3 Design and principle ofoperation
The electropneumatic positioner is attachedto pneumatic control valves. It is used to as-sign the valve stem position (controlled vari-able x) to the control signal (set point w).The input signal received from a control sys-tem is compared to the travel or rotationalangle of the control valve, and a pneumaticsignal pressure (output variable y) is pro-duced.
The positioner consists of a travel sensor sys-tem proportional to resistance, an analogi/p converter with a downstream boosterand the electronics unit with microcontroller.
When a set point deviation occurs, the actu-ator is pressurized or vented. If required, thechanges in the signal pressure can beslowed down by a connectable Q restriction.The signal pressure supplied to the actuatorcan be limited by software or on site to 1.4,2.4 or 3.7 bar.
A constant air stream to the atmosphere iscreated by the flow regulator (9) with afixed set point. The air stream is used topurge the inside of the case as well as to op-timize the air capacity booster. The i/pmodule (6) is supplied with a constant up-stream pressure by the pressure regulator(8) to make it independent of the supply airpressure.

The positioner communicates and is pow-ered using IEC 61158-2 transmission tech-nology conforming to the PROFIBUS-PAspecification.
As a standard feature, the positioner comeswith a binary input for DC voltage signals tosignalize process information over thePROFIBUS-PA.
The extended EXPERTplus diagnostics are in-tegrated into the positioner. They provide in-formation on the positioner and generatesdiagnostic and status messages, which allowfaults to be pinpointed quickly.
The positioner is suitable for the followingtypes of attachment using the correspondingaccessories:4 Direct attachment to SAMSON
Type 3277 Actuator: section 4.14 Attachment to actuators according to
IEC 60534-6 (NAMUR): section 4.24 Attachment to rotary actuators according
to VDI/VDE 3847: section 4.34 Attachment to Type 3510 Micro-flow
Valve: section 4.44 Attachment to rotary actuators according
to VDI/VDE 3845: section 4.5
3.1 Additional equipment
Solenoid valve
If the operating voltage for the solenoidvalve (12) fails, the supply pressure for thebooster is vented to the atmosphere. As aresult, the actuator is vented and the valvemoves to the fail-safe position.
NOTICEIn manual mode (MAN), the manual setpoint is also reset to 0 %. A different manualset point must be entered again (Code 1).
Inductive limit switch
The rotary shaft of the positioner carries anadjustable tag which actuates the installedproximity switch.
External position sensor
In this version, only the sensor is mounted tothe control valve. The positioner is locatedseparately from the valve.The connection of x and y signals to thevalve is established by cable and piping forair (only without inductive limit switch).
Binary contact
All positioners are fitted with a binary inputfor DC voltage signals over which processinformation can be issued over thePROFIBUS-PA network.Another optional binary input is an activeinput powered by the positioner to connect afloating contact. Its switching condition canalso be issued over the PROFIBUS-PA net-work.

Design and principle of operation
3.2 Communication
The positioner is completely controlled overthe digital signal transmission implementedcomplying with PROFIBUS-PA Profile B asper DIN EN 50170 and DIN 19245 Part 4.
Data are transmitted as bit-synchronous cur-rent modulation at a rate of 31.25 kbit/sover twisted-pair cables conforming toIEC 61158-2.
Usually, the positioner settings are made ona computer which is connected to one ormore positioners linked over a segment cou-pler to the PROFIBUS segment of the com-puter..
The Configuration Manual KH 8384-4 con-tains a description on how to configureand operate the positioner overPROFIBUS-PA.
3.2.1 Configuration usingTROVIS-VIEW software
The positioner can be configured usingTROVIS-VIEW Configuration and OperatorInterface software.The positioner is equipped with an addi-tional digital SERIAL INTERFACE to connectthe RS-232 or USB port of the computer tothe positioner over an adapter cable.The TROVIS-VIEW software enables the userto easily set parameters in the positionerand view process parameters online.
Note: The TROVIS-VIEW software is a com-mon operator interface for various smartSAMSON devices. The software togetherwith a device-specific module allow the con-figuration and parameterization of the de-vice.The device-specific module for Type 3730-4can be downloaded free of charge from theSAMSON website (Services > Software >TROVIS-VIEW).Additional information on TROVIS-VIEW(e.g. system requirements) can found on theSAMSON website and in the Data SheetT 6661.

WARNING!Mount the positioner, keeping the followingsequence:1. Remove protective film from pneumatic
connections.2. Mount the positioner on the control valve3. Connect the supply air4. Connect the electrical power5. Perform the start-up settings
The connection of the electrical auxiliarypower may cause the actuator stem to move,depending on the operating mode.Do not touch the actuator stem or obstruct itto avoid risk of injury to hands or fingers.
5.1 Pneumatic connections
NOTICEFollow the instructions below to avoid dam-aging the positioner.– The threaded connections in the
positioner housing are not designed di-rect air connection.
– The screw glands must be screwed intothe connecting plate, the pressure gaugemounting block or the connection blockfrom the accessories.The air connections are optionally de-signed as a bore with ¼ NPT or G ¼thread.The customary fittings for metal and cop-per pipes or plastic hoses can be used.
– The supply air must be dry and free fromoil and dust.The maintenance instructions for upstre-am pressure reducing stations must be
observed.Blow through all air pipes and hoses tho-roughly prior to connecting them.
If the positioner is attached directly to theType 3277 Actuator, the connection of thepositioner's output pressure to the actuator isfixed. For attachment according toIEC 60534-6 (NAMUR), the signal pressurecan be routed to either the top or bottom di-aphragm chamber of the actuator, depend-ing on the actuator's fail-safe action"actuator stem extends" or "actuator stemretracts".For rotary actuators, the manufacturer'sspecifications for connection apply.
5.1.1 Signal pressure gauges
To monitor the supply air (Supply) and sig-nal pressure (Output), we recommend thatpressure gauges be attached (see accesso-ries in Tables 1 to 5).
5.1.2 Supply pressure
The required supply air pressure depends onthe bench range and the actuator's operat-ing direction (fail-safe action).The bench range is registered on the name-plate either as spring range or signal pres-sure range depending on the actuator. Thedirection of action is marked FA or FE, or bya symbol.
Actuator stem extends FA (AIR TO OPEN)
Fail-close (for globe and angle valves):
Required supply pressure = Upper benchrange value + 0.2 bar, minimum 1.4 bar.

WARNING!The actuator stem moves while the start-upsettings are being performed.Do not touch the actuator stem or obstruct itto avoid risk of injury to hands or fingers.
NOTICEPerform the start-up settings in the same se-quence as listed (section 7.1 to section 7.6).
Note: The positioner performs a test in thestart-up phase while following its automa-tion task at the same time. During thestart-up phase, operation on site is unre-stricted, yet write access is limited.
7.1 Defining the fail-safe position
To adapt the positioner to the operating di-rection of the actuator, set slide switch to AIRTO OPEN or AIR TO CLOSE .
4 AIR TO OPEN = Signal pressure opensthe valve, for fail-safe position: actuatorstem extends/fail close
4 AIR TO CLOSE = Signal pressure closesthe valve, for fail-safe position: actuatorstem retracts/fail open.
NOTICEThe AIR TO OPEN (AtO) setting always ap-plies to double-acting actuators.
For checking purposes:After successfully completing initialization,the positioner display should read 0 % whenthe valve is in the fail-safe position and
58 EB 8384-4 EN
Start-up – Settings
100 % when the valve is open. If this is notthe case, change the slide switch positionand re-initialize the positioner.
Note: The switch position is prompted priorto an initialization. After an initialization hasbeen completed, changing the switch posi-tion does not have any effect on the opera-tion of the positioner.The positioner only needs to be initializedagain after the fail-safe action of the actua-tor has been changed.
7.2 Setting the volume restrictionQ
The volume restriction Q is used to adapt theair delivery to the size of the actuator:
4 Actuators with a transit time < 1 s, e.g.linear actuators with an effective areasmaller than 240 cm², require a re-stricted air flow rate (MIN).
4 Actuators with a transit time ≥ 1 s do notrequire the air flow rate to be restricted(MAX).
The position of volume restriction Q also de-pends on how the signal pressure is routedat the actuator in SAMSON actuators:
4 The “SIDE“ position applies for actuatorswith a loading pressure connection at theside, e.g. Type 3271-5.
4 The “BACK“ position applies for actua-tors with a loading pressure connectionat the back, e.g. in Type 3277-5.
4 The “SIDE”restriction position always ap-plies for actuators from other manufac-turers.

7.6 Initialization
WARNING!During initialization, the control valve movesthrough its entire travel/angle of rotationrange. Therefore, do not start the initializa-tion procedure while a process is running,but only during start-up when all shut-offvalves are closed.
Before starting initialization, check the maxi-mum permissible signal pressure of the con-trol valve. During initialization, thepositioner issues an output signal pressureup to the maximum supply pressure sup-plied. If necessary, limit the signal pressureby connecting an upstream pressure reduc-ing valve.
NOTICEAfter the positioner has been mounted on toanother actuator or its mounting locationhas been changed and prior tore-initializing the positioner, the positionerneeds to be reset to its basic setting (defaultvalues). Refer to section 7.8.
During initialization the positioner adapts it-self optimally to the friction conditions andthe signal pressure demand of the controlvalve. The type and extent of self-adaptationdepends on the set initialization mode:
4 MAX maximum range (standard range)Initialization mode for simple start-up ofvalves with two clearly defined mechani-cal end positions, e.g. three-way valves(see section 7.6.1)
4 NOM nominal rangeInitialization mode for all globe valves(see section 7.6.2)
4 MAN manually selected rangeInitialization mode for globe valves withan unknown nominal range (see section7.6.3)
4 SUb substitute calibration (emergencymode)This mode allows a positioner to be re-placed while the plant is running, withthe least amount of disruption to theplant (see section 7.6.4)
Note: For normal operation, simply start ini-tialization by pressing the INIT key aftermounting the positioner on the valve anddefining the valve closed position and set-ting the volume restriction. The positioneronly needs to work with its default settings. Ifnecessary, perform a reset (see section 7.8).

The time required for an initialization pro-cess depends on the transit time of the actu-ator and take several minutes. After a suc-cessful initialization, the positioner runs inclosed-loop operation indicated by .A malfunctioning leads to the process beingcanceled. The initialization error appears onthe display according to how it has beenclassified by the condensed state. See sec-tion 8.3.
Note: When Code 48 - h0 = YES, the diag-nostics automatically start to plot the refer-ence graphs (drive signal steady-state d1and hysteresis d2) after initialization hasbeen completed.tESt d1 or tESt d2 appear on the display inan alternating sequence.An error during the plotting of the referencegraphs is indicated on the display overCode 48 - h1 and Code 81.The positioner still works properly, eventhough the reference graph plotting has notbeen completed successfully.
Valve closed position AIR TO CLOSE
If the slide switch is set to AIR TO CLOSE,the positioner automatically switches to thedirection of action increasing/decreasing(äæ) on successful completion of initializa-tion.This results in the following assignment be-tween set point and valve position:

Canceling an initalization process
The initialization procedure can be canceledwhile running by pressing the rotarypushbutton ( ). StOP appears three sec-onds long and the positioner then changesto the fail-safe position (SAFE).
Exit the fail-safe position again over Code 0(see section 8.2.2).

7.6.2 NOM – Initialization basedon nominal range
The calibrated sensor allows the effectivevalve travel to be set very accurately. Duringthe initialization process, the positionerchecks whether the control valve can movethrough the indicated nominal range (travelor angle) without collision.If this is the case, the indicated nominalrange is adopted with the limits oftravel/angle range start (Code 8) andtravel/angle range end (Code 9) as the op-erating range.
Note: The maximum possible travel must al-ways be greater than the nominal travel en-tered. If this is not the case, initialization isinterrupted (error alarm Code 52) becausethe nominal travel is not achieved.

7.6.4 SUb substitute calibration
A complete initialization procedure takesseveral minutes and requires the valve tomove through its entire travel range severaltimes. This initialization mode, however, isan emergency mode, in which the controlparameters are estimated and not deter-mined by an initialization procedure. As aresult, a high level of accuracy cannot beexpected. You should always select a differ-ent initialization mode if the plant allows it.
The SUb initialization mode is used to re-place a positioner while the process is run-ning. For this purpose, the control valve isusually fixed mechanically in a certain posi-tion, or pneumatically by means of a pres-sure signal which is routed to the actuatorexternally. The blocking position ensuresthat the plant continues to operate with thisvalve position.
By entering the blocking position (Code 35),closing direction (Code 34), pin position(Code 4), nominal range (Code 5) and di-rection of action (Code 7), the positionercan calculate the positioner configuration.
NOTICEPerform a reset before re-initializing thepositioner if the substitute positioner has al-ready been initialized. Refer to section 7.8.

9 Adjusting the limit switch
The positioner version with an inductive limitswitch has one adjustable tag (1) mountedon the shaft which operates the proximityswitch (3).
For operation of the inductive limit switch,the corresponding switching amplifier (seesection 5.2.1) must be connected to the out-put.
If the tag (1) is inside the field of the switch,the switch assumes a high resistance. If thetag is outside of the field, the switch assumesa low resistance.
Normally, the limit switch is adjusted suchthat it will provide a signal in both end posi-tions of the valve. The switch, however, canalso be adjusted to indicate intermediatevalve positions.
The desired switching function, i.e. whetherthe output relay shall be picked up or re-leased when the tag has entered the field,has to be determined, if necessary, at theswitching amplifier.
Setting the switching point:
NOTICEDuring adjustment or testing, the switchingpoint must always be approached frommid-position (50 %).
To ensure safe switching under any ambientconditions, the switching point should be ad-justed to a value of approx. 5 % before themechanical stop (OPEN – CLOSED).

The positioner does not require any mainte-nance.
There are filters with a 100 µm mesh size inthe pneumatic connections for supply andoutput which can be removed and cleaned,if required.
The maintenance instructions of any up-stream supply air pressure reducing stationsmust be observed.
11 Servicing explosion-protecteddevices
If a part of the device on which the explo-sion protection is based needs to be ser-viced, the device must not be put back intooperation until a qualified inspector has as-sessed it according to explosion protectionrequirements, has issued an inspection cer-tificate or given the device a mark of confor-mity.
Inspection by a qualified inspector is not re-quired if the manufacturer performs a rou-tine test on the device prior to putting it backinto operation. The passing of the routinetest must be documented by attaching amark of conformity to the device. Replaceexplosion-protected components only byoriginal, routine-tested components from themanufacturer.
Devices that have already been operatedoutside hazardous areas and are intendedfor future use inside hazardous areas mustcomply with the safety requirements placedon serviced devices. Before being used in-side hazardous areas, test the devices ac-cording to the specifications for servicingexplosion-protected devices.
Read section 13 for maintenance, calibra-tion and adjustment work inside and outsidehazardous areas.
12 Firmware update (serialinterface)
Firmware updates on positioners currently inoperation can be performed as follows:
When updates are performed by a serviceemployee appointed by SAMSON, the up-date is confirmed on the positioner by thetest mark assigned by SAMSON’s QualityAssurance.
In all other cases, only persons from theplant operator with written approval mayperform updates. This person must confirmthe update on the positioner.
Laptops and PCs connected to the powersupply must use an additional safety barrier.
This does not apply to laptops in battery op-eration. In this case, it is assumed that a bat-tery-powered laptop runs briefly for soft-ware programming or for testing purposes.
80 EB 8384-4 EN
Maintenance
a) Updates outside the hazardous area:
Remove the positioners from the plantand update them outside the hazardousarea.
b) Updates on site:
Updates on site are only permitted afterthe plant operator has presented a sig-ned hot work permit.
After updating has been completed, add thecurrent firmware to the nameplate; this canbe done using labels.
13 Maintenance, calibration andwork on equipment
The interconnection with intrinsically safecircuits to check or calibrate the apparatusmust only be performed with intrinsicallysafe current/voltage calibrators and mea-suring instruments to rule out any damageto components relevant for explosion pro-tection.
The maximum values for intrinsically safecircuits specified in the approvals must bekept.

Installation Manual for apparatus certified by CSA for use in hazardous locations. Communication is optionally either according to the FOUNDATION
TMFieldbus Specification or
according to PROFIBUS PA in compliance FISCO-Concept
The FISCO Concept allows interconnection of intrinsically safe apparatus to associated apparatus not specifically examined in
such combination. The criteria for interconnection is that the voltage (Vmax) the current (Imax) and the power (Pmax) which
intrinsically safe apparatus can receive and remain intrinsically safe, considering faults, must be equal or greater than the voltage
(V0C) the current (ISC) and the power (P0) levels which can be delivered by the associated apparatus, considering faults and
applicable factors. In addition, the maximum unprotected capacitance (Ci) and inductance (L i) of each apparatus (other than the
termination) connected to the fieldbus must be less than or equal to 5 nF and 10 µH respectively.
In each segment only one active device, normally the associated apparatus, is allowed to provide the necessary energy for the
fieldbus system The allowed voltage (V0C) of the associated apparatus is limited to the range of
14V DC. to 24V DC. All other equipment connected to the bus cable has to be passive, meaning that they are not allowed to
provide energy to the system, except to a leakage current of 50mA for each connected device. Separately powered equipment
needs a galvanic isolation to assure that the intrinsically safe fieldbus circuit remains passive.
The cable used to interconnect the devices need to have the parameters in the following range:
Loop resistance R‘: 15 ... 150 Ohm/km
Inductance per unit length L‘: 0,4 ... 1 mH/km
Capacitance per unit length C‘: 80 ... 200 nF/km
C‘ = C‘ line/line + 0,5 C‘ line/screen, if both lines are floating or, C‘ = C‘ line/line + C’line/screen, if the screen is connected to one line
Length of spur cable: ≤ 30 m
Length of trunk cable: ≤ 1 km
At each end of the trunk cable an approved infallible line termination with the following parameters is suitable:
R = 90 ... 100 Ohm C = 0 ... 2,2 µF
One of the allowed terminations might already be integrated in the associated apparatus.
The number of passive devices connected to the bus segment is not limited due to I.S. reasons. If the above rules are respected, the inductance and capacitance of the cable will not impair the intrinsic safety of the installation.
Notes:
1. Approved associated apparatus must be installed in accordance with manufacturer instructions
2. Approved associated apparatus must meet the following requirements:
Voc ≤≤≤≤ Vmax, Isc≤ Imax, Po ≤≤≤≤ Pmax
3. The maximum non-hazardous area voltage must not exceed 250 V.
4. The installation must be in accordance with the Canadian Electrical code Part 1.
5. Each set of wires must be provided with grounded shield. The shield must extend as close to the terminal(s) as possible and it must be grounded shield at I. S. Barrier ground.
6. Caution: Use only supply wires suitable for 5 °C above surrounding.
7. Warning: Substitution of components may impair intrinsic safety. PE = I. S. Ground
8. The polarity for connecting 11 and 12 is of no importance due to an internal rectifier.
9. FISCO concept applies to fieldbus / circuit only.
10. Entity parameters apply to circuit 2, 3 and 4 and further required to meet the following conditions:
Co ≥ Ci + Ccable; Lo ≥ Li + Lcable

Installation Manual for apparatus approved by FM for use in hazardous locations. Communication is optionally either according to the FOUNDATION
TMFieldbus Specification or
according to PROFIBUS PA in compliance FISCO-Concept
The FISCO Concept allows interconnection of intrinsically safe apparatus to associated apparatus not specifically examined in
such combination. The criteria for interconnection is that the voltage (Vmax/Ui) the current (Imax/I i) and the power (Pi) which
intrinsically safe apparatus can receive and remain intrinsically safe, considering faults, must be equal or greater than the voltage
(V0C/U0) the current (ISC/I0) and the power (P0) levels which can be delivered by the associated apparatus, considering faults
and applicable factors. In addition, the maximum unprotected capacitance (Ci) and inductance (L i) of each apparatus (other than
the termination) connected to the fieldbus must be less than or equal to 5 nF and 10 µH respectively.
In each segment only one active device, normally the associated apparatus, is allowed to provide the necessary energy for the
fieldbus system The allowed voltage (V0C /Uo) of the associated apparatus is limited to the range of 14V DC. to 24V DC. All
other equipment connected to the bus cable has to be passive, meaning that they are not allowed to provide energy to the system,
except to a leakage current of 50mA for each connected device. Separately powered equipment needs a galvanic isolation to
assure that the intrinsically safe fieldbus circuit remains passive.
The cable used to interconnect the devices need to have the parameters in the following range:
Loop resistance R‘: 15 ... 150 Ohm/km
Inductance per unit length L‘: 0,4 ... 1 mH/km
Capacitance per unit length C‘: 80 ... 200 nF/km
C‘ = C‘ line/line + 0,5 C‘ line/screen, if both lines are floating or, C‘ = C‘ line/line + C’line/screen, if the screen is connected to one line
Length of spur cable: ≤ 30 m
Length of trunk cable: ≤ 1 km
At each end of the trunk cable an approved infallible line termination with the following parameters is suitable:
R = 90 ... 100 Ohm C = 0 ... 2,2 µF
One of the allowed terminations might already be integrated in the associated apparatus.
The number of passive devices connected to the bus segment is not limited due to I.S. reasons. If the above rules are respected, the inductance and capacitance of the cable will not impair the intrinsic safety of the installation.
Notes:
1. Approved associated apparatus must be installed in accordance with manufacturer instructions
2. Approved associated apparatus must meet the following requirements:
Uo or Voc ≤≤≤≤ Ui or Vmax, Io or Isc≤ Ii or Imax, Po ≤≤≤≤ Pi or Pmax
3. The maximum non-hazardous area voltage must not exceed 250 V.
4. The installation must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 and
ANSI/ISA RP 12.06.01
5. Each set of wires must be provided with grounded shield. The shield must extend as close to the terminal(s) as possible and it must be grounded shield at I. S. Barrier ground.
6. Caution: Use only supply wires suitable for 5 °C above surrounding.
7. Warning: Substitution of components may impair intrinsic safety. PE = I. S. Ground
8. The polarity for connecting 11 and 12 is of no importance due to an internal rectifier.
9. FISCO concept applies to fieldbus / circuit only.
10. Entity parameters apply to circuit 2, 3 and 4 and further required to meet the following conditions:
Co ≥ Ci + Ccable; Lo ≥ Li + Lcable
