INTRODUCTION

This manual covers the requirements for safe installation, repair, and operation of the SVI FF positioner as it relates to operation in areas where there is a potential for explosive atmosphere or flammable dust. Adherence to these requirements assures that the SVI FF positioner will not cause ignition of the surrounding atmosphere. Hazards related to control of the process are beyond the scope of this manual.

For mounting instructions on specific valves refer to the mounting instructions supplied with the mounting kit. Mounting does not affect the suitability of the SVI FF positioner for use in a potentially hazardous environment.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

Installation and maintenance must be performed only by qualified personnel. Area Classification, Protection Type, Temperature Class, Gas Group, and Ingress protection must conform to the data indicated on the label.

Wiring and conduit must conform to all local and national codes governing the installation. Wiring must be rated for at least 10ºC above the highest expected ambient temperature.

Approved wire seals against ingress of water and dust are required and the NPT fittings must be sealed with tape or thread sealant in order to meet the highest level of ingress protection.

Where the protection type depends on wiring glands, the glands must be certified for the type of protection required.

The metal housing is a die-casting alloy which is predominately aluminum. “X” Marking is on label.

Before powering the SVI FF positioner:

Verify that the pneumatic and electronic cover screws are tightened. This is important to maintain the ingress protection level and the integrity of the flameproof enclosure.

If the Installation is Intrinsically safe, then check that the proper barriers are installed and the field wiring meets local and national codes for an IS installation. Never install a device, which was previously installed without an intrinsically safe barrier, in an intrinsically safe system.

If the pneumatic system is powered by a combustible gas then the installation must be treated as Zone 0 or DIV I.

In non-incendive installation, check to ensure all electrical connections are made to approved circuits which meet local and jurisdictional installation codes.

Verify that the markings on the label are consistent with the application.

Verify that the air supply pressure can not exceed the marking on the respective label.

!WARNING!

Failure to adhere to the requirements

listed in this manual may cause loss

of life and property.

PV 1-5VDC (+) and (-) Terminals 8.4

The Process Transmitter and the SVI FF positioner’s PV Input are both barrier protected. The transmitter 4 to 20 mA signal is converted to 1 to 5 Volts at the Transmitter barrier. The 1 to 5 volt signal is monitored by the DCS and used by the SVI FF positioner for the embedded process controller. The sense resistor may be in the barrier or in the Digital Control System. The Process Transmitter must be approved for use with the Process Transmitter Barrier. An example of a suitable barrier is MTL 788 or 788R An example of the PV INPUT barrier is MTL 728. Entity Parameters of the PV terminals:

Vmax = 30 Vdc; Imax = 125 mA; Ci = 1 nF; Li = 0 uH; Pmax = 900 mW

SW (+) and (-) Terminals 8.5

There is one solid state switch contact output on the SVI FF positioner. It is labeled SW. The switch is polarity sensitive – that is, conventional current flows INTO the plus terminal. Entity parameters are: Vmax = 30 Vdc Imax = 125 mA Ci = 4 nF Li = 10 uH Pmax = 500 mW

REMOTE (1) and (2) and (3) Terminals

8.6

The REMOTE terminals deliver reference Voltage to an optional remote position sensing potentiometer. Current, Voltage, and Power are limited by the SVI FF positioner. The REMOTE terminals entity parameters are the parameters of the 4 to 20 mA INPUT barrier. The SVI-II REMOTE MOUNT is approved for use as a remote position sensing device with the SVI FF positioner.

Entity parameters of the Remote Terminals are: Uo/Voc = 6.5 Volts Io/Isc = 9.6 mA Ca = 22 uF La = 300 mH Connect only to suitable potentiometer.

Digital In Terminals

8.7

The Digital In terminal is suitable for direct connection to a passive switch.

Entity Parameters are:

Uo/Voc = 5.35 Volts Io/Isc = 50.6 mA Ca = 1.25 uF La = 2 mH

Connect only to passive dry contact simple apparatus.
