Technical Data

The supply voltage is galvanically isolated from the input and output 

signals, but the input and output signals are not galvanically isolated 

from each other. 

Supply voltage

24 V ac ± 15%, 50-60 Hz

80 VA maximum (5 VA for controller and additional 55 VA when the 

controllers powers the coil for an AKV/A pulse valve or an additional 

75 VA when used with the discontinued TQ valve).

Input signals

Current input signal on terminals 18 & 19, 4-20 mA or 0-20 mA

Pressure transmitter, 4-20 mA from AKS 33

Digital input on terminals 1 and 2 for start-stop of regulation

Temperature sensor input, 2 PT 1000

Analog output (terminals 2 and 5)

Current signal: 

4-20 mA or 0-20 mA

Load: 

  

200Ω maximum

2 Relay outputs

each SPST, AC-1/4A resistive or AC-15: 3A inductive

Ambient temperature

During operation:  +14°F to 131°F (-10 °C to 55°C)

During transport:   -40°F to 158°F (-40°C to 70°C)

Approvals

EU Low Voltage Directive complied and EMC demands re CE-marking 

complied with

LVD tested according to EN 60730-1 and EN 60730-2-9

EMC tested according to EN50081-1and EN 50082-2
