DESCRIPTION

The intelligent positioner SRD991 is designed to operate pneumatic valve actuators and can be operated from control

systems (like the I/A Series System), controllers or PC-based configuration and operation tools, such as the FDT/DTMs VALcare

or Valve Monitor The positioner is available with different communication protocols The multi-lingual full-text graphical

LCD (optional with infrared interface), in conjunction with the three push-buttons, provides a comfortable and easy local

configuration and operation For installations in contact with explosive atmospheres, certificates are available

Main Features

Intelligent

• Autostart with self-calibration
• Self diagnostics, status and diagnostic messages
• Easy local operation with three key pads
• Multi-lingual full text graphical LCD
• VALcare or Valve Monitor DTM for valve diagnostics and predictive maintenance

Overview

The SRD991 consists of a basic device with a digital controller that supports different communication protocols (or also simply

4…20 mA input) Into this basic device, additional equipment can be built such as plug-in cards for electrical input/output

signals, position feedback and pressure sensors
The pneumatic part is available in different versions (single/double acting or spool valve) For very large actuators, boosters

with increased air capacity can be flanged on Also, different manifolds for connection of gauges can be flanged on For the

pneumatic screw connections we offer different threads in the housing and adapters
For use in hazardous areas there are approvals according to ATEX, FM, CSA
The device can be configured locally by means of push-buttons and LCD / LED, or with PC + EDC82 Modem connected to the

service plug of the SRD991 By means of communication the device can be configured remotely or with IrCom + PC (Infrared

Interface at approximately 0 5 m)
A large variety of attachment kits for all common valves and actuators are available For high temperature or high vibration

application, we recommend to mount the SRD991 remotely and not directly on the valve For this, use the potentiometer unit
To ensure the high performance of the positioner, we offer Advanced Diagnostics and Premium Diagnostics utilities:
