FAQ

  • Q: What is the input signal range of the V18345-1004210001?
    A: It uses a two-wire 4...20 mA nominal range with split range configuration from 20% to 100%.
  • Q: Does this positioner support HART communication?
    A: Yes, it includes an FSK module for HART communication and supports HART Protocol 5.1.
  • Q: What explosion protection does this model carry?
    A: It carries ATEX EEx n A II T6 certification for Zone 2 hazardous areas.
  • Q: What is the safe position on electrical power failure?
    A: This model provides fail freeze, which blocks the actuator in its last position.
  • Q: What is the operating temperature range?
    A: The positioner works from -40...+85 °C for operation, storage, and transport.
  • Q: What air supply pressure does it require?
    A: It needs 1.4...6 bar (20...90 psi) and must not exceed the actuator maximum pressure.
  • Q: What is the resolution of the A/D conversion?
    A: The resolution exceeds 4000 steps with a 20 msec sample rate.
  • Q: Is this unit suitable for SIL2 safety loops?
    A: Yes, it meets SIL2 requirements and holds ATEX, FM, CSA, and IECEx approvals.
  • Q: What is the air consumption?
    A: Air consumption stays below 0.03 kg/h or 0.015 scfm, independent of supply pressure.
  • Q: What is the weight of the positioner?
    A: The unit weighs 1.7 Kg.
