G e n e r a l d e s c r i p t i o n VSR series modulating valves manufactured by GUTH represent state-of-the-art control fitting tech- nology using tried and tested stainless steel valve and actuator components. They are used in the foodstuffs, beverages, pharmaceutical and chemical industries and fulfil the purposes of dosing, mixing, distributing or reducing the corresponding media, pressures and temperatures.
Co n t r ol le r va ri an t s Standard positioners: As standard, the Guth DigiPos valve positioner is mounted on the diaphragm actuator. Controller options: Optionally, valve positioner according to NAMUR can be mounted. Modulating Valves Type: VSR 2. Technical Data www.sks-online.com www.sks-webshop.com...

F u n c t i o n a l d e s c r i p t i o n The GUTH modulating valve VSR with multi-spring diaphragm actuator has a travel (stroke) of 20, 30 or 60 mm as standard for the nominal diameters DN 10 to DN 150. The linear movement of the valve spindle is induced by means of an actuator shaft connected by a coupling piece.
I n s t a l l a t i o n s p a c e The type VSR valve has a very compact design, so it can be installed practically anywhere in a plant. However, to prevent problems arising in connection with thermal, mechanical or vibrational issues, direct contact with other elements should be avoided.
E l e c t r i c a l c o n n e c t i o n Connection to be carried out according to the operating instructions of the respective control head or electrical attachment components. Modulating Valves Type: VSR 4. Installation of the Modulating valve www.sks-online.com...

M e c h a n i c a l v a l v e d e f e c t s ( M e c h a n i c ) The housing of the GUTH VSR modulating valve and the actuators are extremely robust, so mechanical problems are generally not to be expected.
- Insufficient air pressure. Rectification of fault: - Replacement of springs or diaphragm; see "Operating and Maintenance Instructions for Multi- spring Diaphragm Actuators". - Tightening of the screw connections of the actuator housing.
