Actuator controls
Safety instructions AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2

1. Safety instructions
1.1. Prerequisites for the safe handling of the product
Standards/directives The end user or the contractor must ensure that all legal requirements, directives,
guidelines, national regulations and recommendations with respect to assembly,
electrical connection, commissioning and operation are met at the place of installation.
They include among others standards and directives such as IEC 60079 “Explosive
atmospheres".
● Part 14: Electrical installations design, selection and erection.
● Part 17: Electrical installations inspection and maintenance.

Safety instructions/
All personnel working with this device must be familiar with the safety and warning
warnings
instructions in this manual and observe the instructions given. Safety instructions
and warning signs on the device must be observed to avoid personal injury or property
damage.

Qualification of staff Assembly, electrical connection, commissioning, operation, and maintenance must
be carried out by suitably qualified personnel authorised by the end user or contractor
of the plant only.
Prior to working on this product, the staff must have thoroughly read and understood
these instructions and, furthermore, know and observe officially recognised rules
regarding occupational health and safety.
Work performed in potentially explosive atmospheres is subject to special regulations
which have to be observed. The end user or contractor of the plant is responsible
for respect and control of these regulations, standards, and laws.
Electrostatic charging Highly efficient charge generating processes (processes more efficient than manual
friction) on the device surface must be excluded at any time, since they will lead to
propagating brush discharges and therefore to ignition of a potentially explosive
atmosphere.
This also applies to fireproof coatings or covers available as an option.
Ignition dangers Gearboxes were subjected to an ignition hazard assessment in compliance with the
currently applicable standard according to ISO 80079-36/ -37. Hot surfaces,
mechanically generated sparks as well as static electricity and stray electric currents
were identified and assessed as major potential ignition sources. Protective measures
to prevent the likelihood that ignition sources arise were applied to the gearboxes.
This includes in particular lubrication of the gearbox, the IP protection codes and the
warnings and notes contained in these operation instructions.

Commissioning Prior to commissioning, imperatively check that all settings meet the requirements
of the application. Incorrect settings might present a danger to the application, e.g.
cause damage to the valve or the installation. The manufacturer will not be held
liable for any consequential damage. Such risk lies entirely with the user.

Operation Prerequisites for safe and smooth operation:

● Correct transport, proper storage, mounting and installation, as well as careful
commissioning.
● Only operate the device if it is in perfect condition while observing these instruc-
tions.
● Immediately report any faults and damage and allow for corrective measures.
● Observe recognised rules for occupational health and safety.
● Observe national regulations.
● During operation, the housing warms up and surface temperatures > 60 °C may
occur. To prevent possible burns, we recommend checking the surface temper-
ature prior to working on the device using an appropriate thermometer and
wearing protective gloves.

AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2 Safety instructions

Protective measures The end user or the contractor are responsible for implementing required protective
measures on site, such as enclosures, barriers, or personal protective equipment
for the staff.

Maintenance To ensure safe device operation, the maintenance instructions included in this manual
must be observed.
Any device modification requires prior written consent of the manufacturer.
1.2. Range of application

AUMA actuator controls are exclusively designed for the operation of AUMA actuators.
Other applications require explicit (written) confirmation by the manufacturer. The
following applications are not permitted, e.g.:
● motor control
● pump control
No liability can be assumed for inappropriate or unintended use.
Observance of these operation instructions is considered as part of the device's
designated use.
1.3. Warnings and notes

The following warnings draw special attention to safety-relevant procedures in these

operation instructions, each marked by the appropriate signal word (DANGER,
WARNING, CAUTION, NOTICE).

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation with a high level of risk. Failure

to observe this warning results in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation with a medium level of risk. Failure

to observe this warning could result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation with a low level of risk. Failure to

observe this warning could result in minor or moderate injury. May also be
used with property damage.

Potentially hazardous situation. Failure to observe this warning could result

in property damage. Is not used for personal injury.

Safety alert symbol warns of a potential personal injury hazard.

The signal word (here: DANGER) indicates the level of hazard.
1.4. References and symbols

The following references and symbols are used in these instructions:

Actuator controls
Short description AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2

2. Short description
Actuator controls actuator controls are used to operate AUMA actuators and are supplied ready for
use.
The functions of actuator controls include standard valve control in OPEN-CLOSE
duty, positioning, process control, logging of operating data right through to diagnostic
functions.
Local controls/ Operation, setting, and display can be performed directly at the actuator controls.
AUMA CDT When set to local control, it is possible to
● operate the actuator via the local controls (push buttons and display) and perform
settings (contents of these instructions).
● read in or out data or modify and save settings via AUMA CDT software (ac-
cessory), using a computer (laptop or PC). The connection between computer
and actuator controls is wireless via Bluetooth interface (not included in these
instructions).

Intrusive - Non-Intrusive ● Intrusive version (control unit: electromechanical):

Limit and torque setting is performed via switches in the actuator.
● Non-Intrusive version (control unit: electronic):
Limit and torque setting is performed via the controls, without removal of actu-
ator or actuator controls covers. For this purpose, the actuator is equipped with
an MWG (magnetic limit and torque transmitter), also capable to supply analogue
torque feedback signals/torque indication and analogue position feedback sig-
nals/position indication at the actuator controls output.

AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2 Operation

6. Operation
Different operation modes (states) are available. The current operation mode is
indicated in the first line of the display:

Figure 31: Example: Operation mode Off

This chapter describes the characteristics of the different operation modes; the
respective functions are described in separate chapters.
6.1. Operation mode Off

The selector switch is in position 0 (OFF).

Characteristics ● The indication in the top row of the display shows: Off
● Electric operation is not possible (not even EMERGENCY operation).
● The controls remain fully operative as far as signalling is concerned (controls’
power supply is maintained).
● Push buttons C can be used for menu navigation via the display.
6.2. Operation mode Local

Selector switch is in position Local control (LOCAL).

Properties ● The indication in the top row of the display shows: Local
● In motor operation, the actuator can be controlled locally via the push buttons
(OPEN), STOP, (CLOSE).
● Faults and warnings without automatic reset can be confirmed with the push
button RESET.
6.2.1. Push-to-run operation or self-retaining Local
Parameter Self-retaining Local M0076 determines the actuator operation behaviour
to operation commands via push buttons on local controls.
Customer settings M0041
Local controls M0075
Self-retaining Local M0075
Default value: OPEN and CLOSE
Setting values:
Off (push-to-run op.) Push-to-run operation activated, self-retaining off:
Actuator only runs in directions OPEN or CLOSE while an operation command is
being received. The actuator stops if the operation command is cancelled.
OPEN In direction OPEN = self-retaining (in direction CLOSE push-to-run operation):
After an operation command in direction OPEN, the actuator continues to run, even
if the operation command is cancelled (self-retaining). The actuator is either stopped
by the STOP command or if end position OPEN or an intermediate position OPEN
has been reached.
CLOSE In direction CLOSE = self-retaining (in direction OPEN push-to-run operation):

29
Actuator controls
Operation AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2

After an operation command in direction CLOSE, the actuator continues to run, even
if the operation command is cancelled (self-retaining). The actuator is either stopped
by the CLOSE command or if end position CLOSED or an intermediate position
CLOSED has been reached.
OPEN and CLOSE In directions OPEN and CLOSE = self-retaining:
After an operation command, the actuator continues to run in directions OPEN or
CLOSE, even if the operation command is cancelled (self-retaining). The actuator
is either stopped by the STOP command or if an end position or intermediate position
has been reached.
Direct reversal of operation is not possible. Operation commands in directions OPEN
or CLOSE must be stopped first by STOP command. Only then is an operation
command into the opposite direction allowed.
OPEN & CL w/o STOP In directions OPEN and CLOSE = self-retaining without stop:
Direct reversal of operation is also possible without the STOP command. However,
operation can be stopped at any time by the STOP command.
6.3. Operation mode remote

Selector switch is in position Remote control (REMOTE).

Properties The indication in the top row of the display shows the set source of the operation
commands:
● Remote (parallel interface)
● Remote II (parallel interface, service box)
Depending on the control, a distinction is made between:
● OPEN-CLOSE control (operation mode Remote OPEN-CLOSE):
Control is made via binary operation commands OPEN, STOP, CLOSE.
(or for activated Multiport Valve function via operation commands CW, CCW)
● Setpoint control (operation mode Remote SETPOINT):
Control via analogue operation commands, e.g. 4 – 20 mA.
Information ● Binary signals (e.g. +24 V DC) via digital inputs are only recognised as valid
operation commands if the signal is present for at least 10 ms.
● If a positioner or process controller is available, change-over between OPEN-
CLOSE control (operation mode Remote OPEN-CLOSE) and setpoint control
(operation mode Remote SETPOINT) is possible. Refer to chapter <Change-
over between OPEN-CLOSE control and setpoint control>.

6.3.1. Push-to-run operation or self-retaining Remote

Parameters Self-retaining Remote M0100, Self-retaining M01193 and Self-retaining

Remote II M0101 determine the operation behaviour of the actuator to binary
operation commands (OPEN, STOP, CLOSE or CW, CCW), controlling the actuator
“from Remote” via the I/O interface.

Customer settings M0041

I/O interface M0015
Default values:
Self-retaining = Off (push-to-run op.)
Self-retaining Remote II = OPEN and CLOSE
6.4. Operation mode EMERGENCY

The actuator can start immediately when switching on!

Risk of personal injuries or damage to the valve.
→ Ensure that the EMERGENCY signal is present when switching on.
→ Should the actuator start unexpectedly: Immediately set selector switch to pos-
ition 0 (OFF).

6.5. Operation mode EMERGENCY stop

See also: Failure function <EMERGENCY stop function>
Condition An EMERGENCY stop button (latching) is either located on the electrical connection
or outside.
Characteristics ● The indication in the top row of the display shows: EMCY stop
● In an emergency, the EMERGENCY stop button can be used to interrupt the
power supply of the motor control (contactors or thyristors).
● Operation mode EMERGENCY stop supersedes all other operation modes.
● A new operation command can only be executed once the pressed EMER-
GENCY stop button is released and operation mode EMERGENCY Stop is
cancelled using a Reset command.
● Once operation mode EMERGENCY Stop is cancelled (Reset command),
analogue operation commands present (e.g. 0/4 – 20 mA) will immediately be
executed.
6.6. Operation mode Disabled

7. Basic settings for commissioning

Definition Basic settings such as type of seating, torque and limit switching are required for
safe commissioning of the actuator controls together with the actuator. Basic settings
for display, such as date and time or display formats, can be changed, if required.
7.1. Type of seating for end positions
Function ● Selection of the type of seating (according to valve manufacturer's specifications)
- Limit seating in end position

● For end positions OPEN and CLOSED, the following can be set individually:
Limit seating
Actuator controls switch off the actuator in the end positions (OPEN/CLOSED) set
via limit switching.
For end position seating via limit switching, you have to account for the overrun of
the actuator. Overrun [1] is the travel from switching off until complete standstill. The
overrun depends on the inertia of both the actuator and the valve and the delay time
of the actuator controls.
Figure 32: Limit seating

P Tripping position
[1] Overrun

Torque seating
Actuator controls switch off the actuator in the end positions via torque tripping.
For this, the torque switching has to be set to the tripping torque specified by the
valve manufacturer. When reaching the end position, the torque increases within the
valve seat. Actuator controls switch off the actuator once the set tripping torque has
been reached.
With this setting, the limit switching is used for signalling and must be set to trip
shortly before reaching the end position.

AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2 Application functions

8. Application functions
Definition Application functions are functions used to adapt the actuator controls to special
applications. This includes device functions, communication functions and device
information.
If they are enabled, these functions can be programmed by the user for his/her
specific task using parameters.
8.1. Intermediate positions
Conditions The actuator is equipped with a position transmitter.
Characteristics ● With the actuator controls, up to 8 intermediate positions can be set to any
value between 0 % and 100 % of the travel.
● Each intermediate position can be activated or deactivated individually.
● When reaching an intermediate position, a signal can be generated.
● A hysteresis can be defined for each pivot point.
8.1.1. Intermediate positions of pivot points: define

Each intermediate position can be set to a value between 0 and 100 % of the travel.
Customer settings M0041
Intermediate positions M0143
Pivot points M0160
Pivot point 1 M0249
Default values: 0.0 % for all 8 intermediate positions
Setting range: 0.0 % (CLOSED) to 100.0 % (OPEN) of the travel

Information The pivot points also apply to the <Operation profile> function.

8.1.2. Signal behaviour of intermediate positions: set

Reaching a pivot point (intermediate position) can be signalled:

● via indication lights (LEDs) of the local controls or
● via output contacts
Each pivot point (intermediate position) can be assigned a specific signal behaviour.
Customer settings M0041
Intermediate positions M0143
Signal behaviour M0266
Signal behaviour 1 M0269
Default value: No signal
Setting values:
No signal Behaviour A: “Off”, intermediate position is not signalled.
C________|¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯O Behaviour B: Signal is active from reaching the pivot point (P) up to end position
OPEN (100 %)
C¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯|_______O Behaviour C: Signal is active from end position CLOSED (0 %) until reaching the
pivot point (P).
C_______|¯|_______O Behaviour D: When passing the pivot point (P), a pulse signal is issued.

Actuator controls
Application functions AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2

Figure 33: Signal behaviour (A to D) of the intermediate positions

Special characteristics of B, C and D

Behaviour of B and C: The signal is directly activated when reaching the set pivot
point (P).
Behaviour D: The signal is activated shortly before reaching the set pivot point (P).
The switch-on point is determined by pulse duration (+/– range around the pivot
point). Pulse duration depends on parameter Outer dead band M0148 and amounts
to 1.0 % of the travel for default setting.

Information For behaviours B and C, the signal might be omitted if, e.g when using a positioner,
pivot point (P) is not fully reached due to the dead band. In this case, behaviour D
can be selected as the dead band is considered.

8.1.3. Hysteresis for intermediate positions: set

The hysteresis determines the tripping point of the signal.

Example Parameter Pivot point 6 M0253 is set to 50.0 % of the travel.
Parameter Hysteresis 6 M0282 is set to 1.0 %.
Figure 34: Signal behaviour B, C, D for hysteresis = 1 %

Hysteresis 1 M0277
Default values: 0.5 % for all 8 positions
Setting range:0.0 % to 5.0 % of the travel (from OPEN to CLOSED)

Information For signal behaviour D, the value XT (parameter Outer dead band M0148) determines
pulse duration pT and influences switch-on point P1.

8.2. Operation profile (operation behaviour) for intermediate positions

Conditions Function <Positioner>, parameter Positioner M0158 = Function active (Required
user level: Specialist (4) or higher)
Characteristics The function <Operation profile> can be used to define the operation behaviour of
the actuator when reaching an end position. Example: The actuator stops and only
continues its operation after another operation command.
This function is required in special applications to avoid water hammer, possibly also
in combination with the timer.

8.3. Two-wire control
Conditions Operation mode Remote (Selector switch = position Remote control).
Characteristics With the <Two-wire control> function, the actuator can be operated to end position
OPEN or CLOSED via one digital input.

Information In this function, the actuator only reacts to commands via the input OPEN / CLOSE.
Other inputs to which the operation commands OPEN, STOP, CLOSE were assigned,
do not have any function.

Execute operation commands via digital input:

Designation of digital input OPEN / CLOSE

(Wiring diagram designation: OPEN/CLOSE
Default setting ● Input OPEN / CLOSE = low level (0 V DC or input open):
Actuator runs in direction CLOSE.
● Input OPEN / CLOSE = high level (standard: +24 V DC):
Actuator runs in direction OPEN.
Configuration of digital input

For the two-wire control, a digital input for the OPEN / CLOSE signal has to be
configured.
Required user level: Specialist (4)

Information The logic for the digital inputs may be inverted. Depending on the parameter setting
(e.g. Coding DIN 6 M0128), the input is either High active or Low active. Default
setting is High active.

8.4. Positioner (operation mode Remote SETPOINT)

Conditions This function requires one of the following equipments within the actuator:
● Electronic control unit (non-intrusive version)
● Potentiometer
● Electronic position transmitter EWG/RWG
Further conditions for the positioner operation mode:
● Positioner enabled and activated.
● Operation mode Remote (selector switch = position Remote control).

Characteristics The positioner records setpoint position E1 and actual position value E2 for
comparison. Depending on the detected deviation, the actuator motor then runs in
direction OPEN or CLOSE.

Information ● If the actuator is controlled via a setpoint (e.g. 0 – 20 mA), the status indication
S0003 on the display shows both setpoint position E1 and actual position value
E2.
● If the status indication S0003 only shows the actual position value E2, OPEN-
CLOSE control is active and there is no setpoint control via the positioner. In
this case, you have to change-over to setpoint control first, refer to <Change-
over between OPEN-CLOSE control and setpoint control> chapter.

8.4.2. Adaptive behaviour: activate deactivate
Adaptive positioning may reduce the number of starts and compensate for the overrun
of the actuator.
Customer settings M0041
Positioner M0145
Adaptive behaviour M0147
Default value: Adaptive I
Setting values:
Off Adaptive behaviour switched off.
Adaptive I Adaptive behaviour for precise positioning (high positioning accuracy).
Due to the inertia of both actuator and valve, the valve position changes only slightly
after switching off the actuator (overrun). The positioner determines the resulting
error between setpoint and actual value for both directions and automatically adapts
the inner dead bands Xi and therefore switching point P2.
On the basis of the determined inner dead bands Xi and the set hysteresis
(parameters Posit. hyst. OPEN M0598 or Posit. hyst. CLOSE M0599), the outer dead
bands XT are automatically determined.

49
Actuator controls
Application functions AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2

This reduces the error caused by the overrun after only a few operations and a high
positioning accuracy is achieved.

8.4.3. Overrun (inner dead band): set manually

The inner dead band determines the switch-off point of the actuator and, therefore,
influences the overrun.
The inner dead band may be set individually for the directions OPEN and CLOSE.
Manual setting is only possible if the adaptive behaviour, parameter Adaptive
behaviour M0147, is switched off.
Customer settings M0041

Setting ranges: 0.0 % to 10.0 % (for dead band OPEN and CLOSE)

Information ● Inner dead bands may not be set wider than outer dead bands.
● Inner dead bands may not be set too narrow as this may cause unnecessary
switching procedures (premature wear) or oscillation of the actuator.
.

8.4.4. Max. error variable (outer dead band): set manually

The outer dead band determines the switching-on point of the actuator.
The motor starts if the actual value (input signal E2) or a change in setpoint is higher
than the maximum error variable determined by the outer dead band.
Manual setting is only possible if the adaptive behaviour, parameter Adaptive
behaviour M0147, is switched off.

Information Actuator controls ensure that the max. permissible number of starts of the actuator
is not exceeded. This can be achieved by setting the dead time to a sufficiently high
value.

8.4.6. Hysteresis for positioner: set

The hysteresis determines the switching accuracy. It can be used to reduce the
number of starts for example.
This setting can only be made if the adaptive behaviour, parameter Adaptive
behaviour M0147, is set to Adaptive I.

Default values: 0.5 % for OPEN and CLOSE
Setting range: 0.2 % to 5.0 % of travel (from OPEN to CLOSED)
8.4.7. Closing fully/opening fully (end position tolerance for setpoint)
If the end positions cannot be reached due to inaccurate analogue setpoint signals
(0/4 mA or 20 mA), a tolerance for the setpoint within the end position range can be
set. If the tolerance is exceeded or not reached, the actuator continues the operation
until the full end position has been reached. This ensures that the actuator opens
and closes fully.
Customer settings M0041

Tolerance CLOSE M0150
Tolerance OPEN M0151
Default values:
Tolerance CLOSE = 0.0 %
Tolerance OPEN = 100.0 %
Setting ranges: (in percent of the travel)
Tolerance CLOSE = 0.0 – 5.0 %
Tolerance OPEN = 95 – 100.0 %
8.4.8. Setting range: limit
Setting range can be limited in directions OPEN and/or CLOSE.
This prevents end position(s) OPEN and/or CLOSED from being approached in
modulating duty. The actuator stops when reaching the set limit value.

8.4.9. Change-over between OPEN - CLOSE control and setpoint control
For actuators equipped with a positioner, it is possible to change over between OPEN
- CLOSE control (Remote OPEN-CLOSE) and setpoint control (Remote
SETPOINT).
Condition For the change-over, a digital input for the signal MODE has to be available and
configured.

Required user level: Specialist (4).

Device configuration M0053

Information The logic for the digital inputs may be inverted. Depending on the parameter setting
(e.g. Coding DIN 4 M0126), the input is either High active or Low active. Default
setting of MODE input is Low active.

Change-over via digital input MODE

Switching behaviour for coding Low active:

(Default factory setting)
● Input MODE = low level (0 V DC or input open) = Remote SETPOINT
The actuator reacts to a setpoint signal (e.g. 0/4 – 20 mA)
● Input MODE = high level (standard: +24 V DC) = Remote OPEN-CLOSE:
The actuator reacts to operation commands OPEN, STOP, CLOSE.

8.4.12. Split Range operation
Requirements ● <Positioner> function must be enabled and activated:

Function In Split Range operation, a setpoint position E1 can be shared by up to three

positioners. A typical application example is a pipeline with a by-pass. The actuator
mounted on the by-pass reacts in the lower limit (e.g. 0 – 10 mA), the actuator on
the main valve in the upper limit (e.g. 10 – 20 mA). If the setpoint position is within
the setpoint range defined for the individual actuator, the actuator behaviour will be
identical to standard positioner operation. If the setpoint position is higher or lower
than the upper or the lower limit of the setpoint range of the respective actuator, the
actuator will run to positions OPEN or CLOSED.
The upper and lower limit of the respective actuator is defined via the analogue input.
(<Input range of setpoint position>)
In addition, the upper and lower limit of the total target value (valid for all actuators
grouped in a split range operation).

8.5. Process controller
Requirements This function requires one of the following equipments within the actuator:
● Electronic control unit with MWG (non-intrusive version)
● Potentiometer
● Electronic position transmitter EWG/RWG
Further conditions for the process controller operation mode:
● Process controller enabled and activated.
● Operation mode Remote (Selector switch = position Remote control).

Characteristics The following figure illustrates the function of the process controller:
The process controller [2] receives the process setpoint E7 and the actual process
value E4 (e.g. from a sensor). On the basis of both values, the process controller
calculates the position setpoint E1 for positioner [3]. In turn, the positioner [3]
compares this target setpoint with the actual position value E2 of the valve and issues
the operation commands (OPEN - CLOSE) for the actuator.

Figure 38: Step response of P controller

P controller application For uncritical closed-loop applications allowing to accept continuous error variables
in the event of failures, e.g. pressure, flow, filling level and temperature control.
PI controller PI controllers consist of a P fraction immediately (actively) reacting to an error variable
and an I fraction for chronological integration of the input signal (error variable). Due
to the additional time constant of the I fraction, the output value takes more time to
reach the target status (i.e. inertia of control loop response) whereas positioning
accuracy increases at the same time (lower control deviation). Parameters for setting
the time constant: Reset time Ti M0745
Figure 39: Step response of PI controller

PI controller application Quick control circuits not allowing continuous error variables, e.g. pressure,
temperature and ratio control.
PID controller Compared to the PI controller, the PID controller has an additional D fraction
accounting for changes in the error variable (change rate). The D fraction quickly
reacts to changes, even to minor error variables with large output values. Parameter
for setting the D fraction: Rate time Td M0746

8.5.5. Inverse operation
As standard, the valve is opened by the modulating actuator as soon as the actual
process value falls below the process setpoint. Depending on the process, it may,
however, be necessary that the valve closes as soon as the actual process value
falls below the process setpoint. In this case, the respective parameters are used to

8.5.7. Setting procedure

The setting of the process controller largely depends on the area of controller
application. A PI controller suffices for most applications.
Procedure 1. Operate the controller as PI controller, i.e. set the parameters as follows:
- Proportional gain Kp = 1
- Reset time Ti = 1,000 s
- Rate time Td = 0
2. Double proportional gain Kp until the control loop starts to oscillate.
3. Reduce proportional gain Kp to 60 % of the set value.
4. Decrease reset time Ti until the error variable equals zero.
8.5.8. Proportional gain Kp: set
In the event of an error variable, the P portion immediately (i.e. actively) changes
the position value proportionally to the error variable.
If a small error variable already requires a major valve position adjustment, the
proportional gain Kp must be increased.

Information If the reaction is too extreme (overshoot), the value must be reduced. If the reaction
is too weak, the value must be increased.

Setting range: 0.1 ... 10.0
8.5.9. Reset time Ti: set
The reset time determines the I portion of the controller. The more inert a system,
the higher this value should be set.

Information ● Increase Ti in case of propensity for oscillation.

● Decrease Ti if the reactions are excessively delayed.

The rate time determines the D portion of the controller. Typically, no setting is
required here (= 0), since actuator and valve – due to the operating time – cannot
react abruptly to a sudden occurrence of an error variable.

Information ● Increase Td in case of propensity for oscillation.

8.7. By-pass function
Application The by-pass function is used, e.g. for district heating pipelines. Under high pipeline
pressure, the gate valve of the main valve cannot be used, pressure compensation
via by-pass valve is therefore required.
Function Two MOVs – one main valve and one by-pass valve – are linked via enable signals
Bypass Sync In and By-pass Sync Out. Operation commands can only be executed
if one of the two actuators sends the enable signal to the other device. Enable
depends on the end position.This ensures that only the following operation commands
may be executed:
● The main valve can only be operated in directions OPEN or CLOSE if the by-
pass valve is in end position OPEN.

Application functions AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2

EMERGENCY behaviour The EMERGENCY behaviour of the by-pass function has the same properties as
the <EMERGENCY behaviour> function with the following differences:
In an EMERGENCY situation, both actuator controls receive the EMERGENCY
signal at the same time. This signal starts the EMERGENCY operation specially
defined for the by-pass function. (Parameter EMCY operation M0204 is therefore
not available in the <EMERGENCY behaviour> function).
EMERGENCY operation procedure
1. By-pass valve is opened first.
2. Once the by-pass valve is fully opened, the main valve is closed.
3. Once the main valve is fully closed, the by-pass valve is fully opened.

8.8. Lift Plug Valve (LPV)
Application A "Lift Plug Valve" is a special valve whose closing element must first be lifted out
of its seat or locking position before being rotated for opening or closing the valve.
Valve locking and/or pressure relief prior to rotation of the closing element can thus
be implemented. Once the end position has been reached, the closing element has
to be lowered again. Such valves are particularly suited in case of significant pressure
differences (pressure relief) and safety-related systems (locking).
Requirements ● Two actuator controls and actuators are required, one of them is considered
as master actuator (MA), the other one as slave actuator (SA).
● The actuator controls of the master actuator require an additional <Parallel in-
terface > I/O Interface 2.

Function Due to the special design of the LPV valves, they can only be operated in
OPEN-CLOSE duty (no modulating duty). For this type of duty, two actuators are
required which are operated as a master-slave-system with main actuator (rotary
movement) and slave actuator (stroke movement). However, only one actuator or
actuator controls are "visible" at the DCS, i.e. the slave actuator is completely
controlled and monitored by the master actuator. Communication between master
and slave actuator is performed via the additional <Parallel interface> I/O Interface
2.
Figure 43: Schematic representation of the function of a Lift Plug Valve

The master actuator may generally only be operated in direction OPEN or CLOSE
if the slave actuator is fully opened. This is ensured by a signal of the slave actuator
to the digital LPV Sync In input of the master actuator as soon as the slave actuator
has reached end position OPEN. The slave actuator may generally only be operated
in direction CLOSE if the master actuator is in end position OPEN or CLOSED. This
is ensured by a corresponding signal of the master actuator to the digital LPV Sync
In input of the slave actuator. However, it can always be operated in direction OPEN.
If the master actuator receives an operation command for direction OPEN or CLOSE,
it will first send a command to the slave actuator for operation in direction OPEN.
Once the slave actuator has reached end position OPEN and sends the feedback
signal, the master actuator executes the requested operation command itself. After
reaching the desired end position, it will request the slave actuator to run to end
position CLOSED.

Unexpected starting of actuator!

When using automatic deblocking with level-controlled operation command evaluation,
unexpected starting of actuator into the wrong direction might occur when trying to
eliminate a double-sided torque fault (torque faults in directions OPEN and CLOSE
are present at the same time).
→ Use automatic deblocking only in combination with edge controlled operation
command evaluation (parameter Com. eval. REMOTE M1709).

Properties In case of torque switch tripping in intermediate position (i.e. prior to reaching the
end position), the actuator automatically attempts to reach the end position by
operation into the opposite direction and executing the actual operation command
once again.
The torque fault signal is suppressed during automatic deblocking. Should torque
switching trip again once automatic deblocking is complete, the actuator is switched
off and actuator controls signal a torque fault.

8.10. Heater system and heaters

Possible components:
● Heater system within the actuator controls
● Heaters within the actuator:
- Control unit heater in switch compartment
- Motor heater (within motor housing)

8.10.1. Heater system within the actuator controls

The heater system is generally used for low temperature (in low temperature version
up to –60 °C). For an installed heater system, the other heaters (control unit, motor
heater) will also be connected to the heater system.
Wiring diagram designation: R5 H
Marking of variants within the wiring diagram code (position 11)
● B = 115 V AC or 230 V AC externally supplied
● C, E, H = internally supplied via actuator controls
The heater system is temperature-controlled. The heater system will automatically
be activated for a temperature range between –5 °C and –10 °C and ensures that
the temperature within the controls housing does not fall below –20 °C.
8.10.2. Heater on control unit (actuator)

Properties For AUMA actuators with AC actuator controls, a resistance type heater is installed
on the control unit (within actuator switch compartment).
The heater minimises condensation within the actuator switch compartment.
Wiring diagram designation: R1 H
Marking within the wiring diagram code: position 11 = A – H

Information The proper function of the heater can be monitored. For further information, refer to
<Heater system/heater monitoring>.

Activate/deactivate heater on control unit

The heater on the control unit of the actuator can be activated/deactivated.

Activation/deactivation can either be permanent or automatically when
exceeding/falling short of defined temperature values. An electronic control unit
(MWG) is required for automatic setting.

Information If the heater is deactivated, heater monitoring is also deactivated (parameter Heater
monitor)!

Failure functions AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2

9. Failure functions
Definition Failure functions are started by certain events and lead to a defined action of the
controls or the actuator. A failure operation can be started by a manual action (e.g.
pressing an EMERGENCY stop button). In general, a failure operation is automatically
started by a fault signal from a monitoring function (e.g. loss of signal).
9.1. Reversing prevention time
Application Prevention of impermissible operation states such as: Operation command in direction
OPEN, actuator still runs in direction CLOSE due to the delay time.
Properties The reversing prevention time (off-time between two operation commands in opposite
direction) prevents a restart for a defined interval once the motor has switched off.

9.2. Failure behaviour on loss of signal
Characteristics The failure behaviour can be used to define AC reaction to loss of signal or a defective
signal.
Only in operation mode Remote will the failure behaviour react to a signal loss. In
operation modes Local or Off, there will be no reaction.

This setting ensures that if the signal is missing, the actuator will not start when
switching on (Good signal first).
Immediately active The <Failure behaviour> is immediately initiated if the monitored signal is missing
(is not present).
For the setting Immediately active:

Risk of immediate actuator operation when switching on!

Risk of personal injuries or damage to the valve.
→ Ensure that the signal set under parameter Source M0385 is present when
switching on.

Failure behaviour M0378

Source M0385
Default value: I/O interface
Setting values:
I/O interface The failure behaviour is initiated in case of setpoint loss (setpoint position, process
setpoint, actual process value).
The monitoring depends on the preset setpoint range, e.g.:
● Setpoint = 4 – 20 mA, E1 lower than 3.7 mA = loss of signal
● Setpoint = 10 – 20 mA, E1 lower than 9.7 mA = loss of signal
Information ● For a setpoint range of 0 – 20 mA , monitoring is not possible.
● Actuator controls will only respond to a setpoint signal loss, if a signal is present
at the MODE input, i.e. actuator controls are in operation mode Remote SET-
POINT (setpoint control).

9.2.3. Failure operation (reaction of the actuator) on loss of signal

The failure operation defines which action is executed by the actuator once the failure
behaviour is initiated.
Customer settings M0041
Failure behaviour M0378
Failure operation M0384
Default value: STOP
Setting values:
STOP The actuator stops in the current position.
CLOSE The actuator runs to end position CLOSED.
OPEN The actuator runs to end position OPEN.
Approach position The actuator runs to the specified position. Conditions:
● The function <Positioner> is activated.
● Parameter Source M0385 is set to I/O interface

Execute last CMD The actuator executes the last operation command before it is stopped.
If the last operation command was a setpoint definition via analogue input (AIN 1/AIN
2), the lower limit of the setpoint position is used (parameter Low limit AIN 1/Low
limit AIN 2). The actuator is operated to the defined end position, usually end position
CLOSED.
Behaviour depending on the selector switch position

Once the failure operation is triggered, the defined position is approached. If the
actuator is then moved to another position (e.g. by manual operation), it will try to
perform the set failure operation while the selector switch is in position Remote
control (REMOTE).

Information To prevent a new approach to the failure position during manual operation, the se-
lector switch must be set to position Local control (LOCAL) or 0 (OFF) prior to
operating the handwheel.

9.3. EMERGENCY behaviour
Application The EMERGENCY behaviour can be used to determine the actuator behaviour in
an emergency.
Characteristics ● The function <EMERGENCY behaviour> is initiated by the EMERGENCY signal.
● The actuator performs a defined EMERGENCY operation. For example, the
actuator moves to a predefined EMERGENCY position (i.e. end position OPEN
or end position CLOSED).
● As long as the EMERGENCY signal is present, the actuator does not respond
to any other operation commands (EMERGENCY signal has top priority).
● After initiating the EMERGENCY behaviour, binary operation commands (via
digital inputs) may have to be sent again.
● Analogue operation commands (e.g. 0/4 – 20 mA) are immediately executed
again.

Condition For the function <EMERGENCY behaviour>, a digital input for the signal
EMERGENCY has to be available and configured.

● via the RESET push button in selector switch position Local control (LOCAL).
● via a digital input from Remote. Assignment: RESET
9.9. Partial Valve Stroke Test (PVST)
Properties The Partial Valve Stroke Test (PVST) is used to check the function of both actuator
and actuator controls. During this test, the function of the valve is tested by means
of partial opening or closing within a defined period of time without interrupting the
process. After successful testing, actuator controls operate the actuator to its initial
position.
If the test was not successful, actuator controls will generate the following signals:
PVST fault PVST abort. For monitoring the PVST, these signals must be evaluated
by a PLC.
Requirements ● Position transmitter in the actuator
● If the actuator is in safe state (caused by the failure behaviour), the test will not
be performed.
● The test can only be performed during OPEN - CLOSE control. For setpoint
control (modulating duty), a test cannot be performed.
For the change-over, a digital input for the signal Execute PVST has to be available
and configured.

The parameter values “2” and “3” will be explained hereafter.
Activation/deactivation via I/O, fieldbus or selector switch position OFF

The Bluetooth interface can have three different states:

BT_OFF The Bluetooth interface is deactivated. To establish a connection via a master is not
possible. The Bluetooth LED (blue) of the local controls is switched off.
BT_READY The Bluetooth interface is activated and waits for connection by a master. The
Bluetooth LED (blue) of the local controls is blinking.
BT_CONNECTED The Bluetooth interface is connected to a master. The Bluetooth LED is permanently
illuminated.

Actuator controls
Failure functions AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2

Properties of the input signals:

● The inputs are edge triggered.
● The Bluetooth interface is activated by rising edge.
● The Bluetooth interface is deactivated by falling edge.
Information For details on the process representation, please refer to <Manual (Device integration
Fieldbus) AC .2/ACV .2 actuator controls>.
If the parameter corresponds to the value “2” or “3”, the Bluetooth interface is in
status “BT_OFF” when switching on the actuator controls.
By activating the Bluetooth interface, the status will change from “BT_OFF” to
“BT_READY”.The duration for the interface to remain in status “BT_READY” depends
on the selected parameter value.
Parameter value 2 – fieldbus or I/O
The Bluetooth interface remains in the “BT_READY” status until a connection is
established. Exception: In case a master was already connected, the status will
change to “BT_OFF” once the set time is exceeded.
Parameter value 3 – selector switch position OFF
The Bluetooth interface remains in the “BT_READY” status until the set time is
exceeded. Once the set time is exceeded, the status will change to “BT_OFF”.
If a Bluetooth master tries to connect within the set time, the connection will be
established. The interface will then change to status “BT_CONNECTED”.
● Generally, the status is always signalled either via fieldbus or via I/O interface.
● The Bluetooth interface may at any time be interrupted via the fieldbus or the
I/O interface. The status will then directly change to “BT_OFF”.
● Deactivation via the selector switch is not possible.
The following graphic chart describes the overall behaviour of the Bluetooth interface:

Monitoring functions AC 01.2/ACExC 01.2

10. Monitoring functions

Definition The monitoring functions signal a warning or a fault as soon as a certain value is
outside the permissible range. Faults generally cause an actuator shutdown.

10.1. Torque monitoring

Torque monitoring has the following functions:
● Valve overload protection against excessive torques (leads to switching off)
● Torque warning before overload protection tripping (only in combination with
electronic control unit in the actuator)
Overload protection
Once the overload protection trips (torque exceeds set tripping torque), the actuator
is stopped.
Actuator controls generate a fault indication if:
● Excessive torque occurs between end positions
● Excessive torque occurs in the end positions and limit seating is set.
The fault indication is shown in the display
● Status indication: S0007 Fault or S0011 Failure
- Details: Torque fault CLOSE or Torque fault OPEN
The fault has to be acknowledged before the operation can be resumed:
1. Either by an operation command in the opposite direction.
- For Torque fault CLOSE: Operation command in direction OPEN
- For Torque fault OPEN: Operation command in direction CLOSE
2. Or, in case the torque applied is lower than the preset tripping torque after
tripping:
- via the RESET push button in selector switch position Local control
(LOCAL).
Depending on the version, tripping torques for overload protection are either set via
switches in the actuator or via software parameters in the controls. For the settings,
refer to <Torque switching> chapter.
Torque warning
Requirements Actuator with electronic control unit (MWG) .
The torque warning can be used e.g. for self-monitoring or for anticipating
maintenance requirements.
Customer settings M0041
Torque switching M0013
Wrn torque CLOSE M0769
Wrn torque OPEN M0768
Default value: 80 %
Setting range: 20 ... 100 % of the set nominal torque
When exceeding the set limit values, the actuator is not stopped, however, the
controls generate a warning signal:
● Status indications: S0005 Warnings or S0008 Out of specification
- Details: Torque wrn CLOSE or Torque wrn OPEN

10.1.1. Torque by-pass

By means of the torque by-pass, the torque monitoring is deactivated for a defined
(short) time. During this interval, the full actuator torque may be used, for example,
to release the actuator from a blocked end position or any other jammed position.

event of reversal of operation.

10.1.2. Torque limitation of torque by-pass

For activated torque by-pass, the torque monitoring (parameter Torque by-pass
M0092) is deactivated for a defined (short) time. By activating the torque limitation,
torque monitoring will be activated again, but not in relation to the set tripping torque
but in relation to a torque peak which can be set separately via this function.

10.2. Motor protection monitoring (thermal monitoring)

In order to protect against overheating and impermissibly high surface temperatures
at the actuator, PTC thermistors or thermoswitches are embedded in the motor
winding. Motor protection trips as soon as the max. permissible winding temperature
has been reached.
The actuator is switched off and the following fault signals are issued:
● LED 3 (factory setting: motor protection tripped) on the local controls is illumin-
ated.
● Status indications S0007 Fault or S0011 Failure display a fault.
The fault Details is displayed when selecting Thermal fault.
The motor has to cool down before the operation can be resumed.
Depending on the parameter setting (motor protection behaviour), the fault signal is
either automatically reset or the fault signal has to be acknowledged manually.
Manual acknowledgement can be made:
● In selector switch position Local control (LOCAL) via push button RESET.
● In selector switch position Remote control (REMOTE) via a digital (I/O interface)
with the RESET command if a digital input is configured for RESET signal.
In addition, the actuator controls cyclically (once per month) check the motor
protection monitoring for its proper function. If this check fails, the actuator controls
generate the fault indication: IE mot. prot. monitor

Once the motor has cooled down, the fault has to be acknowledged (reset) manually
as described above.
If required the thermal overload relay has to be reset manually. To this end, remove
the cover on the back of actuator controls and operate the reset button on the thermal
overload relay.
10.3. Type of duty monitoring (motor starts and running time)
This function monitors the permissible type of duty (e.g. S2 - 15 min) of the actuator.
For this, actuator controls monitor possible excess of
● Permissible motor starts (cycles) per hour
● Permissible running time (on-time) per hour
If any of these values has been exceeded, the actuator will however not be stopped,
but the following warning signals are issued.
● Status indications: S0005 or S0008
- Details: Wrn op.mode starts
● Status indications: S0005 or S0008
- Details: Wrn op.mode run time

10.5. Reaction monitoring
The actuator controls monitor whether the actuator moves after receiving an operation
command.
If no reaction is recorded at the output drive of the actuator within a set time, either
a warning or a fault signal is generated depending on the setting:
● Status indication: S0005 Warnings or S0008 Out of specification
- Details: Wrn no reaction
● Status indication: S0007 Fault or S0011 Failure
- Details: Fault no reaction
In the event of a fault signal, the fault has to be acknowledged to be able to resume
the operation. The acknowledgement is made:
● In selector switch position Local control (LOCAL) via push button RESET.
● In selector switch position Remote control (REMOTE) via a digital (I/O interface)
with the RESET command if a digital input is configured for RESET signal.
In case of operation from an intermediate position, reaction monitoring will only be
performed if the actuator is equipped with position feedback function.

10.10. Verification of sub-assemblies
Conditions ● Actuators with electronic control unit

Characteristics The controls verify whether sub-assemblies mounted in actuators and controls
correspond to the desired version.
In case incorrect sub-assemblies are mounted or if sub-assemblies are missing the
controls either send a warning or a fault signal.
For detailed information on this indication refer to <Fault signals and warnings>
chapter.
10.11. Phase failure monitoring
Conditions: Phase failure monitoring is only valid for connections to 3-phase AC power supplies.
For versions with 1-phase AC or DC, phase failure monitoring is not possible.
Properties The actuator controls monitor phase L2. If phase L2 is missing for a certain time
interval, the actuator controls can still send and receive signals and generate a fault
indication. Since the actuator controls are supplied via phases L1 and L3, the two
phases cannot be monitored. In case L1 or L3 fails, the actuator controls are
inoperable and the actuator stops.

Information In case of L2 phase loss during motor operation, this does not necessarily lead to
an immediate standstill of the actuator.The reason is that the rotating motor generates
the missing phase itself. This leads, however, to a reduction of the motor output
torque. If the applied torque is sufficient for valve operation, the missing phase L2
is only detected when switching off (e.g. in an end position) and the Phase fault fault
signal is generated as a consequence.

10.12. Phase sequence detection and correction of the direction of rotation

Conditions: The phase sequence detection is only valid for connections to 3-phase AC power
supplies. For versions with 1-phase AC or DC, phase sequence detection is not
possible.
Properties Exchanging any two phase conductors in the 3-phase mains changes the direction
of phase rotation. Should phases L1, L2 and L3 be connected in the wrong sequence,
this is detected and corrected by the AUMATIC: This prevents the actuator to rotate
in the incorrect direction.

12. Product variants

12.1. Multiport valve

The multiport valve function is considered as product variant and must be activated
in the factory. Only for an activated multiport valve function will the respective
parameters be available for setting in the actuator controls menu.
Properties The multiport valve function allows to directly access a valve port of a valve equipped
with several ports without stopping at any other port. Example: Operation from position
2 to 4 without stopping at position 3.
In operation mode Local, up to 16 positions can be approached. Operation mode
Remote allows the function “next position” also up to 16 positions.
Depending on the setting, the actuator will either operate the valve at a defined
direction of rotation (counterclockwise or clockwise) or as quickly as possible
(irrespective of the actuator position) to the specified valve port.
Procedure for commissioning a multiport valve

1. Set/check multiport valve parameters:

(generally, they are set in the factory prior to delivery)
- Actuator type
- Gear reduction ratio
- Number of ports (positions)
- Configuration of digital inputs
2. Define/check positions (of valve ports).
3. Set/check signal behaviour of positions.
4. Set home port (zero position).
5. Approach positions.
6. If required, perform/correct multiport valve parameter settings like inertia, dead
band, backlash compensation and hysteresis.
7. If further multiport valve parameters were set: Reset the homeport and re-set
parameters as required.

13.1. Direction of rotation
Properties This function allows changing the direction of rotation for actuator with 3-phase AC
motors.
The direction of rotation indicates the direction into which the drive shaft rotates
around its own axis. The view is on the top of the actuator. Distinction is made
between clockwise and counterclockwise rotation.

Information ● When changing from clockwise closing to counterclockwise closing or vice

versa, only the direction of rotation of the motor is changed. The change-over
requires further action:
- The wiring diagram designation is marked on the actuator controls name
plate. In case of a change, a new name plate with the new wiring diagram
number has to be requested from AUMA.
- The wiring diagram number of the actuator is stored in the electronic device
ID (parameter Wiring diag. actuator M0060). The ID has to be adapted to
the new designation once conversion is complete.
- The actuator mounted to the actuator controls must be configured for the
set direction of rotation. Subsequent conversion from clockwise closing
to counterclockwise closing is possible using an AUMA conversion kit.

Parameters and instructions for setting

Setting the direction of rotation using parameters is only possible for actuators with
electronic control unit/MWG (Non-intrusive version).

Valve damage due to incorrect direction of rotation!

→ For 3-phase AC motors, the rotation direction of the actuator must match the
rotation direction of the valve.

15. Asset Management

The Asset Management function provides information (operational data, signals,
reports and characteristics), which can be used within an asset management system
but also generally for support during commissioning, maintenance or corrective
action.
15.1. Operating data
Operating data provides details e.g. about the running time, the number of starts,
number of torque faults etc.
The analysis of this data provides valuable information regarding the optimization of
both actuator and valve. When using this information purposefully, actuator and valve
will be carefully operated, e.g. through appropriate parameter setting. In case of
faults, the logging of operating data allows for quick fault diagnostic.

15.5. Maintenance (information and signals)
Properties Actuator controls monitor various parameters set in the factory which have an impact
on the wear of the actuator. Once one of these parameters exceeds a determined
limit, the actuator controls generate a signal:
● Status indication: S0005 Warnings (AUMA category)
- Details: Maintenance required
● Status indication: S0010 Maintenance required (NAMUR category)
- Details: shows the parameter(s) for which the limit was exceeded, causing
the Maintenance required signal.
Apart from the parameter monitoring preset in the factory (MT lifetime
mechanics/seals/lubricant/reversing contactors), a fixed maintenance interval can
additionally be configured, triggering the same signal when exceeding the configured
time.
The current maintenance status of the monitored parameters is represented in a bar
chart.
Once maintenance is complete, the parameter initiating maintenance must be reset
to zero.
Application Maintenance on demand, i.e. the function can be used to perform maintenance
depending on the intensity and load of the actuator.
