related Unit (e.g. reactor, centrifuge, drier).

3.1.2 Settings

3.1.2.1  Assembly Related Configuration

NOTE:

The following parameters are assembly related. In or-
der to proper operation of the device, these parameter
values must match with the physical valve package.

See ND9000 Installation, Maintenance and Operating In-
structions for details.

Performance Level

Target performance level of the valve position control. Op-
tions are;

  Aggressive; In order to optimise the control perform-

ance the device immediate response to signal changes,
overshoots

  Over tuned; Fast response to signal changes, small

overshooting

  Optimum; Very small overshoot with minimum step re-

sponse time

  Stable; No overshooting, slow response to input signal

changes

  Max stability; No overshooting, deadband may increase,

slow but stable behaviour

Positioner Fail Action

Configuration of the action taken during the LOSS OF
SUPPLY POWER (supply pressure is available). This ac-
tion will also take place when the positioner software dis-
covers a fatal device failure. In these both cases the spool
valve feeds C1 (pneumatic connector) and releases C2
pressure. Options are;

 Undefined

 Close

 Open

Set value Close for double acting actuators. For single
acting actuators set value in the spring direction.

NOTE:
Perform valve calibration and tuning always when this
parameter has been changed.

Position Sensor Rotation

Defines relationship between the position sensor rotation
and valve action. Options;

 Undefined

  Standard : Clockwise to close

  Nonstandard : Counter clockwise to close

Actuator Type

Actuator type indication. Options are

 Undefined

  Double acting actuator

  Single acting actuator

Actuator Fail Action

Actuator fail safe position during LOSS OF SUPPLY
PRESSURE. This parameter is informational only.

  Undefined (Double acting actuator)

 Opening

 Closing

Valve Type

Valve type selection. Options are

 Linear

 Rotary, 

part-turn

  Neles CV globe

 Undefined

Dead Angle Compensation

The  

α

0 setting is made for Metso Automation segment

and ball valves. This setting takes into account the “dead
angle” 

α

0 of the ball valves. The entire signal range is then

used for effective valve opening 90° - 

α

0.

Limit switches

This parameter defines either the limit switches are in-
stalled or not. Options are;

  Not installed (default)

 Installed
