UNPACKING & INSPECTION
Upon opening the shipping container, visually inspect the product and applicable accessories for any physical damage such
as scratches, loose or broken parts, or any other sign of damage that may have occurred during shipment
NOTE:
N
If damage is found, request an inspection by the carrier’s agent within 48 hours of delivery and file a claim with the
carrier A claim for equipment damage in transit is the sole responsibility of the purchaser
Installation and startup of instrument to be carried out only by qualified personnel, familiar with installation and start-up
procedures and operation of this product!
SAFETY INFORMATION
The installation of this product must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local rules, regulations, and codes
Failure to read and follow these instructions can lead to misapplication or misuse of the product, resulting in personal injury
and damage to equipment
Accident Prevention
The connected instrument contains mechanically moved parts, such as feedback levers, which could cause injuries The
operators have to be instructed accordingly
Electrical Safety
• This instrument satisfies the conditions for safety class III, overvoltage category I according to EN 61010-1 or IEC1010-1
• Any work on electrical parts must be done by qualified personnel if any supply is connected to the instrument The
instrument must be used for its designated purpose and connected in accordance with its connection diagram
• Locally applicable installation regulations for electrical equipment must be observed, e g in the Federal Republic of
Germany DIN VDE 0100 resp DIN VDE 0800
• The instrument must be operated with safety extra low voltage SELV or SELV-E
• Safety precautions taken in the instrument may be rendered ineffectual if the instrument is not operated in accordance
with the Master Instructions
• Limitation of power supplies for fire protection must be observed due to EN 61010-1, appendix F or IEC 1010-1
SUMMARY – HART AND 4…20 MA WITHOUT COMMUNICATION
Mounting to Actuator (Valve)
The SRD991 can be mounted to linear or rotary actuators
Connection and Startup
When connecting the supply air and applying a current source to the input terminals, pay attention to polarity An initial
startup required no additional equipment
Use the local push-buttons to change basic parameters such as type of actuator, side of installation, valve opens/closes with
increasing setpoint value, and characteristics curve of the valve (values set ex-factory: stroke actuator, mounting side: left,
valve opens with increasing setpoint value, linear characteristics curve)
Thereafter, an AUTOSTART can be performed during which the SRD991 determines independently the geometric data of the
actuator as well as control parameter, to ensure an optimized operation with the attached valve
HART version:
The positioner can be operated either locally or via handheld terminal or PC (via modem)
