Notes on applications
Usually, shut-off valves in a safety-instru-
mented system are equipped with a solenoid
valve for emergency shutdown.
Several setups are possible when integrating
the Type 3730-3 Positioner in ESD version
into the automation system:
In Fig. 3, the positioner replaces the sole-
noid valve.
The safety function is triggered by the
safety-related control; accordingly, the sole-
noid valve and the limit switch are con-
nected to it.
To read the additional diagnostic
information and define set points, it is advis-
able to integrate the positioner into the con-
trol system and the asset management sys-
tem.
As shown in Fig. 4, no solenoid valve is re-
quired since the positioner, similar to the so-
lenoid valve, is certified for safe shutdown.
When the energy supply fails, the pneumatic
output is safely vented.
In this setup, the positioner’s 4 to 20 mA
signal is applied to the safety-related pro-
grammable logic controller. The HART
®
pro-
tocol is used for connection to the asset
management system.
