Operation
3 Binary input BI1 or BI2 active
4 Monitoring of number of strokes
5 Monitoring of number of changes of direction
6 Monitoring of the bottom hard stop (valve seat)
7 Monitoring of the top hard stop
120
A fault message is generated when the binary input is activated at the
the corresponding setting of the parameter "43. FCT", function of the
fault message output and the parameter "38.BIN1", function binary
input 1. This may be a switch for stuffing box monitoring, a temperature
switch or a limit value switch for example.
Binaryinput 2 (on the alarm module option) can be configured in the
same way.
The two values number of strokes and number of changes of direction
are compared continuously with the limit values which are specified
with the parameters "46. STRK" and "47. DCHG". The fault message
output responds when exceeded. Both functions can be deactivated
with the parameter setting "OFF".
Monitoring of the bottom hard stop is activated when the parameter
"48. ZERO" has a value
with this function for example. Exceeding of the limit value may hint at
deposits or foreign bodies in the valve seat. Exceeding the limit value
may be caused by wear of the valve seat. Mechanical maladjustment of
the position feedback may also trigger this error message.
Monitoring takes place every time the valve is in position tight closing
bottom. The current position is compared with the one determined
during initialization as a bottom end stop. Activation of the tight closing
bottom function (parameter "39.YCLS") is therefore a prerequisite.
Example: 3 % is set as a value. Normally the setting 0 % is adopted
when closed. If a value >3 % or <--3 % is determined instead, a fault is
reported.
The fault message remains activated until either a subsequent
monitoring remains within the tolerance or a new initialization is
performed. The deactivation of the monitoring ("48. ZERO"=OFF) also
clears any existing fault message.
This monitoring function supplies no useful results when the stops have
not been determined automatically in initialization but the limits set
manually (manual initialization "5.INITM").
An appropriate diagnosis is made for the top hard stop. The limit value
for this is set with the parameter "49. OPEN". Activation of the tight
closing top function (parameter "35.YCLS") is therefore a prerequisite.
OFF. Errors of the valve seat can be detected
