A = Actuator diaphragm area [cm²]
F = Upper bench range value [bar]
If there are no specifications, calculate as
follows:
Required supply pressure =
Upper bench range value + 1 bar.
5.1.3 Signal pressure (output)
The signal pressure at the output (Output
38) of the positioner can be limited in steps
of 0.1 bar to a pressure between 1.4 and
7.0 bar in Code 16.
The limitations is not activated [7.0 bar] by
default.
5.2 Electrical connections
DANGER!
Risk of electric shock and/or
the formation of an explosive
atmosphere!
–
For electrical installation, observe the rel
-
evant electrotechnical regulations and
the accident prevention regulations that
apply in the country of use.
NOTICE
–
Adhere to the terminal assignment!
–
Switching the assignment of the electrical
terminals may cause the explosion pro-
tection to become ineffective!
–
Do not loosen enameled screws in or on
the housing.
–
The maximum permissible values speci-
fied in the national EC type examination

Selecting cables and wires:
For installing intrinsically safe circuits, ob

serve
Paragraph 12 in EN 60079-14: 2008
(VDE 0165 Part 1).
To install and select cables and wires as well
as to run several intrinsically safe circuits in
one multi-core cable, observe the installation
regulations valid in the country of use. The
diameter of an individual wire in a
fine-stranded conductor must not be smaller
than 0.1 mm. Protect the conductor ends
against splicing, e.g. by using wire-end fer
