Stop Indicator is visible on the screen. The valve will
only operate if there is a closure between Customer Connec ons #18 and #19 and a jumper
has been installed to serve this purpose. If this jumper has been removed, or the Remote Stop
is engaged, the R

Stop Indicator will be visible onscreen.
If the Run/Stop Bu on is Red, then the valve is currently closed and product is not

through the CentriFeeder™. Press the Run/Stop Bu on so that it turns Green in order to open
the valve to the desired posi on (as indicated by the entered Manual Out value). Once a value
has been entered and the Run/Stop Bu on is Green, the valve will open and the actual
posi on of the valve will be indicated by the Valve Posi on Indicator.
Please note that the valve will most likely have the ability to open to a point which will ex

fl

changes in the valve’s posi on are recommended if a large

ever, opening the valve to 100% can be useful to clear the valve of residual product when
the feed hopper is empty in order to prepare for a product change.
Stopping Flow
To stop
fl
ow while it is running, (the Run/Stop Bu on is Green) press the Run/Stop Bu on.
The Bu on should now be Red. Pressing this bu on will cause the valve to close to the Virtual
Flow Stop value indicated above the Integrated Control Valve actuator icon.
If the valve does not close to 1% of the target value in about 15 seconds, the An
‐
Binding Func on will ac vate, and try to close the ICV to 1% of the closed target value.
If it is not able to reach target in 3 minutes, a "Stuck" alarm will be ac vated. On closing, this
is usually due to product bridging between the valve and Tangen al Liner, and will usually
open when asked. For more informa on, refer to the An

Binding Sec on of this manual.
