14.2 Setting 3- / 4- wire system 4 – 20 mA
.
Connect voltage to electronic position transmitter.
.
Move valve to end position CLOSED.
.
If installed, pull off indicator disc.
.
Connect ammeter for 0 – 20 A (refer to wiring diagram).
The circuit (external load) must be connected (observe
max. load R
B
), or the appropriate poles at the terminals
(refer to wiring diagram) must be linked, otherwise no
value can be measured.
.
Turn setting spindle (A) clockwise until stop is felt.
.
Turn potentiometer (P1) clockwise until output current starts to increase.
.
Turn back potentiometer (P1) until a residual current of approx. 0.1 mA
has been reached.
.
Move valve to end position OPEN.
.
Set potentiometer (P2) to end value 16 mA.
.
Move valve to end position CLOSED.
.
Set potentiometer (P1) from 0.1 mA to initial value 4 mA.
This results in a simultaneous shift of the end value by 4 mA, so that the
range is now 4 – 20 mA.
.
Approach both end positions anew and check setting. If necessary, correct
the setting.
If the maximum value cannot be reached, the selection of the
reduction gearing must be checked.
