Valves with Positioner
DESCRIPTION
(Figs. 1 and 2)
The valves are equipped with a piston-type operator of 50, 63, 90
or 125 mm in diameter. Series 290 normally closed 2/2 valves are
equipped with a profi led disc. Series 390 normally closed 3/2 valves
are equipped with a standard disc.
A Positioner
D
positioning unit, including a linear potentimeter, a pro-
cessor and two pilot valves, is standard fi tted on the valves.
- Single loop control
- Double loop control for positioner with directly connected external sensor.
APC software for modifi cation of control parameters is available for download
at: www.asconumatics.eu. The APC software is required for double loop control.
The proportional valve is factory-adjusted. The Positioner
D
is equipped
with an electronic "shut off" system to exhaust the pilot chamber at
0 setpoint to ensure that the valves are tight when closed.

OPERATION
(Figs. 1 and 2)
NC – Normally closed: The valve is closed when no pilot pressure
is supplied by the positioner to the actuator.
The valve opens when the positioner supplies a pilot pressure.
In the auto-adjust phase, adapt the pilot pressures according to
the actuator:
2 to 3 for an actuator with very low pilot pressure (1,5 b)
3 to 5 bar for an actuator with low pilot pressure (2,5 b)
5 to 7 bar for an actuator with high pilot pressure (4 b)
Fluid entry under the valve disc via port 2 (2/2) or 3 (3/2).
No fl uid entry above the disc.
On loss of power the valve returns to the fail close position or the
disc position is maintained.
INSTALLATION AND PUTTING INTO SERVICE
The device is supplied factory installed and adjusted.
Operator diameters 63, 90 and 125 mm: Make sure the unused orifi ce
(Fig. 1, no. A) is not sealed with a plug. This orifi ce must remain open
to allow the pilot air to exhaust to atmospheric pressure.
The fi nal installation consists of connecting the electrical and pneumatic supply;
the device is then ready for operation in accordance with the setpoint values.
The green LED 3 lights up when power is ON.
The bottom LED 4 (orange) lights up when the valve is fully closed.
The top LED 1 (yellow) lights up when the valve is fully open.
A rapidly fl ashing red LED 2 indicates a device malfunction, see "Error
Defi nitions" on last page.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
All electrical connections must be made by trained and qualifi ed personnel
only and be in accordance with your local regulations and standards.
1) Connection by cable and cable gland
CAUTION:
• Before starting any work, turn off the electrical current and
shut off the air supply to power off the components.
Unscrew and remove the cover.
Connect the terminal block (fi g 4, no. 1) as indicated below.
Supply voltage 24 V DC.
• Pin 1: +24 V DC supply
• Pin 2: GND supply
• Pin 3: Setpoint (0-10 V or 4-20 mA)
• Pin 4: GND setpoint
• Pin 5: External sensor input (double loop option)
(Fig. 3)
• Pin 6: Disc position feedback
• Pin 7: 24 V ON/OFF output (disc position = setpoint)
Fig. 4
All screw terminals must be properly tightened prior to operation
(be sure to observe a tightening torque of 3 Nm).
The electrical connection is made by a cable gland M16 x 1,5 mm for
cable dia. 5-10 mm (be sure to observe a tightening torque of 3 Nm).
Put the cover and its seal back in place (be sure to observe a
tightening torque of 5 Nm).

MANUAL OPENING AND CLOSING
It is possible to manually open and close the valve during normal operation.
Procedure:
1 – Remove the cover.
2 – To switch to manual mode, simultaneously press the "Open" button
(no. 3) and the "Close" button (no. 4) until the green LED fl ashes.
3 – Press the top button to open: The valve will open as long as the
button is pressed, it will stop opening as soon as the button is
released (fi g. 7).
