General safety instructions
1 General safety instructions
For your own safety, follow these instructions concerning the mounting, start up and opera
tion of the control valve:
The control valves must be installed, started up and serviced by fully trained and qualified
4
personnel only, observing the accepted industry codes and practices.
Make sure employees or third persons are not exposed to any danger.
All safety instructions and warnings in these mounting and operating instructions,
particularly those concerning installation, start-up and maintenance, must be observed.
For appropriate operation, make sure that the control valve is only used in applications
4
where the operating pressure and temperatures do not exceed the operating values
based on the sizing data submitted in the order.
Note that the manufacturer does not assume any responsibility for damage caused by
external forces or any other external factors.
Any hazards which could be caused in the control valve by the process medium or
operating pressure are to be prevented by means of appropriate measures.
For installation and maintenance, make sure the relevant section of the pipeline is
4
depressurized and, depending on the process medium, drained as well. If necessary, allow the control valve to cool down or warm up to reach ambient temperature prior to
starting any work on it.
The actuators are designed for use in low voltage installations.
4
For wiring and maintenance, you are required to observe the relevant safety regulations.
Take necessary measures to ensure that the power supply cannot be reconnected inadver-
4
tently.
Take care while performing adjustment work on live parts. Never remove any covers!

To avoid damage to any equipment, the following also applies:
Proper shipping and appropriate storage are assumed.
4
Note: The control valves fulfill the requirements of the European Pressure Equipment Directive
97/23/EC. Valves with a CE marking have a declaration of conformity which includes infor
mation about the applied conformity assessment procedure. The declaration is available on
request.

2 Design and principle of
operation
The actuator in the three-point stepping ver
sion consists of a reversible synchronous
motor and a maintenance-free gear.
The version with digital positioner contains a
stepper motor which can be supplied with
any voltage regardless of the frequency.
Actuator and valve are connected (forcelocking) over a coupling nut (6). An interme
diate insulating piece can be used for insu
lated pipelines.
The medium flows through the single-seated
globe valve in the direction indicated by the
arrow. The position of the plug (3) determines the flow rate across the area released
between plug and valve seat (2).
The linear actuating force is transmitted directly over the actuator stem (7) to the plug
stem (5). When the actuator stem extends,
the valve plug (3) moves in the closing direction. The plug stem follows the actuator stem
owing to the force of the valve spring (4) as
the actuator stem retracts, causing the valve
to open.
