To calibrate the positioner, proceed as de-

scribed in section 4 of EB 8331-2 EN.

5.4.2 Simplest method to calibrate

the actuator

If tools, such as the TROVIS-VIEW software

or a PC, are not available for calibration of

the actuator and the actuator operation with

maximum precision is not necessary, the

simplest calibration method can be per-

formed as follows:
1. Position the selector switch (2) to operat-

ing mode 0 =

.

2. Press down the travel calibration button

(5) for at least 15 seconds until both sig-
nal lamps light up.

3. Release the button to start calibration.

The actuator stem extends until the
torque-dependent switches switch off the
actuator.
The position of the potentiometer is
checked.

4. Re-adjust the potentiometer, if necessary,

while observing the signal lamps. Refer
to the description given on page 14 of
EB 8331-2 EN.
After adjusting the potentiometer, the
calibration of the actuator is continued.

Mount the actuator on the valve and set

the positioner as described in section

4.3 of these instructions.
