Position indicator
The motorized valve for gas VK..Z features a two-stage ac-
tuator. The first stage can be set between 1% and 90% us-
ing a switch. A second stage can be set between 10% and
100% using an additional flow rate restrictor.

Opening: when the motorized valve for gas is opened, the

closed position indicator switches and returns the “open”
signal.
Closing: the motorized valve for gas VK is disconnected
from the voltage supply and the closing spring presses the
valve plate on to the valve seat. In the process, the closed
position indicator switches and returns the “closed” signal.
Connection rating: 30–250 V, 50/60 Hz, max. 10 A (resistive
load).
