    IP65 (see BS EN 60534-1 1998). 2.2 Electrical safety requirements The SP200 is a class III product which must only be powered from Safe Extra Low Voltage (SELV) sources whether by virtue of a 4 - 20 mA control signal or from a separate power supply.
  • Page 5 2.4 Installation for hazardous areas and certification - General information SP200 Smart Positioner is available for Intrinsic Safety applications, model identification is SP200is. In case of use in hazardous areas with danger of explosion, it must be verified that the identified type of positioner fits for the classification of the zone and for the presence of flammable substances in the plant.
  • Page 6 2.4.2 Electrical connections for IS. For installation in classified areas it is necessary to foresee the use of certified associated apparatuses (e.g. safety barriers), with output electrical characteristics compatible with the maximum input parameters (ref. to Name-plate) of the certified SP200is positioner: Electrical input parameter of SP200is Circuit Ui(V)

    3. Technical information 3.1 Description The SP200 smart valve positioner is loop powered from a 4 - 20 mA input signal to provide accurate adaptive positional control of pneumatic actuated linear and quarter turn valves. Precise control is maintained through valve position feedback that automatically varies the pneumatic output pressure to overcome the effects of stem friction and flow forces to maintain desired valve position.
