Ex-tb type junction box must be equipped with min IP64 rated Ex certified cable glands.
The layout uses Annex F, of EN 60079-11. Therefore the installation environment shall
comply with EN 60664 pollution degree 2 requirements.
While the power is connected, make sure that do not open SP520 power terminal box.
Before opening terminal box, make sure that power is off completely and after erasing
current and voltage completely, it must be opened.
SP520 series positioner have 2 ports for power connection. If one side of connection must
be used when using explosive cable or flame explosion proof to packing plug in the other
side should be used explosive blind plug in order to protect. (In case that the other items
shall be required to use except our company's supplying plug blind approved resistance to
explosion proof type structure shielding fitting or flame explosion proof type cable gland
must be used when connecting power on.)
Ring terminal with surface area of more that 0.195 mm2with should be used and also M4
spring washer should be used to prevent failing out.
For external ground terminal, ring terminal with surface area of more than 5.5 mm2 should
be used.
There will be risk of explosion due to electro-static charge. Static electricity charge may
develop when cleaning the products with a dry cloth. It is imperative to avoid static electricity
charge in the hazard area. If cleaning the surface of the products is required, please use wet
clothes.
1-9 Safety to maintain intrinsic safety (Ex i) Proof (SP520) in danger area.
Check that explosion proof certification is valid in usage condition and must meet with
condition.
SP520 positioner is using Intrinsic safety proof (EX ia IIC T6/T5 Gb) code. and It can be
used in Zone 1,2 area.
Barrier must be installed in safety area.
SP520 positioner’s intrinsic safety’s parameter is as followings.
Main power : Ui=DC28V, Ii=93mA, Pi=0.65W, Ci=0.5nF, Li=10μH
Feedback signal power : Ui=DC28V, Ii=93mA, Pi=0.65W, Ci=57.5nF, Li=10μH
Limit switch : Ui=DC28V, Ii=100mA, Pi=0.65W, Ci=0nF, Li=0μH
(See Table in Sections 2-6)
- Do not open the power terminal box cover of the SP520 product while there is potential
explosive atmosphere.
- SP520 has two power inlets. When using an explosion-proof cable or pressure-resistant
packing conduit, if only one power inlet is used, the other must be blocked with an
explosion-proof plug.

2-8 Principle of Operation
(1) LINEAR TYPE
When the input signal (4~20mA) is input, the input current is transmitted to the coil of the
Torque Motor (1) and magnetic force is generated in the core. Move to the left. As a result of
the action, the gap between the nozzle (17) and the spring support (5) is opened, and the
pressure in the nozzle pressure chamber (18) drops, resulting in a pressure difference with the
pressure chamber (19).
Accordingly, Spool (9) pushes Poppet A (12) to open port A, and the output of OUT1 raises the
diaphragm valve (3) valve to the top.
In accordance with this movement, the Feedback Lever (20) moves upward and transmits it to
the Output Shaft, and the port A closes and the output of out1 stops and the diaphragm valve (3)
is stopped until the pressure reaches the desired position by repeating the action.

(2) ROTARY TYPE
When the input signal (4~20mA) is input, the input current is transmitted to the coil of the
Torque Motor (1), and magnetic force is generated in the core. With this magnetic force, the
flapper (4) receives the force to the right and the spring support (5) is Move to the left. As a
result of the action, the gap between the nozzle (17) and the spring support (5) is widened and
the pressure in the nozzle pressure chamber (18) drops, resulting in a pressure difference with
the pressure chamber (19).
Accordingly, Spool(9) pushes Poppet A(12) to open port A, and the output of OUT1 pushes
Actuator(3) to the right, rotates actuator stem(21), and is transferred to Cam(20).
According to this movement, the Span Lever(6) is moved and the spring support(5) is pulled
through the Span lever spring(14), and the gap between the nozzle(17) and the spring
support(5) becomes narrow again, and port A is closed and the output of out1 This stopping
and stopping the actuator (3) is repeated until the pressure is equalized to reach the desired
position.
Conversely, if the input current is small, the nozzle flapper (9) blocks the nozzle (8) and the
pressure in the nozzle pressure chamber (18) increases, and the spool (9) becomes Poppet B
(8) according to the pressure difference with the pressure chamber (19). Push to open port B
and the output of OUT2 is connected to the actuator (3), and the actuator stem (21) rotates.
