Auxiliary relays Control

For status indication or diagnostic purposes, 8 voltage-free contacts of 8 relays are available to be configured individually to switch upon occurrence of the following conditions:

The contacts may be configured to make or break on condition. The options with (*) also appear in the menu, but they are not available on the XTE3000 and XTE3000v2.

Configuration procedure

Move the local selector to OFF and then simultaneously press OPEN and STOP. Select the language and enter the password according to the instructions (see “Entering the set-up mode”). When the message displayed is “SET-UP MODE OK?” press YES. Press YES to select the “Actuator Setup” menu, press NO to scroll though the list of available routines, and then press YES to select “Output Relays”

Configure output relays

Press YES to change the monitor relay or NO to change auxiliary relays AS1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.

Monitor relay

Press YES or NO to enable or disable the following situations from the
conditions that normally de-energize the monitor relay: motor over-temperature, over-torque, jammed valve, manual override, ESD signal on, low lithium battery (if present), local STOP pressed, LOCAL/OFF selected.

Auxiliary relays AS1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8

• Press NO to answer prompt “MONITOR RELAY change?”.
• Press YES to change AS1; otherwise, press NO to select the other relays.
• Press YES if the condition associated to AS1 relay is correct; otherwise, press NO to scrolls through the list of conditions and press YES to set.
• Press YES or NO to either confirm or change the type of contact when the condition occurs (break, make). Since relay AS8 is a change-over relay (i.e. not a latching relay like AS1-AS7), this option is not available.
• Press NO to proceed to AS2 and then repeat the procedure for the other relays.
  Press NO to exit.

Monitor relay

The voltage-free, change-over contacts of the monitor relay indicate that the actuator is either available for remote control or that a problem or a condition preventing remote control of the valve exists.

The monitor relay is normally energized and will be de-energized on:

• mains voltage failure
• lost phase
• internal temperature alarm
• K1 contactor failure
• K2 contactor failure
• position sensor failure
• speed sensor failure
• configuration error
• hardware error
• mid-travel alarm
• request signal (available if positioner enabled and request from 4 - 20 mA)

The following situations can be configured individually to not de-energize the monitor relay when they occur:

• motor over-temperature
• over-torque
• jammed valve
• LOCAL/OFF selected
• manual operation
• ESD signal on (ESD-EFS)
• low lithium battery (if present)
• LOCAL/STOP pressed
