CA1N4454en Modulating control valves with magnetic actuator, PN16 CA1N4454en
Building Technologies 2017-11-30
The magnetic actuator can be driven by a Siemens controller or a controller of other
manufacture that deliver a DC 0/2...10 V or DC 4... 20 mA output signal.
To achieve optimum control performance, it is recommended to use a 4-wire connec-
tion.
If the positioning signal is interrupted, or in the event of a power failure, the valve’s
return spring will automatically close control path 1 ⇓ 3.
Control path ports 1 –> 3 can be opened mechanically to between 0 and approximately
90 %, by turning the hand wheel clockwise.
The manual adjustment facility can also be used as a mechanical method of low limit
control, i.e. the valve will exercise its normal control function between the manually-set
position and the 100 % open position. For full-stroke automatic control, the hand wheel
must be set to 0 (the counterclockwise end stop).
