Schedule
 
EQUIPMENT:
Equipment and systems covered by this certificate are as follows:
 

The electropneumatic positioner type SITRANS VP300 (MLFB 6DR63x0-xEAx0-0AA0) is intended for the continuous regulation of process valves with pneumatic drives. It is a field device with an integrated microcontroller. The positioner consists of the following components:

  • enclosure with cover- printed circuit board wit appropriate electronics with or without HART communication
  • position sensor for a contactless position detection
  • connection field with screw-type terminals
  • pneumatic valve block with piezo pilot control 

The equipment is intended for the use in explosive hazardous areas of zone 1 or zone 2. 

The permissible ambient temperature range in dependence of the temperature class has to be taken from the following table: 

temperature class

permissible ambient temperature range

T4

-40 °C … +80 °C

T6

-40 °C … +50 °C
