Position sensor for external position indication (optional)

• With potentiometer
  – Conductive plastic potentiometer (standard) or wire-wound potentiometer (including TUV approval)
  – Multiturn potentiometer up to 10 turns
  – Gearing facilitates adapting the electrical angle of rotation of the potentiometer to the desired angle of rotation of the actuator.
  – Special potentiometers with TUV-approved form-fit attachment solution are available for electronic fuel/air ratio control.
• With 4 … 20 mA transmitter
  – Gearing facilitates adapting the electrical angle of rotation of the transmitter to the desired angle of rotation of the actuator.
• With Hall sensor
  – The wear-free absolute encoder that makes use of the Hall effect is particularly suitable for continuous operation in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Manual operation (optional)

• Using a handwheel it is possible to manually adjust the position of the output shaft and valves.
• Disengaging the gear train and motor reduces the amount of force required.
• Position switch-off settings are retained during manual operation.

Safety instructions

Ensure the device is isolated from the power supply before the hood of the flameproof encapsulated housing is opened by a skilled tradesperson in a hazardous area. It is imperative to observe the wait time stated on the rating plate!
