AUMA Generation .2 - New electric multi-turn actuators and actuator


AUMA actuators and actuator controls are widely used in process plants throughout the world. Their highly developed technology and proven reliability guarantee accurate long-term performance in a wide variety of applications. Generation .2 represents a significant development for the increasing demands in process plants within the oil and gas industry. The modular structure provides the perfect combination of multi-turn actuators and appropriate actuator controls. Using standardised components, a customised solution can be developed for valve applications.

Anticipating the needs of tomorrow


Generation .2 is compatible with previous AUMA versions. The actuator controls and multi-turn actuators of different generations can be combined. This ensures low-risk investments and guarantees that we will always be at the forefront of technological development.

Easy operation

All operation and configuration options are presented on a large and easy-to-read display. User-friendly and multi-lingual menu navigation. Operation via local controls or wireless connection using PDA/laptop via AUMA ToolSuite.

Advanced diagnostic - avoiding down times


Permanent recording and analysis of all effective factors such as torque, temperature and vibration are possible. Deviations from specifications and limit excesses are recorded. The plant operator receives information about any situation which could lead to failures. This allows action to be taken thereby reducing down times. All events and signals are classified according to NAMUR guidelines. Settings, operation processes and faults are recorded in a time-stamped event record which can be displayed whenever required.

Easy device integration


In parallel communication, up to 10 digital inputs and up to 12 output contacts offer a comprehensive interface to the DCS. The ACExC offers interfaces to all conventional fieldbus systems, including Profibus DP-V2, and supports the concepts for smooth device integration into the DCS, such as e.g. FDT/DTM.

Enhanced applications

controls
Improved handling and operation
The user friendliness for Generation .2 actuators was enhanced.

The improved AUMA handwheel activation allows single-handed handwheel operation and valve position adjustment by applying minimal force. Activation of manual operation can be signalled to the control room. The AUMA motor plug/socket connection is now available throughout the complete Generation .2 series. One single adjustable reduction gearing set within the control unit for all conventional stroke ranges

Precision and control accuracy


An improved mechanical structure and reduced mechanical tolerances have led to improved control accuracy and extend the output speed range for modulating actuators.

Permanent reliability
Material selection, design and new manufacturing methods as well as the further enhanced corrosion protection ensure longer service life.

Flexibility and adaptation


The valve attachment for Generation .2 - implemented as standardised hollow shaft plug sleeve solution - allows flexible adaptation to the valve.

Safety
Support of plant specific safety concepts. Redundant fieldbus sub-assemblies and/or combined interfaces with parallel and fieldbus communication increase fail safe reliability. In cases of emergency, actuators can be positioned into predefined safety position via emergency inputs.

Approvals
AUMA actuators are approved for worldwide application in hazardous areas. They have been awarded with the approval of the leading oil and gas companies for use in their plants.

The environmental conditions in the oil and gas industry are extreme. Salt-laden air in offshore applications, aggressive atmospheres in refineries or rough operation - AUMA devices must operate reliably over many years without major maintenance requirements under all conditions. For this reason, AUMA has focussed on making AUMA devices resistant to the most unfavourable conditions and has adapted protective measures to the state-of-the-art technology.

Ambient temperatures
AUMA actuators are used in both hot and cold environments. Adapted versions with large temperature ranges are available to suit various ambient temperatures. Furthermore, the approved temperature ranges vary from one certification area to another. Refer to page 48 for detailed information.

Enclosure protection IP 68
AUMA devices of Generation .2 are supplied with improved enclosure protection IP 68 in compliance with EN 60529. IP 68 means protection against submersion up to 8 m head of water for minimum 96 hours. During submersion, up to 10 operations are permissible. In order to guarantee enclosure protection IP 68, suitable cable glands must be used. They are not part of the standard supply, but can be provided by AUMA on request.

Corrosion protection
AUMA corrosion protection is outstanding in the world of actuators. Based on chemical preliminary treatment with subsequent double-layer powder coating of individual parts, the standard corrosion protection already efficiently protects against corrosion even under the most unfavourable conditions while providing high mechanical resistance. In compliance with the corrosivity categories according to EN ISO 12944-2, various AUMA corrosion protection levels are provided to suit the different applications.

Colour
The standard colour is silver-grey (similar to RAL 7037). Other colours are possible on request.

AUMA Corrosion Classication of environments according to EN ISO12944-2 protection Atmospheric-corrosivity categories class C1 (very low): Heated buildings with clean atmosphere C2 (low): Unheated rooms and rural areas with low level of pollution C3 (medium): Production rooms with humidity and moderate pollution.

Fireproof actuators (option) Fire


In case of fire, AUMA fireproof actuators can contribute a gr great deal to limiting the risks. The functionality, applicati possibilities, operation and user friendliness are cation com comparable to non-fireproof actuators. T The special coating applied to these actuators renders the devices completely operational during minimum m 30 minutes at a temperature up to 1,100 C. Within this peri of time, the corresponding valve can still be operperiod ated ated. A As an alternative, the actuators can be installed in fireproo boxes. proof

Open-close and modulating duty


Valves are subdivided in shut-off valves and modulating valves.

Multi-turn actuators for open-close duty


The type designation for AUMA multi-turn actuators for open-close duty is SAEx:

In general, shut-off valves are either open or closed. They are rarely operated; when operated, they cover the complete stroke. The interval between two travels can amount to minutes or even to months. They are controlled by means of the binary signals OPEN and CLOSE. This type of duty is classified as open-close duty. Modulating valves are used to set a default variable being constantly verified and adjusted at short intervals. Control takes place by means of a continuous setpoint, e.g. a 0/4 20 mA signal. The time interval between two travels is a matter of seconds. This type of duty is classified as modulating duty.

SAEx 07.2 SAEx 16.2 SAEx 25.1 SAEx 40.1

Multi-turn actuators for modulating duty


The type designation for AUMA multi-turn actuators for modulating duty is SAREx:

SAREx 07.2 SAREx 16.2 SAREx 25.1 SAREx 30.1

Number of starts and motor duty types


Modulating duty and open-close duty subject the actuator to different mechanical loads. Accordingly, there are suitable actuators for all types of duty. The types of duty in compliance with IEC 60034-1 and EN 15714-2 are typical distinction criteria. For modulating actuators, the permissible number of starts is indicated in addition (please also refer to page 43).

Basics - Main functions of actuators


[1]

[1] OPEN - CLOSE control This is the most basic type of control. Due to the fact that during normal operation only the states OPEN and CLOSED are relevant, the discrete commands Run OPEN and Run CLOSE as well as the feedback signals End position OPEN and End position CLOSED are usually sufficient. Tripping depends on the selected type of seating.

10 |

Switching off in the end positions


Irrespective of whether the actuator is operated in open-close or modulating duty, the device must automatically switch off when reaching an end position. Two different switch-off mechanisms are available and are applied depending on the type of valve.

Protective functions
Overload protection for the valve
If an excessive torque is applied during travel, e.g. due to a trapped object or deposits within the valve, the controls switch off the actuator to protect the valve.

Limit seating As soon as the preset switching point in one end position is reached, the controls automatically switch off the actuator. Torque seating As soon as the preset torque is applied at the valve end position, the controls automatically switch off the actuator. For actuators without integral controls, the type of seating must be programmed in the external unit. For actuators with AMExC or ACExC integral controls, the type of seating is selected at the actuator and may even differ for the two end positions.

Thermal motor protection


PTC thermistors or thermoswitches (as an option) in the motor winding trip as soon as the motor temperature exceeds 140 C. Embedded within the controls, they optimally protect the motor winding against overheating. PTC thermistors or thermoswitches offer better protection than thermal overload relays, since the temperature rise is measured within the motor winding.

[2]

[2] Setpoint control The controls receive a position setpoint from the host DCS, e.g. as 0/4 20 mA signal. The integral positioner compares this value with the current valve position and controls the actuator motor as required until the offset value comes close to zero. The valve position is usually transmitted to the DCS.

Basics - Controls concepts


In principle, AUMA actuators may be integrated within any automation system. The state-of-the-art solution is to equip the actuator with integral controls to eliminate the time-consuming and costly engineering, installation and documentation for external controls. A further benefit in favour of integral controls is the easy commissioning.

External controls
For this controls concept, actuators contain no or only few electronic components. All actuator signals, limit switch signals, torque switch signals, motor protection or valve position are centrally processed in an external PLC. During programming, care must been taken to consider the required protective mechanisms and to minimise delay time. The switchgear for motor control is installed within a control cabinet and wired accordingly to the actuator. If local controls are required, they have to be installed and programmed accordingly within the PLC. In this configuration, AUMA actuators are designated as AUMA NORM.

12 |

[1]

Integral controls
Actuators with integral controls are immediately ready for use. The controls are perfectly adapted to the actuator. As soon as the power supply has been established, the actuator can be operated via the operating elements on the local controls. The actuator can be completely set on site, without requiring direct connection to the DCS. Only operation commands and feedback signals are still exchanged between the control system and the actuator. Motor switching is performed within the device and without delay. AUMA actuators can be supplied with AMExC or ACExC integral controls. Distinction between both is made in their functional features.

Fieldbus
By using a single data transmission medium for all signals from many devices, the structure of fieldbus systems can be kept very clear and simple. While the control cabinet of commonly used systems is filled with input and output sub-assemblies, the fieldbus only requires a single interface. Digitization of all data made it possible to extend functionality. This includes the field device setting via the DCS or request for all device data from the control room. AUMA actuators with integral actuator controls are available with interfaces to all common fieldbus systems within process automation.

| 13

Integration within the DCS - AMExC and ACExC actuator controls


The integral controls evaluate the actuator signals and operation commands and automatically perform the required switching procedures without delay, using the installed switchgear, reversing contactors or thyristors. After analysis, the controls supply the actuator signals as feedback signals to the host level. The integral controls allow for local actuator operation. AMExC and ACExC controls are compatible with other AUMA actuator series. From the DCS point of view, a homogenous appearance is created for different valve and actuator types. Please refer to page 47 for a detailed overview of the controls functions.

AMExC 01.1
The AMExC controls with their simple logic are the ideal solution wherever the requirement is limited to opening or closing valves, wherever conventional parallel signal transmission is used and data exchange is reduced to the absolute minimum. At the time of commissioning, only a small number of parameters are defined via DIP switches, e.g. the type of seating. Actuator control is made via operation commands OPEN, STOP, CLOSE. Reaching an end position and a collective fault signal are reported back to the DCS as feedback signals. These signals are visually displayed at the local controls via the indication lights. As an option, the valve position can be transmitted as 0/4 20 mA signal to the DCS. Further options include a 3-point positioner allowing actuator control via the 0/4 20 mA signal and a simple Profibus DP or Modbus RTU interface.

14 |

ACExC 01.2
ACExC controls are the perfect solution if the application requires self-adapting control functions, data logging, configurable user interface or if valve and actuator are to be implemented into a Plant Asset Management System by advanced diagnostic functions. ACExC controls are equipped with a large and freely programmable parallel interface and/or interfaces to established fieldbus systems within process automation, including Profibus DP-V2. The diagnostic functions comprise a time-stamped event report, torque characteristics logging, continuous recording of temperatures and vibration within the actuator and, furthermore, counting the number of starts and motor running times. Further to the basic functions, they offer a number of options to meet special demands. These include torque bypass to unseat valves if tightly seated, functions for modifying operating times or special control functions, e.g. for direct positioning of multiport valve outputs. With the development of the ACExC 01.2, particular emphasis was laid on user-friendliness and the ease of integration of actuators into the DCS. The large graphic display is used to perform menu-controlled programming of the controls, optionally using the AUMA ToolSuite via wireless Bluetooth connection. For fieldbus connections, ACExC programming can be performed from the control room.

Operation and clarity


Modern actuators can be adapted to special application requirements by a multitude of parameters. Monitoring and diagnostic functions generate signals and collect operating parameters. For actuators with AMExC integral controls, the programming possibilities and the number of signals are limited. Accessing the considerably more detailed ACExC data is facilitated by the clearly structured and intuitive user interface. The display structure is user-friendly, in plain text and available in a large number of languages.

Password protection
The ACExC password protection is an important safety feature. Especially if devices are freely accessible, nonauthorised persons are not able to perform any modifications. [1] Backlit display The graphic display shows texts and graphic elements as well as characteristics. The display is permanently lit; during use the backlight shines brighter. [2] Indication lights Visual actuator signals via indication lights can be programmed. Signals, which are required to be recognisable from a long distance, can be assigned accordingly. The default factory signal setting is: End position CLOSED (yellow), end position OPEN (green), torque fault OPEN, torque fault CLOSE and motor protection tripped (all red).

Signals classified in compliance with NAMUR


During operation, the plant operators may be confused to receive device-specific signals. For this purpose, ACExC status signals are classified in compliance with NAMUR recommendation NE 107. Refer also to page 39.

[3] Selecting the control mode The selector switch LOCAL - OFF - REMOTE is used to define whether the actuator is operated from remote or via the local controls. In OFF position, hold down the RESET button for a few seconds to enter the programming menu. [4] Operation and programming Depending on the selector switch position, the push buttons enable either electric actuator operation, status signals requests or menu navigation. [5] Displaying the valve position The large display allows the operator to read the valve position even from a long distance. [6] Displaying operation commands/setpoints Operation commands and setpoints emitted from the DCS can be displayed.

[7] Diagnostic/monitoring displays Actuator operation is subjected to special basic conditions. They are permanently monitored. When exceeding permissible limits e.g. temperature, the ACExC generates a warning signal. Exact values can be requested via the display. [8] Main menu The main menu allows actuator data requests and operation parameter modifications. [9] Non-intrusive setting If the actuator is equipped with an electronic control unit, the end positions and tripping torques can be set using the display without opening the device housing or using setting tools. [10] Failure In case of failure, the colour of the display colour changes to red. The cause for failure can be requested via the display.

| 17

For actuators with AMExC or ACExC integral controls, all settings can be directly performed at the actuator. If the actuator is equipped with an electronic control unit and an ACExC, settings are made via the display, without opening the housing. Alternatively, actuators with ACExC can be configured via the AUMA ToolSuite Commissioning and Diagnostic Tool (CDT). This tool allows clearer presentation of parameters and actuator data. Furthermore, it converts a PDA or a laptop to a remote control for the actuator.

Wireless connection
Connection between actuator and programming device is based on Bluetooth standard, supported by most laptops or PDAs. The connection is password-protected to exclude any unauthorised access. The addressed actuator indicates the access via a blue indication light. The device can be clearly identified due to the works number or a customer-specific name assignment.

AUMA ToolSuite for testing the Fieldbus interface AUMA ToolSuite database
Actuator data can be archived in the AUMA ToolSuite database. This supports, for example, an available Plant Asset Management System. If an ACExC has to be replaced, all database parameters can be uploaded to the replacement device, thus quickly restoring the previous functionality. The AUMA ToolSuite is used to test correct functioning of the fieldbus interface within the actuator. From the actuator point of view and for the duration of the test phase, the laptop equipped with the AUMA ToolSuite will take over the master function.

AUMA ToolSuite diagnostic tool


AUMA ToolSuite is the ideal tool to analyse the timestamped ACExC event report or to compare torque characteristics taken at different points in time. This allows reliable comparisons of previous operations of actuator and valve.

Although the mechanical interfaces between actuators and valves have been standardised for many decades and are stable, there are a multitude of different interfaces to the DCS. In spite of efforts for standardisation, communication technology is subject to constant improvement due to continuous developments within the electronics sector. Due to the modular product range, AUMA are in a position to offer an interface for any system, from the AUMA NORM actuator without integral controls to the actuator with ACExC controls, programmable from the control room via fieldbus. Furthermore, the AUMA modularity makes it possible to upgrade AUMA actuators to a new DCS.

Parallel signal transmission to the DCS AMExC


For the AMExC, all input and outputs are hard wired. Please refer to the terminal plan for respective assignment.

Three binary inputs for the control commands OPEN, STOP, CLOSE Five binary outputs with the following assignments: End position CLOSED, end position OPEN, selector switch in REMOTE, selector switch in LOCAL, collective fault signal Alternatively to the control inputs, an analogue 0/4 20 mA input for positioner control As an option, an analogue 0/4 20 mA output for remote position indication. The binary inputs and outputs are potential-free, the analogue output is galvanically isolated.

Communication - Tailor-made interfaces

Parallel signal transmission to the DCS ACExC


The ACExC offers a large number of feedback signals. The plant operator decides which signals are to be transmitted. Assignment of outputs and inputs, if available, can be modified at a later date with the ACExC device setting. Depending on the version, the ACExC provides:

Serial communication
From the fieldbus point of view, the ACExC is state-ofthe-art. AUMA permanently keep track on further developments of fieldbus protocols and consequently implements all elements of vital importance for the valve automation applications. One key advantage is that the ACExC is fully upgradable and can thus be adapted to new developments. Controls are available with the following fieldbus interfaces:
AMExC Probus DP Probus DP-V1 and DP-V2 Modbus RTU Foundation Fieldbus ACExC

Up to ten binary inputs e.g. operation commands OPEN, STOP, CLOSE; intermediate position control; release signals for the local controls, emergency commands, etc. Up to twelve binary outputs e.g. for feedback of end position, intermediate positions, selector switch position, failures, etc. Up to two analogue inputs (0/4 20 mA) e.g. setpoint for controlling the positioner Up to two analogue outputs (0/4 20 mA) e.g. for feedback of valve position or torque The binary inputs and outputs are potential-free, the analogue outputs are galvanically isolated.

Fieldbus interfaces can be combined within a device equipped with parallel interfaces. For further information on fieldbus systems, please refer to the following pages.

[3]

[1]

ACExC as fieldbus data transmitter As an option, an ACExC with fieldbus interface can be supplied with four binary and/or two analogue inputs [1]. They are used to connect conventional sensors [2] to the ACExC. The ACExC processes the sensor data for transmission via the fieldbus [3].

Profibus
Profibus offers a complete family of fieldbus versions; Profibus PA for process automation, Profinet for data transmission on Ethernet and Profibus DP for automating plants and machines. Due to its simple and robust physical layer (RS-485) and the different service levels DP-V0 (fast cyclic and deterministic data exchange), DP-V1 (acyclic access to device parameters and diagnostic data) as well as DP-V2 (further functions such as time stamp or redundancy), Profibus DP is the ideal solution for plant automation.

Modbus
Modbus is a comparatively simple but multi-functional fieldbus protocol. It offers all services required for plant automation (e.g. exchange of simple, binary information, analogue values, device parameters or diagnostic data). For plant automation, the simple and robust physical layer RS-485 is often used. On the basis of this physical layer, Modbus supports various telegram formats (e.g. Modbus RTU or Modbus ASCII). Using the Modbus TCP/IP version based on Ethernet, the vertical integration into a host automation system is simplified.

International standard (www.profibus.com) Worldwide availability Large number of units installed Standardised integration within the DCS (FDT, EDD) Large selection of devices

International standard (www.modbus.org) Simple protocol Widely implemented Largely sufficient for many simple automation tasks

Communication - Fieldbus

For Profibus DP and Modbus RTU, the basic topology is the line/tree structure via RS-485.

AUMA actuators and Profibus DP Supports Profibus DP-V0, DP-V1 and DP-V2 High speed data exchange (up to 1.5 Mbit/s - corresponds to approx. 0.3 ms/actuator) Integration within the DCS via FDT or EDD Cable length up to approx. 10 km (without repeater up to 1,200 m) Up to 126 devices can be connected Redundant line topology as an option Additional parallel communication to safety PLC as an option

AUMA actuators and Modbus RTU Fast data exchange (up to 115.2 kbit/s - corresponds to approx. 30 ms/actuator) Cable length up to approx. 10 km (without repeater up to 1,200 m) Up to 247 devices can be connected Redundant line topology as an option Additional parallel communication to safety PLC as an option

Foundation Fieldbus
The basic idea behind Foundation Fieldbus (FF) is to quit the classic master - slave concept and to distribute the tasks within the automation system to the components involved. For this reason, Foundation Fieldbus is more than a conventional fieldbus system. This leads to the following consequences:

Wireless
Radio transmission is based on wireless communication standard IEEE 802.15.4 (ISM band). Communication provides a coding to protect the data transfer and parameterization of field devices against unauthorised modification. The network organises itself (mesh network). Simply enter a network ID to add a field device to an existing network; the topology will organise itself automatically. If participants are separated in space, even larger distances can be covered as the intermediate participants act as repeaters. If one participant fails as transmission medium, transmission is automatically established via another participant.

Information is no longer bidirectionally exchanged between field device and master: all information is generally available to all participants. There is no longer a central master processing the fieldbus data The schedule of the bus communication is controlled by the "Link Active Scheduler" (LAS) ensuring structured fieldbus communication. Integration within the DCS via standardised function blocks

AUMA actuators and Foundation Fieldbus AUMA actuators support the FF-H1 version Data exchange at 31.25 kbit/s, typical cycle times 500 ms 2s, depending on the number of devices Cable length up to approx. 9.5 km (without repeater up to 1,900 m) Up to 240 devices can be connected HSE bus: Connection to DCS Linking device: Connection HSE - H1 bus Junction box: Signal amplification, allows branching

AUMA as system integrator


AUMA not only possesses the expertise to manufacture actuators but also has the ability to perfectly integrate actuators into any automation environment. For this, the SIMA Master Station is a key element. The SIMA Master Station works with open fieldbus protocols such as Profibus DP or Modbus RTU.

[1] SIMA Master Station The SIMA MS is based on standardised industrial computer components and has been expanded by the required fieldbus interfaces. The entire hardware is integrated in a solid 19" industrial housing with EMC protection. The SIMA MS is available both with or without touchscreen. [2] Communication For the communication with field devices, SIMA MS supports standardised fieldbus protocols such as Profibus DP or Modbus RTU. The cable types specified in the fieldbus standards are used as transmission medium. Up to 32 devices can be connected to a single bus segment; when using repeaters, up to 247 devices are possible. Communication with the decentralised control system is also performed according to above mentioned standards; in addition, Ethernet or customised RS-232 solutions can also be used.

SIMA MS as commissioning system allows for independent commissioning of the connected actuator network. SIMA MS as network manager controls the communication to the field devices, including redundant data channels. SIMA MS as data concentrator facilitates data access of the connected actuators. Data transmission to the control room only comprises information required for regular operation. In the event of failures, the SIMA MS as diagnostic tool supports fast fault identification and remedy. SIMA MS as a protocol converter is used to adapt the actuator network to the available interfaces of the DCS.

Redundancy SIMA supports various redundancy concepts. Both redundancy to the AUMA field devices and/or to the DCS and also SIMA master redundancy are possible. In case of loss of communication or master failure, automatic change-over to the redundant component will be performed. [4] AUMA actuators The SIMA is designed for the control of AUMA actuators. Communication is performed according to standardised fieldbus protocols such as Profibus DP or Modbus RTU.

Covering large distances


Redundant Modbus RTU loop
With the SIMA Master Station, AUMA offers the ideal solution to cover large distances - this might occur for tank farms - with simultaneous data channel redundancy.

[1] Multi-turn actuator AUMA NORM The basic AUMA NORM actuator consists of the following components: motor, worm gearing, control unit, handwheel for emergency operation, electrical connection and valve attachment. For normal operation, AUMA NORM actuators require external controls with switchgear and appropriate logic. Usually, the NORM actuator is supplied with integral controls AMExC or ACExC. Due to the modular design principle, the controls are connected to the actuator via a simple plug/socket connection.

[3] Control unit Determining the valve position and setting the protect valve end positions/torque recording to prot t ect the customer valve against overload. Depending on custo o mer specification, a control unit is installed eithe er as eleceither tromechnical or electronic version. [3a] Control unit - electromechanical version reco orded; Travel and torque are mechanically recorded; microswitches are operated when reaching the tripping points. The tripping points for both end positions and the tripping torques for both direc ctions are directions mechanically set. As an option, the valve position can be transmitted as continuous signal to the control room m. room. [3b] Control unit - electronic version eplace High-resolution magnetic transmitters re replace the switching units; they are analysed with the ACExC controls. Valve settings are made via the control panel without opening the housing. Valve position and torque are transmitted as continuous signal. The electronic control unit requires the use of ACExC integral controls. For further information, please refer to pages 34 and 42.

[2] Motor 3-phase AC and 1-phase AC motors with high starting torques, developed especially for valve automation. Thermal protection is ensured by PTC thermistors of thermoswitches. A dog coupling for torque transmission and an internal motor plug/socket connector allow for fast replacement in the event of service requirement.

Refer also to page 43.

[4] Diagnostics (option) ctuator Continuous recording of torque curve, a actuator operating time, number of starts, vibration a s well as as gearbox and motor temperatures. This da a ta with data time stamp is saved and analysed within the e ACExC and forms the basis for advanced diagnostic cs and a diagnostics preventive maintenance schedule (please als so refer also to page 38).

28 |

[7] Integral controls (option) Contrary to the NORM version, actuators equipped with AMExC or ACExC integral controls are immediately ready for operation. The integral controls contain switchgear units, power supply unit, interface to the DCS and the ability to process control commands and actuator feedback signals. The actuator is operated on site via the local controls. The electrical connection between integral controls and actuator is made by using a quick release plug/socket connector. For further information on controls, please refer to pages 14 and 45. [7a] AMExC Controls comprising easy logic to process limit and torque signals as well as the control commands OPEN, STOP, CLOSE. Three indication lights at the local controls indicate the actuator status.

[8] Switchgear As standard, reversing contactors are used for power switching. If modulating actuators are expected to perform a high number of starts, we recommend using thyristor units not subject to wear (also refer to page 46).

[7b] ACExC Microprocessor based controls with comprehensive functionality and configurable interface. A graphic display indicates the actuator status in more than 30 language options. When combined with the electronic control unit, all settings can be performed without opening the housing. The programming via menu navigation is made directly at the device or wireless via Bluetooth with the AUMA ToolSuite. ACExC controls are ideal for the challenging actuator integration into complex control systems. Supports Plant Asset Management.

[9] Electrical plug/socket connection Identical principle for all configurations, whether with or without integral controls. During maintenance work, the wiring remains undisturbed; electrical connections can be quickly removed and reconnected. This reduces down times and avoids wiring faults when reconnecting. All electrical connections are double sealed, i.e. there is an additional sealing between terminal compartment and the interior of the controls [9b] (refer also to pages 32 and 44).

Electronic control unit


The electronic control unit and the ACExC controls allow for end position and tripping torque setting via the local controls of the ACExC - without opening the housing. [7] Absolute encoder - Limit The position of four gear stages represents the current valve position. Limit sensing is done mechanically and even functions in the event of power failure. Thus, battery back up is not required. [7] Absolute encoder - Torque The procedure is the same as for the limit sensing, with the difference that one gear stage is sufficient. [8] Electronic recording Hall sensors permanently sense the gear stage positions of limit and torque recording. The electronics generates a continuous limit or torque signal. End position and torque settings are saved in the electronics. When replacing the ACExC controls, these settings still be retained. [9] Heater The heater minimises condensation within the switch compartment (also refer to page 45).

Particular conditions - Local adaptations possible!


One of the many advantages of a modular design is the ease at which site upgrade can be achieved.

Customisation of device positioning


The optimum positioning is easily adjustable thus avoiding that the display is upside down, inaccessible operation elements, awkward cable gland alignments, etc. The correct position can easily be chosen. The following positioning adjustments at 90 increments are possible: controls to actuator, local controls to controls as well as the electrical plug/socket connector. The plug/socket connections allow easy on-site adjustment of the mounting position.

Wall bracket
If the actuator is difficult to access or in case of significant vibration or even high ambient temperatures at the place of valve installation, the controls with the operational elements can be mounted separately from the actuator on a wall bracket. The cable length between actuator and controls may be up to 100 m. Wall bracket retrofitting is possible at any later date.

36 |

AUMA actuators comply with global safety standards. For this purpose, they provide the following protective functions.

Failure behaviour in case of signal loss or in emergency


If a signal required for operation fails or if an emergency signal is activated, the actuator proceeds with a failure behaviour, previously defined. Deactivation of protective actuator mechanisms is possible if such a situation occurs.

Correction of the direction of rotation


The automatic correction of the direction of rotation upon wrong phase sequence is an integral feature of the controls. If the phases are exchanged when connecting the three-phase supply, the actuator still travels in the correct direction when receiving the respective operation command.

Protection tube for rising valve stem


The protection tube, available as an option, encloses a rising valve stem, thus protecting the stem against contamination and the plant operators against injury.

Valve overload protection


The controls switch off the actuator if inappropriate and excessive torque is applied during travel.

Handwheel extension
For actuators difficult to approach, e.g. shaft installation, the handwheel access is extremely difficult. In these cases, the AUMA handwheel extension makes manual operation much easier.

Locking manual to motor operation


Handwheel and motor drives cannot be simultaneously engaged. Not even under fault conditions. Motor operation is predominant. Even handwheel activation while the motor is running does not cause any problems.

Fireproof actuators and SIL


For information on fireproof actuators and SIL, please refer to pages 9 or 50.

Password protection for ACExC device parameters


Device parameters may only be changed after password entry.

Protected Bluetooth connection with ACExC


Password entry is required to establish a connection between a laptop or PDA and an actuator with ACExC integral controls.

Prevention, service life, maintenance - Complete with test engineering


The user of an actuator expects the fulfilment of three main features: long service life, long maintenance intervals and maintainability. These characteristics are important contributions to the plant operating costs and must therefore be closely monitored by the plant operator. With the development of the SAEx .2 multi-turn actuators and the ACExC .2 actuator controls, the main focus consisted in the integration of advanced self-monitoring and diagnostic abilities, to allow the operator to perform targeted maintenance routines.

Self-monitoring - avoiding failures


Self-monitoring enables the actuators to provide information about their own states, exceeding by far conventional fault signals. The operator is advised on time about any potential problems, for example with the NAMUR classified signal Out of specification. This signal indicates that the actuator is operated outside specified operation conditions which could lead to a subsequent failure. Thus, action as required can be taken in time to avoid any failure.

Diagnostic information available eliminating the problem


Whereas the operator is only provided with simple NAMUR signals, the actuator supplies detailed diagnostic information to the service technician, either via the display or via the AUMA ToolSuite. Thus, the origin for a Maintenance required indication can be identified and appropriate actions can be taken.

38 |

[1] Failure Due to functionality failures within the actuator or the peripherals, the actuator might not be controlled from the control room. [2] Function check Due to ongoing work on the actuator, the device cannot be controlled from the control room at that specific time. [3] Out of specification Deviations from the permissible application conditions determined by the actuator itself through self-monitoring. The actuator can still be controlled from the control room. [4] Maintenance required The actuator can still be controlled from the control room. The device must be inspected by a device specialist to avoid any unscheduled downtime.

Application in accordance with NAMUR NE 107 The aim of this recommendation is to achieve a uniform and simple communication vehicle between the devices and the plant operator. Actuators classify internal status signals in compliance with the NAMUR recommendation. Exact diagnosis is performed when evaluating the device data.

features
Monitoring the life cycle factors
Apart from the valve torque requirement and the operating cycles as standard recorded factors, device temperatures are further decisive factors for the device life cycle. As an option, the actuators can be equipped with sensors continuously monitoring motor temperature, gearing temperature, electronics environmental temperature as well as vibration.

Torque characteristics
The ACExC is capable of recording torque characteristics at different times. When comparing a current characteristic and a reference characteristic, conclusions can be drawn on the valve states.

Plant Asset Management


Due to extensive diagnostic features and the classification of status signals in compliance with NAMUR, AUMA actuators with ACExC .2 integral controls meet the requirements for integration into such systems.

Time-stamped event report/ operating data logging


Setting procedures, switching procedures, warning signals, failures and running times are recorded within the time-stamped event report. The event report is a distinct component of the diagnostic feature of the ACExC.

SIL Functional safety
Risk reduction in plants and installations with a high hazard potential requires modern safety technology. A consistent safety concept from the sensor via the controls right through to the actuator is required. International standards regarding Functional Safety are of major importance when specifying systems in compliance with safetyrelated aspects. Consultants, plant operators and manufacturers will have to consider IEC 61508, IEC 61511 and IEC 62061, as well as other relevant standards. These standards allow the assessment of safety-related systems regarding reliability and availability. The objective is hazard reduction for people, environment or material in processes/plants. Therefore, the end user will increasingly demand a risk evaluation according to IEC 61508, 61511. This evaluation must be performed by the planning engineer/plant manufacturer. Determination of failure probability is one of the major characteristics for SIL classification. Furthermore, they are weighted with further characteristics, such as the interval between two proof tests.

Classification of AUMA actuators


The following table illustrates the figures for selected AUMA actuators.

Figure Safety function safe DD DU DCD MTBF SFF T[proof] = 1 year T[proof] = 2 years T[proof] = 5 years SIL capability

Safety Integrity Level (SIL)


IEC 61508 defines 4 safety integrity levels. Depending on the risk/requirement, one of the four Safety Integrity Levels is required for the safety-related system. A specific failure rate is assigned to each level. SIL 4 represents the highest level, SIL 1 the lowest level. It has to be considered that the Safety Integrity Level is a feature of the Safety Instrumented System (SIS) and not the characteristic of one single component. In general, a safety instrumented system includes the following components:

Please contact us for further SIL figures of other actuator types.

Improvement of SIL capability


Regular function tests, for actuators the so-called partial valve stroke tests (PVST), and/or the use of actuators in redundant configuration (1oo2) can reduce the failure probability of a safety instrumented system and, depending on the version, SIL 3 may be achieved.

Sensor Controls (safety PLC) Actuator Valve

Figures
Safety-related figures are determined for individual devices. They are used to assign the SIL capability to the components. The final classification of the Safety Instrumented System (SIS) can only be made after assessing the safety-related figures of all components. Safety-related figures are mostly determined on the basis of generic data. This data (statistical failure values for individual components) is listed in special databases (SIEMENS, MIL, EXIDA, etc.). Only minor generic data is available for mechanical components. For determination of the figures, AUMA evaluates field feedback data and test results.

EU Directives
Declaration of Incorporation in compliance with the Machinery Directive and Declaration of Conformity according to the Low Voltage, ATEX and EMC Directives
According to the Machinery Directive, AUMA actuators and actuator controls are considered as partly completed machinery. This means that a Declaration of Conformity in accordance with this Directive will not be issued by AUMA. AUMAs Declaration of Incorporation confirms that during the design stage of the devices, the fundamental safety requirements stipulated in the Machinery Directive were applied. AUMA actuators fulfil the requirements of the Low Voltage, ATEX and EMC Directives. This has been proved in extensive tests. Therefore, AUMA issues a Declaration of Conformity. The declarations of incorporation and conformity form a joint certificate, also integrated within the operation instructions. According to the Low Voltage and EMC directives, the devices are labelled with the CE mark.

Final inspection record


After assembly, all actuators are thoroughly tested according to AUMAs inspection specification and the torque switches are calibrated. The procedure is recorded on the final inspection record.

Certificates
Notified bodies perform type tests on the instruments to determine whether the devices are suitable for specially defined applications. One example are the tests to prove electrical safety for the North American market. If a device has passed the test, this is recorded in a certificate. For all devices mentioned in this brochure, the relevant certificates can be provided.

Where can I get the certificates?


All certificates and records are provided by AUMA on request either as a hard or digital copy. The documents can be downloaded from the AUMA website at any time; some of them are password protected.

Quality is not just a matter of trust


Actuators must be reliable and dependable. They determine the cycle of precisely defined work processes. Reliability does not begin during commissioning. It begins with a well thought out design and careful selection of materials. This continues with reliable production using state-of-the-art machine tools. This is done in clearly controlled and supervised production steps while keeping in mind the environment. The importance of environmentally sound production is reflected in our certifications according to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. However, quality management is no one-time or static matter. It has to be proven day by day. Numerous audits by our customers and independent institutes confirm these high standards.
