All safety related instructions that appear in the manual must be observed to ensure personal safety and to prevent damage to either the instrument or the system. If the instrument is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. NOVUS AUTOMATION 4/38...
INTRODUCTION N2000S is a controller for servo positioners with two control relays: one to open and other to close the valve (or damper). Moreover, it has an analog output that can be programmed to control or retransmit input or setpoint signals. Its universal input accepts most industry manufactured sensors and signals.
All parameters set up are stored in a protected memory. Changed values are automatically saved when the user goes to the next parameter. The SP value is saved when parameters are changed or at every 25 seconds. NOVUS AUTOMATION 6/38...
If the calculated output is between 0 % or 100 % and it is maintained for some time, the opening relay (when in 0 %) or the closing relay (when in 100 %) will be periodically activated for a time fraction to assure that the real position is close to the estimated position, for mechanical problems or non-linearity of the process.
