Frequently Asked Questions
- What does fail freeze mean?
- The actuator holds its last position.
- This happens when electrical power fails.
- Can I use this positioner without explosion protection?
- Yes, this model has no explosion protection (option 0).
- Use in safe, non-hazardous areas only.
- Positioner does not respond to 4-20mA signal.
- Check loop current above 3.8 mA minimum.
- Verify wiring polarity to two-wire terminals.
- Measure voltage at positioner terminals (min 8.7V).
- What air pipe thread does this use?
- Thread is 1/4-18 NPT for air connection.
- Cable entry uses M20 x 1.5 thread.
- Purchase Guide (Selection Guide)
- Choose V18345-1010551001 for non-hazardous areas.
- Pick this model when double acting fail freeze is required.
