1. Design and principle of operation
The positioner essentially consists of an in-
ductive, non-contact travel measuring sys-
tem and an electrically controlled valve
block comprising two 2/2-way on-off
valves and an electronic unit. This unit con-
tains two microcontrollers for processing the
control algorithm and managing the com-
munication.
Whenever a deviation between the actual
valve travel (actual value) and the reference
variable (set point) occurs, the microcontrol-
ler produces binary pulse-pause modulated
signals to control the two 2/2-way on-off
valves, each of which is assigned an am-
plifier. One of these valves controls the ex-
haust air, and the other one controls the sup-
ply air.
The supply air valve (3) switches the supply
air (7, supply air pressure 1.4 to 6 bar) to
the actuator (filling). The exhaust air valve
(4) controls the air exhausted from the actu-
ator to the atmosphere (venting). These on-
off valves can either have the switching
states - permanently open, permanently
closed - or generate single pulses of chang-
ing widths. With the two valves being con-
trolled, the plug stem moves to a position
corresponding to the reference variable. If
there is no system deviation, both the supply
air and the exhaust air valve are closed.
As a standard feature, the positioner is
equipped with a fault alarm output (binary
output according to N 60947-5-6) used to
signalize a fault to the control room.
Activating the write protection switch lo-
cated in the hinged cover prevents the posi-
tioner settings from being overwritten by the
HART® protocol.
Forced venting function
The positioner is controlled via a 6 to
24 V signal, causing the signal pressure
to be applied to the actuator. If this volt-
age signal decreases, the signal pressure is
shut off and the actuator is vented. The
springs contained in the actuator move the
valve to its fail-safe position.
The forced venting function is installed in all
positioners from model index .03 or higher.
The function can be activated or deacti-
vated by a switch. See section 4.2 (page
34) for more details.
1.1 Options
As a supplement to the standard positioner
version, there are several additional options
to extend the positioner functions.
Limit switches
To signalize the valves end positions in fail-
safe circuits, either two software limit swit-
ches or two proximity switches can be used.
Position transmitter
The position transmitter is an intrinsically
safe 2-wire transmitter controlled by the
microcontroller of the positioner. It serves to
assign the valve position with the 4 to 20
mA output signal. The position transmitter
signalizes both end positions, "valve closed"
or "valve fully open", as well as all inter-
mediate positions. Since the valve positions
are signalized to the positioner inde-
pendently of the input signal (minimum
current must be observed), the position
transmitter is a suitable option for checking
the current valve position.
10 EB 8380-1 EN
Design and principle of operation

1.2 Communication
For communication, the positioner is
equipped with an interface for the HART®
protocol (Highway Addressable Remote
Transducer). Data transmission is accom-
plished by superimposing an FSK signal
(FSK = Frequency Shift Keying) over the
existing 4 to 20 mA signal lines for the refer-
ence variable.
You can configure and operate the posi-
tioner either via HART®-compatible, hand-
held communicator or via PC, using an FSK
modem and an RS-232 interface.
After mechanically resetting the positioner
to zero, it can be automatically started up
via initialization procedure. During this in-
itialization procedure, zero is automatically
adjusted, and the preset span is checked.

Design and principle of operation

The positioner is supplied with a standard
configuration applying to a valve with
15 mm rated travel, which is designed for
integrated positioner attachment.
An individual configuration needed to
adapt the positioner to deviating actuators
can only be carried out by means of a com-
municator or a PC with a connected FSK
modem, using the HART® protocol.
You can enter the following parameters:
control characteristic, direction of action,
limitation of travel, travel range, transit time
to travel and fault messages.

Design and principle of operation

2. Attachment to the control valve
The positioner can be attached either di-
rectly to a SAMSON Type 3277 Actuator,
or according to Namur (I C 60534-6), to
control valves with cast yokes or rod-type
yokes.
In combination with an intermediate piece,
the device can also be attached as rotary
positioner to rotary actuators.
Since the standard positioner unit is de-
livered without accessories, the required
mounting parts and their order numbers
have to be derived from the tables.
Note!
For quick-acting control valves with a small
travel volume (transit time < 0.6 s), it might
be necessary to replace the filter installed in
the output pressure bore with a screw-in
throttle to obtain good control properties.
For further information, refer to sections
2.1, 2.2 and 2.3.
Caution!
The positioner does not have a venting
plug. Instead the air is e hausted via vent-
ing plugs on the mounting parts (see also
Fig. 3, 5 and 7).
A filter check valve for the e haust air is sup-
plied with every positioner (located under-
neath a transparent cover at the back of the
positioner). Use this filter check valve in
place of the standard venting plug included
in the accessories. The IP 65 degree of pro-
tection to prevent dirt and moisture entering
the device is only achieved when this filter
check valve is used.

Attachment to the control valve

2.1 Direct attachment to Type 3277
Actuator
For the selection of the required mounting
parts, refer to Tables 1, 2 and 3 page 17).
When looking at the signal pressure connec-
tion or the switchover plate (Fig. 3) from the
top, the positioner must be attached to the
left side of the actuator. The arrow on the
black case cover (Fig. 12) should then point
towards the diaphragm chamber.
Exception: Control valves in which the plug
closes the seat area when the actuator stem
retracts. In this case, the positioner has to
be attached to the right side of the yoke, i.e.
with the arrow pointing away from the dia-
phragm chamber).
1. First screw the clamp (1.2) to the actua-
tor stem. Make sure the fastening screw
is located in the groove of the actuator
stem.
2. Screw the associated lever D1 or D2 to
the transmission lever of the positioner.
3. Fasten distance plate (15) with seal to-
wards the actuator yoke.
4. Place positioner on the plate (15) so
that the lever D1 or D2 will slide centri-
cally over the pin of the clamp (1.2).
Then screw on to distance plate (15).
5. Attach cover (16).
Note!
For quick-acting control valves (transit time
< 0.6 s), it is necessary to replace the filter
installed in the output pressure bore (Output
38) with a screw-in throttle (accessories spe-
cified in Table 3).
Actuator with 240, 350 and 700 cm2
6. Check whether the tongue of the
seal (17) is aligned on the side of the
connection block such that the actuator
symbols for "Actuator stem extends" or
"Actuator stem retracts" match the actu-
ator design.
Otherwise, remove the three fixing
screws, remove the cover plate (18) and
reinsert the seal (17) turned by 180°.
When using an old connection block,
turn the switch plate (19) such that the
corresponding actuator symbol is
aligned with the arrow.
7. Place connection block with the associ-
ated sealing rings against the positioner
and the actuator yoke and screw it
tight, using the fastening screw.
For actuators with fail-safe action "actu-
ator stem retracts", additionally install
the ready-made signal pressure pipe
between the connection block and the
actuator.
Actuator with 120 cm2
With Type 3277-5 Actuator with 120 cm2
the signal pressure is transmitted via the
switchover plate to the diaphragm chamber.
For a rated travel of 7.5 mm, a brass
throttle has to be pressed into the seal lo-
cated in the signal pressure input on the ac-
tuator yoke. With 15 mm rated travel, this
is only required when the supply air press-
ure is higher than 4 bar.
6. Remove the vent plug on the back of the
positioner and close the side-located
signal pressure output (38) with the
plug from the accessory kit.

7. Mount the positioner so that the hole in
the distance plate (15) matches the seal
located in the hole of the actuator yoke.
8. Align the switchover plate with the
corresponding symbol for left attach-
ment according to the marking and
screw tight onto the actuator yoke.

the positioner, a solenoid valve or a similar
device is attached to the actuator, do not
remove the rear M3 screw. In this case, the
signal pressure has to be fed from the sig-
nal pressure output to the actuator via the
required connecting plate (see Table 2). The
switchover plate is not used.
Note!
For quick-acting control valves (transit time
< 0.6 s), it is necessary to replace the filter
installed in the output pressure bore (Output
38) with a screw-in throttle (accessories spe-
cified in Table 3).
Filling the spring chamber with air
If the spring chamber of the Type 3277 Ac-
tuator must be filled with the air exhausted
from the positioner, the spring chamber (ver-
sion "Actuator stem extends") can be con-
nected to the connection block by means of
a tube (see Table 3). To proceed, remove
the venting plug in the connection block.
In Type 3277-5 when "Actuator stem re-
tracts" the exhausted air from the positioner
is constantly applied to the spring chamber
through an internal hole.

Attachment to the control valve

1) Order with every pressure gauge kit: 2 restrictions (1790-6121)
1) 1402-0938 1402-0939

2.2 Attachment according to
IEC 0534-
For the selection of the required mounting
parts, refer to Tables 4 and 5 page 21).
The positioner is attached according to
NAMUR using an adapter housing as
shown in Fig. 4. The valve travel is trans-
mitted via the lever (18) and the shaft (25)
to the bracket (28) of the adapter housing
and then to the pin (27a) located at the posi-
tioner lever.
To attach the positioner, the mounting parts
listed in Table 4 are required. Which lever
is to be used depends on the rated valve
travel.
Once the positioner is attached, however,
the arrow on the black case cover has to
point downwards away from the dia-
phragm actuator. (Exception: Control
valves in which the plug closes the seat area
when the actuator stem retracts. In this case,
the arrow has to point towards the dia-
phragm actuator).
Note!
For quick-acting control valves (transit time
< 0.6 s), it is necessary to replace the filter
installed in the output pressure bore (Output
38) with a screw-in throttle (accessories spe-
cified in Table 4).
2.2.1 Mounting sequence
NOTE
Before you mount the parts, load the actua-
tor with air pressure so that the valve is set
to 50 % of its travel. This will ensure the
e act alignment of the lever (18) and the
bracket (28).
Control valve with cast yoke
1. Use countersunk screws to screw the
plate (20) to the coupling which con-
nects the plug and actuator stem. With
2100 and 2800 cm2 actuators, use ad-
ditional mounting bracket (32).
2. Remove rubber plug from the adapter
housing and fasten the housing to the
NAMUR rib, using the hexagon head
screw.
Control valve with rod-type yoke
1. Screw plate (20) to the follower clamp
of the plug stem.
2. Screw studs (29) into the adapter hous-
ing.
3. Place the housing with the plate (30) on
either the right or left side of the valve
rod and screw the housing tight by
using nuts (31). While doing so, make
sure that lever (18) to be mounted sub-
sequently is horizontal (when the valve
is at midtravel).
4. Screw the pin in a hole in the center
row of holes in the plate (20) and lock it
such that it will be located above the
correct lever marking (1 to 2) for the as-
signed travel, see Table 5. Intermediate
values must be calculated. Beforehand,

pin.
5. Measure the distance between the cen-
ter of the shaft (25) and the center of
the pin (19). You will be prompted for
this value subsequently during the con-
figuration of the positioner.
2.2.2 Presetting the valve travel
1. Adjust the shaft (25) in the adapter
housing so that the black pointer (24) is
aligned with the casted marking on the
adapter housing.
2. Screw tight clamping plate (22) in this
position, using a screw (23).
3. Screw in the pin (27) at the positioner
lever (26) and secure it with a hex nut
on the opposite side. Note the mount-
ing position A or B respectively accord-
ing to Table 5 and Fig. 5.
4. Put the positioner to the adapter hous-
ing such that the pin (27) will lie
properly within the arms of the bracket
(28).
To do so, insert a 2.5 mm Allen key or
a screwdriver from the front into the
hole located below the oblong hole on
the cover plate, and push the positioner
lever in the required position.
5. Screw the positioner to the adapter
housing.
6. Relieve the actuator from the signal
pressure.
