Troubleshooting / Fault clearance

Fault
Control medium escapes
from connector 4* (for
control function NC) or from
connector 2* (for control
function NO)
Control medium escapes
from leak detection hole*
Working medium escapes
from leak detection hole*
Valve doesn't open or
doesn't open fully
Valve leaks downstream
(doesn't close or doesn't
close fully)
Valve leaks between
actuator and valve body
Valve body connection to
piping leaks
Valve body leaks
* see chapter 20 "Sectional drawing and spare parts"
Possible cause
Actuator piston faulty
Spindle seal leaking
Valve diaphragm faulty
Control pressure too low
(for control function NC)
Pilot valve faulty
Control medium not connected
Valve diaphragm incorrectly mounted
Actuator spring faulty
(for control function NO)
Operating pressure too high
Control pressure too low (for control
function NO and control function DA)
Foreign matter between valve
diaphragm and valve body weir
Valve body weir leaking or damaged
Valve diaphragm faulty
Actuator spring faulty
(for control function NC)
Valve diaphragm incorrectly mounted
Bolting between valve body and
actuator loose
Valve diaphragm faulty
Valve body / actuator damaged
Incorrect installation
Threaded connections loose
Sealing material faulty
Valve body faulty
