Forced control Z
Forced control is affected by changeover of acting direction. It uses the following
operating modes:
No function
Equal-percentage or
linear characteristic
Contact "Z" not
connected,
valve follows
positioning signal "Y"
The operating modes "Z" shown are based on factory setting "direct acting" and a
"push to open" valve.

4.13.1 Detection of valve seat
The actuators feature force-dependent valve seat detection. After calibration, the
exact valve stroke is filed in the actuator's memory. When the actuator reaches the
respective end of stroke, it does not hit the valve's seat at full speed, but stops for 5
seconds at about 1% before the stored position is reached. If the positioning signal
stays at 0% or 100%, the actuator travels to the calculated end position at reduced
positioning speed and builds up the required nominal force.
This function extends the actuator's service life since the dynamic forces are
reduced when approaching the valve seat and there will be less strain on the gear
train.
In addition, the actuator's oscillations in the case of instable control are
suppressed.
If no force is built up in the calculated end position (e.g. in the event of temperature
effects for instance), the actuator continues to operate at a reduced positioning
speed until the nominal positioning force is restored. This ensures that the valve
always fully closes.
