Additional functions:
Monitoring key figures and measured values for preventive maintenance and consequently
increasing process safety. Limit values can be set. Deviations generate warning signals
which can be transmitted to the DCS via binary outputs or fieldbus.
Diagnostics
Temperature value within actuator
Key figures regarding lifetime of mechanics, grease, electron-
ics, and motor.
Actuator:
Method for identifying changes in torque requirement: Perform
reference operation and save torque as reference profile.
Define tolerance range. Perform comparative operation if re-
quired. Values outside tolerance initiate a signal which is
communicated as described above.
Actuator and valve:
In basic version, the actuator monitors and records further
figures and conditions. The generated fault and warning sig-
nals are saved within the event log. These signals can be
configured as requested. An overview in the AUMA Assistant
App or the CDT software shows all available fault/warning
signals with option to enter the details.
