Product description PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The type 2871 direct-acting proportional valve is used as an actuator for process control loops. An elastomeric seat seal makes the valve close tight up to the orifice-specific nominal pressure (integrated shut-off function). The magnetic core of the valve is stored without friction, which results in outstanding positioning behaviour.

Type 2871 Installation INSTALLATION DANGER! Risk of injury due to high pressure and escaping medium. ▶ Switch off the pressure before working on the device or system. Vent or drain the pipes. ▶ For valve body with flange connection: check seals are seated correctly. NOTE! ▶ Do not uninstall proportional valve.
Type 2871 Installation Screw in valve in pipe (threaded connection) NOTE! ▶ Use an open-end wrench for installation. ▶ Do not use the coil as a lever arm. → Hold the proportional valve with an open-end wrench on the valve body.
Type 2871 Electrical installation ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION DANGER! Risk of injury from electric shock. ▶ Switch off voltage before working on the device or system. Secure against reactivation. ▶ Observe any applicable accident prevention and safety regulations for electrical devices. Risk of injury from improper installation. ▶ Only trained technicians may perform installation work.
▶ Set correct PWM frequency (see “9.1 PWM frequency”). The type 8605 control electronics (rail variant) is suitable for controlling the type 2871 proportional valve. The control electronics can be combined with all variants of the proportional valve (strand or plug).
Type 2871 Maintenance and troubleshooting MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING 10.1 Maintenance The valve operates maintenance-free under normal conditions. 10.2 Troubleshooting Check in case of faults: • Port connections • Operating pressure within the permissible range • Power supply and valve control...
