Description of operation
When the device is restarted, or when it is started after the reset is triggered, there is a waiting time of
45 s until the reset function is available.
When voltage is applied to terminals 1-2a or 1-2b, the control unit to be activated is moved to any
desired position by means of the coupling rod. The coupling rod moves out or the valve opens when
voltage is applied to terminals 1 and 2a, and it moves in when the electrical circuit is closed via termi
nals 1 and 2b. In the end positions (limit stop in valve or maximum stroke reached) or in the case of
an overload, the electronic motor cut-off is activated (no limit switches).
Direction of the stroke changed by transposing the connections.
If the supply voltage fails or is switched off, or if a monitoring contact at terminal 21 is activated, the
holding magnet releases the gear unit and the preloaded spring moves the actuator to an end posi
tion, depending on the model of the actuator. The reset function is braked depending on the speed,
so that no pressure surges can occur in the supply line.
The green LED indicator lights up as long as there is a command pulse on terminal 2a or 2b. When
the limit stops are reached, the LED flashes at intervals of approx. 2.5 s.
During normal operation, the yellow LED indicator lights up continuously and goes out after the reset
function has been triggered (no power at terminal 21). When there is power at terminal 21 again, the
yellow LED flashes again for approx. 40 s. During this time, the reset function cannot be deactivated
again, so that the actuator can definitely reach the end position.
