Product Type Smart Electronic Valve Positioner
Brand / Series Foxboro ECKARDT SRD900 Series
Supply Air Pressure Typically 1.4 - 7 bar (20 - 100 psi)
Output Action Single-acting (as per code "E")
Ambient Temperature Standard: -30°C to +80°C (-22°F to +176°F)
Enclosure & Protection
Housing Material Aluminum (typical)
Ingress Protection (IP) IP66/67 (NEMA 4X equivalent), protected against powerful water jets and temporary immersion.
Electrical
Input Signal & Wiring 4-20 mA DC, 2-wire system (as per code "B"). The device is powered by the same 4-20 mA loop.
Load Resistance Typically up to 850 Ohms at 20 mA (depending on air supply pressure).
Intrinsic Safety Available options for Ex ia IIC T6 Ga (must be specified in order code).
Connection Cable gland, M20 x 1.5 (as per code "Z").
Mechanical & Pneumatic
Mounting Direct mounting per VDI/VDE 3845 standard (as per code "D"). Adapter kits available for other standards.
Travel Sensing Mechanically coupled to the valve stem; range defined by the "SG6" code.
Air Consumption Very low (in steady state, typically < 0.01 Nl/min).
Flow Capacity (Cv) High, allowing for fast valve stroking.
Performance & Communication
Accuracy High, typically better than ±0.5% of span.
Hysteresis Very low, typically < 0.1%.
Communication Integrated HART® protocol. This allows for digital communication for configuration, calibration, and diagnostics using a HART communicator or asset management software. This is a standard feature in smart positioners like the SRD960.
The Foxboro ECKARDT SRD960-BHQDSG6EEDZFA-X is a high-performance, microprocessor-based smart electronic valve positioner. It is designed to accurately control the position of pneumatic control valves in process automation systems.
