5.1. special conditions
5.1.1. short-circuit protection
Each	electromagnet	shall	be	provided	on	the	line	with	a	short-circuit	
protection	in	the	form	of	a	fuse	designed	to	meet	the	magnet	starting	
current	 (max.	 3	 x	 I
rating
in accordance with IEC 60127-2-1) or a
motor	 overload	 trip	 instantaneous	 short-circuit	 and	 thermal	 release	
(Adjustment	to	match	the	pull-in	current).	
•	 At	very	low	pull-in	currents	of	the	solenoid	the	fuse	with	the	lowest	
current	value	is	adequate	according	to	the	stated	IEC	standard.	
This	fuse	may	be	mounted	in	the	associated	supply	unit	or	must	
be	connected	in	series	separately.	
• The rated voltage of the fuse must be equal to or larger than the
quoted nominal voltage of the magnet.
• The switch-off capability of the fuse cartridge must be equal to or
greater	than	the	maximum	theoretical	short-circuit	current	at	the	
installation	location	(normally	1500	A).
• In the case of versions PD30 of the solenoid, short-circuit pro-
tection must be assured by the operator.
• In the case of version PD29 of the solenoid, the fuse is installed in
the terminal box of the device.

5.1.2. Operation with associated valve body
The	solenoid	coils	Type	77.	/	78.	may	only	be	operated	with	a	valve	
body	satisfying	the	following	requirements.
For	the	valve	body,	the	following	materials	may	be	used:
•	 metal	(brass,	aluminium,	stainless	steel)	or	
•	 plastics	(e,g,	polyamide	PA	6	GV	...)
5.1.3. manual operation / approximity switch
The	solenoid	armature	can	be	manually	operated	via	the	push	
button.	The	push	button	may	be	locked	by	depressing	and	turning	
by	90°.
As	an	alternative	to	manual	operation,	the	solenoid	can	be	equipped	
with	a	proximity	switch.	The	internal	code	for	this	version	is	CF	15.
