Potentiometer
Due to the ratio of the reduction gearing, the complete resistance range/stroke is
not always covered. Therefore, external adjustment (setting potentiometer) must
be provided.
2. Turn potentiometer [1] clockwise to the stop.
ð End position CLOSED corresponds to 0 %.
ð End position OPEN corresponds to 100 %.
3. Turn potentiometer [1] slightly in opposite direction.
4. Perform fine-tuning of the zero point at external setting potentiometer (for remote
indication).
RWG electronic position transmitter records the valve position. On the basis of the ac-
tual position value measured by the potentiometer (travel sensor), it generates a cur-
rent signal between 4 – 20 mA.
RWG 5020 Ex electronic position transmitter is designed as an intrinsically safe
electric circuit Ex ib according to IEC 60079-11.
Intrinsically safe electric circuit, risk of explosion!
Risk of death or serious injury.
à Observe the applicable installation regulations relating to explosion protection
when connecting.
