Principle of operation (Fig. 3)
The three-way valve in combination with a controller with
electric actuator is only available as a mixing valve. The media
to be mixed enter the valve at ports A and B. The combined flow
exits the valve at port AB.
The position of the plug stem (6) determines the cross-sectional 8
area of flow between the plug (3) and the seat (2). The plug is
8.1
moved by changing the control signal acting on the actuator.
1
The electric actuator contains a digital controller integrated into
6
the actuator. The controlled variable is recorded over the di-
2
rectly connected Pt 1000 sensor. The output signal of the digital A AB
controller acts as a three-point stepping signal on the synchro- 3
nous motor of the actuator and is transferred over the connected
gear as a positioning force onto the actuator stem (8.1).
The Type 5725 Controller with Electric Actuator with safety B
function is fitted with a spring assembly and an electromagnet
that can be connected to a safety control circuit. When the con-
trol circuit is interrupted or the power supply fails, the magnet
disengages the gear from the self-locking motor and releases 1 Valve body
the spring assembly. The actuator is available with fail-safe ac- 2 Seat
