NOTE
The pressure supply must exceed the pressure required by the pneumatic actuator and must exceed at
least 0.5 to 1 bar.
This is to ensure that the control process in the upper ranges of the actuator will not become negative due
to a lower pressure difference.
Keep the pressure supply variations within the most restricted limits (max. ±10 %).
Higher variations reduce the reliability of the measured parameters within the AUTOTUNE procedure.

Electrical connection
Various options are available for electrical connection
•
Multipole connection
•
Terminals (with cable glands)
•
QUICKON connection
ATTENTION!
A screw with a nut is available in the connecting module for connection of the technical earth (TE). In
order to comply with the EMC requirements connect this screw to a good earthing point with a short
length cable (max. 30 cm).
