only be effective if you connect at least one of these bushes with grounded fittings by electrically
conductive (blank) mounting parts.

3.6Commissioning
Due to the wide range of application possibilities the positioner must be
adapted (initialized) to the respective actuator individually after assembly. This initialization can be effected in three different ways:
- Automatic initialization
Initialization takes place automatically Hereby the positioner determines the direction of action, the displacement path and the angle of
rotation, the adjusting times of the actuator one after the other and
adapts the control parameters to the dynamic behavior of the actuator.
- Manual initialization
The displacement path or angle of rotation of the actuator can be
set manually, the otehr parameters are determined as in automatic
initialization. This function is useful in actuators with soft limit stops.
- Copying initialization data (positioner exchange)
In the devices with HART function the initialization data of a positioner can be read out and copied to another positioner. This enables a
defective device to be changed without having to interrupt an ongoing process by initialization.
Preparing for Operation
.
.
Only a few parameters need to be set in the positioner prior to initialization. The others are defaulted so that they do not normally need to be
adjusted. You will have no problems with commissioning if you observe
the following points.
NOTE
You go to the previous parameter by pressing the operation mode key
and the decrement key simultaneously.
Without initialization the positioner is in operating mode P manual
operation (this may also be reached by ”PRST”) -- ”NOINI” flashes.
NOTE
N.B.: The operating pressure should be at least one bar greater than is
necessary for closing/opening the valve during initialization.
N.B.: The gear transmission switch can only be set when the
positioner is open. Therefore check this setting before sealing the
housing.

3.7Copying initialization data (positioner exchange)
With this function you have the possibility of starting up a positioner
without running the initialization routine. This allows for example a positioner to be changed on a running system in which automatic or manual
initialization cannot be performed without disturbing the process.
NOTICE
Initialization (automatic or manual) should be performed as soon as
possible afterwards because only then can the positioner be optimally
adapted to the mechanical and dynamic properties of the actuator.
Data are transmitted from the positioner to be replaced to the
replacement instrument via the HARTÒ- communication interface.
The following steps must be performed to exchange a positioner:
1.Read in and save instrument parameters and initialization data
(determined in initialization) of the instrument to be replaced with
PDM (Process Device Manager) or HARTÒ-Communicator. This
step is unnecessary if the instrument has been parameterized with
PDM and the data have already been stored.
2.Fix the actuator in its momentary position (mechanical or
pneumatic).
3.Read and note the current position actual value of the positioner to
be changed. If the electronics are defective, determine the current
position by measuring on the actuator or valve.
4.Disassemble the positioner. Mount the lever arm of the positioner
on the replacement instrument. Mount the replacement instrument
on the fitting. Move the gear switch to the same position as the
defective instrument. Copy the instrument data and initialization
data from the PDM or handheld.
5.If the displayed actual value does not match the noted value of the
defective positioner, set the correct value with the slip clutch.
6.The positioner is now ready to operate.
The accuracy and dynamic behavior may be restricted in relation
to correct initialization. The position of the hard stops and the related maintenance data may show deviations in particular. Therefore
initialization must be performed at the earliest opportunity.

Figure 4-1 shows you the various display options.
The positioner is operated by three keys (figure 4-2) the function of
which depends on the selected operating mode. In the explosion proof
version of the positioner the input keys are underneath a key cover
which can be lifted up after loosening the cover screw.
NOTE
The input keys of the explosion proof version must be covered to
prevent liquid getting in. The IP65/NEMA4x degree of protection is not
guaranteed when the housing is open or the key cover is open.
The housing cover must be removed to operate the keys in the normal

initialization
.
The display of the positioner shows you the current potentiometer
setting in the top line and ”NOINIT” flashes in the second line. You can
move the actuator with the decrement and increment key. In order
to adapt the positioner to your actuator, you have to change to the
Configuration menu. See also chapter 3.6, page 57 “Commissioning”.
Output of alarms and position feedback is possible after successful initialization.
To go to the Configuration menu, press the operation mode key
for
at least 5 seconds. In the Configuration menu you can adapt the
positioner individually to your actuator and start initialization. Only a few
parameters need to be set in the positioner prior to initialization. The
others are defaulted so that they do not normally need to be adjusted.
You can block the Configuration menu against manipulation by an
appropriately parameterized and activated digital input. Which
parameters you need to set and all other parameters are explained in
chapter 4.4, page78Parameterization.
The configuration mode can be reported by outputting a
parameterizable fault message, a position feedback or output of limit
values A1 and A2 is not possible.
NOTE
If the electric power supply fails during configuration, the positioner
switches back to the first parameter after recovering the power supply,
values which have already been parameterized are retained. Without a
power failure you re--enter the configuration menu at the point you
exited it when you call the Configuration menu again.

NOTE
The positioner switches over to automatic mode automatically after an
electrical power failure.
The automatic mode is the normal mode. In this mode the positioner
compares the setpoint current with the current position and moves the
actuator until the control deviation reaches the parameterizable dead
zone. Error messages are output if this is not possible for various
reasons.
Diagnostic display

4.4Parameters
In this operating mode you can have the current operating data (such
as number of strokes, number of changes in direction, number of faults
messages, etc.) displayed (see table 3-1, page 91).
From the automatic or manual mode you go to the diagnostic display
by simultaneously pressing all three keys for at least two seconds.
See chapter 4.5, page 90 for further information.
NOTE
The respective operating mode (MAN or AUT) of the positioner is retained when you switch to the diagnostic display, i.e. in automatic operation the specified setpoint is still used for controlling and in manual
operation the position last reached is retained.
All the parameters of the positioner are listed in this chapter. Figure 4-6

Operation
1.YFCT
2.Y AGL
Positioning actuator type
Selection of used actuator: Linear actuator (WAY), rotary actuator
(turn). The unlinearity which exists in linear actuators due to the
conversion of linear movement to rotational movement is compensated
by the positioner when 1.YFCT = WAY is selected.
If an external, linear potentiometer is used for displacement measuring,
“1.YFCT” is set to LWAY. However, no way is displayed after
initialization.
Special case: Use this setting for rotary actuators with reverse
direction of action as well.
When using a rotary actuator with NCS sensor for position detection,
select 1.YFST = ncST or --ncST
Rated angle of rotation of the feedback shaft
In rotary actuators, an angle of 90° is preset automatically by 1.YFCT =
turn (see above). In linear actuators (1.YFCT = WAY) a value of 33° or
90° can be selected depending on the stroke range:
- 33° for strokes £ 20 mm
- 90° for strokes > 20 mm
When using the lever up to 35 mm, both angles of rotation (33° and
90°) are possible.
3.YWAY
.
.
The long lever (> 35 mm stroke) is only designed for an angle of
rotation setting of 90°. It is not part of the mounting kit set 6DR4004-8V
but must be ordered separately under order number 6DR4004-8L.
NOTE
The setting of the transmission ratio selector on the positioner (see
figure 2-1, page 16 and figure 2-2, page 17) must correspond to the
angle value selected under “2.YAGL”.
Lever arm transmission
NOTE
The use of this parameter is optional. You only need to set this
parameter if you want to have the way in mm displayed at the end of
the initialization.
Selection of the lever arm range: serves to display the real stroke after
initialization.
This parameter is only relevant for linear actuator. If the parameter
value ”oFF” is selected here, the real stroke is not displayed after
initialization.

NOTE
The specification “YWAY” must match the mechanical lever arm transmission. The carrier must be set to the value of the actuator stroke, if
this is not scaled to the next highest scaled value.
Automatic initialization (see chapter 3.6, page 57)
By selecting “Strt” and pressing the increment key
seconds, automatic initialization is started. The initialization process is
displayed by “RUN 1” to “RUN 5” (see figure 3-24, page 68 to figure
3-27, page 71).
If the positioner is already initialized, it can be switched over to the
uninitialized status without changing the other parameters by pressing
the decrement key (
Manual initialization
By selecting “Strt” and pressing the increment key
seconds, manual initialization is started. The manual initialization
process is described in chapter 3.6.6, page 66.

Current range of the setpoint
The selection of the current range depends on the connection type.
”0mA” (0 to 20 mA) is only possible in three-/four--wire connections
(see figure 3-15, page 51).
Setpoint direction (see figure 4-7, page 82)
The setting of the setpoint direction serves to reverse the direction of
action of the setpoint. It is used mainly for the split range mode and in
single--acting actuators with the safety position “up”.
Split range start (see figure 4-7)
and
Split range end (see figure 4-7)
The parameters “8.SPRA” and “9.SPRE” in connection with the
parameter “7.SDIR” serve to restrict the active setpoint range. In this
way split range tasks can be solved with the following characteristics.
- rising / falling
- falling / rising

10.TSUP
Setpoint ramp UP
and
11.TSDO
Setpoint ramp DOWN
The setpoint ramp is effective in automatic operation and limits the
speed of alteration of the active setpoint. When switching over from
manual operation to automatic the active setpoint is adjusted to the setpoint on the positioner with the setpoint ramp.
This bumpless manual/automatic switchover avoids excessive pressure
increases on long pipelines.
In the position TSUP = Auto the slower of the two travel times determined during initialization is used for the setpoint ramp. TSDO is then ineffective.

Setpoint vertex points (see figure 4-8, page 83)
A flow parameter can be assigned to the respective setpoint vertex value at an interval of 5%. These points lead to a polygon chain with 20
straight lines which therefore represents a projection of the valve characteristic.
The setpoint vertex values can only be input at You may only enter a
strictly monotonous characteristic, the vertex values of which differ by
at least 0.2%. If the monotony condition has been infringed, an error
message appears as soon as you want to exit ”Configuration”. If you
need a falling characteristic you have to enter a rising characteristic
and reverse the direction of action by entering 7.SDIR = fall.
Dead zone of the controller
At dEbA = AUto the dead zone in automatic operation is adapted continuously to the requirements of the control circuit. The dead zone is gradually increased on detecting a control oscillation. The reverse adaptation takes place by a time criterion.
In the other discrete settings the fixed value is used for the dead zone.
Manipulated variable limiting start (see figure 4-8 and 4-9)
and
Manipulated variable limiting end (see figure 4-8 and 4-9)
37.YNRM
With the parameters “35.YA” and “36.YE” the mechanical actuating distance (from stop to stop) is limited to the set values. In this way the
mechanical setting range of the actuator can be limited to the active
flow and the integral saturation of the commanding controller avoided.
Manipulated variable standardization (see figure 4-8 and 4-9)
With limiting of the manipulated variable (by “35.YA” and “36.YE”) two
different scalings are produced for the display and the position feedback via the current output (MPOS or FLOW).
The MPOS scaling shows the mechanical position (0 to 100%) between the hard stops of the initialization. This is not affected by the parameters “35.YA” and “36.YE”. The parameters “35.YA” and “36.YE”
are displayed in the MPOS-scale.
The FLOW-scale is the standardization (0 to 100%) to the range between “35.YA” and “36.YE”. The setpoint w (0 to 100%) is always referred to this range. This gives (also by using valve characteristics) a
quasi--flow--proportional display and position feedback Iy.
To calculate the control difference, the setpoint is also shown in the appropriate scale on the display.

Function digital input 1 (see figure 4-6, page 79)
and
Function digital input 2 (see figure 4-6)
The parameters “42.BIN1” and “43.BIN2” can be set individually depending on the purpose. The direction of action can be adapted to an NCC
or an NOC.
- BIN1 or BIN2 = on or --on
Digital messages of the periphery (e.g. pressure or temperature
switches) can be read out via the HART interface or lead to responding of the fault message output by OR linking with other messages.
- BIN1 = bLc1
The Configuration operating level is locked to prevent it being adjusted (e.g. by a wire jumper between terminals 9 and 10).
- BIN1 = bLc2
If digital input 1 has been activated, manual operation is also locked
in addition to the Configuration operating level.
- BIN1 or BIN2 = uP or doWn (contact closes) or --uP or --doWn (contact opens).
The actuator drives the linear actuator to the upper or lower stop
when the digital input is activated with continuous contact.
- BIN1 or BIN2 (contact closes) = StoP or --StoP (contact opens).
With activated digital input the piezo--valves are blocked and the
actuator remains in the last position. Leakage messages can then
be executed without initialization function.

Alarm function
The actuator can report the exceeding (max.) or dropping below (min)
of a specified stroke or angle of rotation. The response of the alarms
(limit contacts) is related to the MPOS-scaling (see figure 4-9, page
85). The alarms are reported by the alarm module (order no.
6DR4004-6A or -8A). In addition the alarms can be read out through
the HART interface (optional).
The direction of action of the digital outputs can be adapted from high
active to low active sequence systems.
Response threshold alarm 1
and
Response threshold alarm 2
The alarm thresholds are related to the mechanical path (MPOS-scale).
Function of the fault message output
The fault message output serves as a group message for following
faults:
- Control error (e.g. by actuator fault, valve fault, compressed air failure) with the parameters “48.
TIM” and “49. LIM”
- Positioner not in automatic mode
48. TIM
49. LIM
- Digital input activated (see parameter “42.BIN1” and “43.BIN2”)
- Exceeding of a limit value (e.g. way integral or valve seat, see para-
meter50to54)
It also responds at:
- Power failure
- Processor fault
The direction of action of the digital outputs can be adapted from high
active to low active sequence systems.
Monitoring time for setting the fault messages
The set value (s) serves as a specification for the time within which the
positioner must have reached the controlled state. The corresponding
response threshold is specified with “49.
LIM”.
The fault message output is set on exceeding the set time.
Response threshold of the fault message
Here a value (%) can be set for the permissible variable of control error
for releasing the fault message.
If the parameters “48.
TIM” and “49. LIM” are both set to ”Auto”, the
fault message is set if the short step zone is not reached within a
certain time. This time is 5 times the initialization travel time within 5 to
95% of the actuating path and 10 times this time outside 10 to 90% of
the actuating path.

Limit value for monitoring the way integral
A limit value for the way integral can be set here. If the way integral
exceeds the limit value, the fault message output (optional) is activated.
This function enables a preventive maintenance of the fitting, see also
chapter 4.5 “Diagnostics”, page 90.
This monitoring function can be deactivated with the OFF setting

Limit value for monitoring the change of direction
A limit value for the direction change counter can be set here. If this
counter exceeds the limit value, the fault message output is activated.
This function enables a preventive maintenance of the fitting, see also
chapter 4.5 “Diagnostics”, page 90.
This monitoring function can be deactivated with the OFF setting

Tolerance value for monitoring the bottom hard stop
With this value a limit value (in percent related to the total mechanical
distance) can be preset for the monitoring of the bottom hard stop. If
this tolerance value is exceeded or dropped below of, the fault
message output (optional) is activated.
53. OPEN
This function detects when the bottom stop has changed by more then
the specified tolerance related to its initialization value. Monitoring
takes place when the valve is in sealing bottom. Activation of the
sealing bottom function (parameter “39.YCLS”) is therefore a
prerequisite.
The fault message remains activated until either a subsequent
monitoring remains within the tolerance or a new initialization is
performed.
This monitoring function can be deactivated with the OFF setting
(factory setting). See also chapter 4.5 “Diagnostics”, page 90.
Tolerance value for monitoring the top hard stop
With this value a limit value (in percent related to the total mechanical
distance) can be preset for the monitoring of the top hard stop. If this
tolerance value is exceeded or dropped below of, the fault message
output (optional) is activated.
This function detects when the top stop has changed by more then the
specified tolerance related to its initialization value. Monitoring takes
place when the valve is in sealing top. Activation of the sealing top
function (parameter “39.YCLS”) is therefore a prerequisite.
The fault message remains activated until either a subsequent
monitoring remains within the tolerance or a new initialization is
performed.

Store maintenance data
A store function is triggered by pressing the increment key
least 5 seconds. Here the diagnostic data 7 to 17 are stored in a non-volatile memory as ”Data of the last maintenance”. These diagnostic
data are selected values, the changes of which can provide information
on the mechanical wear of the valve.
Normally this function is operated via HART, e.g. with PDM, menu item
Instrument!Store maintenance info. It is possible to compare the data
of the last maintenance with the current data.

Some important variables and parameters are monitored continuously
during operation. In the “Configuration” operating mode you can configure this monitoring so that the fault message output is activated when
a certain event such as exceeding a limit value occurs.

Operation
Table 3-2, page 94 shows which events can activate the fault message
output, how the parameters must be set for this event to be monitored,
when the fault message disappears again and where the possible
causes of the fault lie.
In automatic and manual operation response of the fault message
output on the display shows which is the fault message trigger. The two
digits at the bottom left indicate the corresponding error code. If several
triggers occur at the same time, these are displayed cyclically. The
instrument status which also contains all fault messages can be called
via HART with the command #48.

A fault message is generated when the instrument is not in the automatic mode at the appropriate parameter setting “47.

been switched to manual operation or Configuration on site.

5Monitoring of number of changes of direction
The two values number of strokes and number of changes of direction
are compared continuously with the limit values which are specified
with the parameters “50.
STRK” and “51. DCHG”. The fault message
output responds when exceeded. Both functions can be deactivated
with the parameter setting ”OFF”.

Monitoring of the bottom hard stop is activated when the parameter

with this function for example. Exceeding of the limit value may hint at
deposits or foreign bodies in the valve seat. Exceeding the limit value
may be caused by wear of the valve seat. Mechanical maladjustment of
the position feedback may also trigger this error message.
Monitoring takes place every time the valve is in sealing position. The
current position is compared with the one determined during initialization as a bottom end stop. Activation of the sealing bottom function (parameter “39.YCLS”) is therefore a prerequisite.

Example: 3% is set as a value. Normally the setting 0% is adopted
when sealed. If a value >3% or <--3% is determined instead, a fault is
reported.

Operation
The fault message remains activated until either a subsequent
monitoring remains within the tolerance or a new initialization is
performed. The deactivation of the monitoring (“52.
clears any existing fault message.
This monitoring function supplies no useful results when the stops have
not been determined automatically in initialization but the limits set
manually (manual initialization“5.INITM”).
An appropriate diagnosis is made for the top hard stop. The limit value
for this is set with the parameter
. Activation of the sealing top function
(parameter “39.YCLS”) is therefore a prerequisite.
8Monitoring of the dead zone adaptation
If the dead zone increases unproportionally in operation in automatic
adaptation of the dead zone (parameter DEBA = Auto) this points to an
error in the system (e.g. a marked increase in stuffing box friction, play
in the displacement detection, leakage). Therefore a limit value can be
specified for this value (”54.
DEBA”, limit value for dead zone
monitoring) which activates the fault message output when it is
exceeded.

CareandMaintenance
Service a nd Maintenance
The positioner is largely maintenance--free. The positioners are fitted
with filters in the pneumatic connections as protection against coarse
particles of dirt. If the pneumatic energy supply contains particles of
dirt, the filters may clog and impair the function of the positioner. In this
case the filters can be cleaned as follows.
Positioner in metal housing and explosion proof version
1. Switch off the pneumatic power supply and remove the pipes.
2. Remove the metal filters carefully from the holes and clean (e.g.
with compressed air).
3. Insert the filters.
4. Re--connect the pipes and supply pneumatic energy.

Removal
1. Switch off the pneumatic power supply and remove the pipes.
2. Unscrew the cover
3. Remove the three screws from the pneumatic connector strip.
4. Remove the filters and O-rings behind the connector strip.
5. Clean the filters (e.g. with compressed air).
Installation
6. First insert the filters in the recesses in the plastic housing and then
place the O-rings on the filters.
7. Align the pneumatic connector strip on the two lugs and screw tight
with the three self--tapping screws.
Important:
Make sure that the same thread is used. To do this turn the screws
counterclockwise until they snap into the thread audibly. Only then
should you tighten the screws.
