Replacement part for 64-061-31 valve

Issue  64-061-31 is no longer available and needs to be replaced Environment 64-061-31  TAC valve TAC DWV - PN 6 DN 32  Cause valve no longer available Resolution This old TAC Valve is no longer in production, Schneider Electric do not have any PN6 valves. It's mainly Germany/Austria that uses PN6 valves. Dimensionally they are the same as PN16 valves, the main difference is the wall thickness but in all practical terms it costs more to have two separate tools for each valve PN hence why Schneider and 90% of other suppliers just have PN16 even though they may only ever be used under 6 bar static pressure. As a replacement flanged valve, DN32, the V211 valve is suggested

TC303 thermostat parameter 2 setting and energy saving mode operation

Issue TC303 thermostat parameter 2 setting and energy saving mode operation Product Line Field Devices Environment TC303-3A2DLMS TC303-3A4DLMS Cause The TC-303 parameter 2 setting is used to configure the fan operation status (fan on or fan off) after the temperature setpoint is reached. In the datasheet, it indicates that when the energy saving mode is activated, the fan will run at low speed. The datasheet does not mention what will happen if parameter 2 is set to fan off and energy saving mode is activated. Resolution Test results: If parameter 2 is set to fan off when temperature is reached, the fan will turn off when energy saving mode is activated. Below is the test result in cooling mode. Parameter 2 set to 00 (fan off when temperature is reached) Room temperature 24.0°C / Setpoint 20°C Enable energy saving mode - fan turns off  Parameter 2 set to 01 (fan on when temperature is reached) Room temperature 24.0°C / Setpoint 20°C Enable energy saving mode - fan continues to run.  If parameter 2 is set to fan off when temperature is reached, the fan will off when in energy saving mode when the temperature is reached. See below for test results in cooling mode.   1. Parameter 2 set to 00 (fan off when temperature is reached) Room temperature 24.0'CSetpoint 20'C Enable energy saving mode - fan turns off   2. Parameter 2 set to 01 (fan on when temperature is reached) Room temperature 24.0'CSetpoint 20'C Enable energy saving mode - fan continues to run.  If parameter 2 is set to fan off when temperature is reached, the fan will off when in energy saving mode when the temperature is reached. See below for test results in cooling mode.   1. Parameter 2 set to 00 (fan off when temperature is reached) Room temperature 24.0'CSetpoint 20'C Enable energy saving mode - fan turns off   2.

Schneider Electric Heat Meter Multical 602 - Pulse output card

Issue Selection and installation of a pulsed output module. Product Line Andover Continuum, EcoStruxure Building Operation, Field Devices, Satchwell Sigma, TAC Vista Environment Heat Meter Multical 602 Pulsed output module No pulses Cause Installed card does not give output pulses. Resolution Selection of the output card. The Schneider Electric part number is MAPULSETOPC and this is the equivalent to Kamstrup part number 602-0C This card will provide 2 pulse outputs for energy and volume, CE and CV respectively. Normally, energy (CE) is connected to 16-17 and volume (CV) to 18-19, but other combinations can be selected via the PC program METERTOOL, also used to select pulse duration 32 or 100 ms. The MAPULSETOPC is actually a top module, which means that it is fitted into the top piece of the MC602 calculator, basically the inside LCD cover. This is released by pressing downwards in the middle of the plastic piece on the left, and at the same time pushing the top module towards the left.

Voltage spike from SLR320 when first powered

Issue When an SLR320 light level sensor has power applied a transient voltage (approx. 17VDC) is seen on the output. Environment SLR320 Cause In order to provide dual output capability (voltage and current) with both AC and DC supply, it is necessary to use a capacitor to filter the AC supply. This capacitor is also active in current mode because it is placed behind the rectifier at the G clamp. An additional resistance is added inside to minimize this load current. This load current of the capacitor (which is the cause of transient voltage) cannot be reduced to zero, otherwise the voltage output cannot be used at AC supply within its specification (max. output voltage @ min. load resistance @ min. supply voltage, Y clamp). Resolution This behavior is expected and by design. The transient voltage generated by the load current is settled within approximately 40ms and occurs only at power up. The transmitter is continuously powered so this would not normally be an issue and would have stabilized before a controller that was powered up at the same time would be booted and scanning it's inputs.

Satchwell MB series 3-port Rotary Shoe Valve Body conversion for use as a 2-port Zone Valve.

Issue Satchwell MB series 3-port Rotary Shoe Valve Body conversion for use as a 2-port Zone Valve. Environment HVAC heating and cooling installations requiring a 2-port Zone Valve having pipework connection size in excess of 3/4" B.S.P. Cause HVAC heating or cooling installations requiring a 2-port Zone Valve Body having a connection sizes in excess of the usual 3/4" B.S.P. HVAC heating or cooling installations requiring a 2-port Valve Body to be installed in place of a 3-port Valve Body originally installed.  Resolution 1  Install plumber's plug in Port 3 of MB series 3-port Rotary Shoe Valve Body. 2. Tighten plumber's plug sufficiently to ensure PN 10 rating of Valve Body is not compromised. IMPORTANT Careful consideration should be given to the use of this conversion method with 3-port Valve Bodies of Plug and Seat construction. Here only "dish nosed" or "hollow ended" plumber's plugs should be installed in Port 3 of the Valve Body. The purpose of this is to prevent fouling of the Plug / Seat assembly within the Valve Body. N.B. In preference a Satchwell VZ 2-port Plug and Seat Valve Body should be replaced by a Satchwell MZ 3-port Plug and Seat Valve Body.

AVUE 5304, AVUE 5354, AVUE 5305 or AVUE 5355 Light Duty Actuator does not respond to changes in control signal.

Issue AVUE 5304, AVUE 5354, AVUE 5305 or AVUE 5355 Light Duty Actuator does not respond to changes in control signal. Environment AVUE 5304 or AVUE 5354 Light Duty Actuator installed on VZX or MZX Valve Body.. AVUE 5305 or AVUE 5355 Light Duty Actuator installed on Satchwell VEU, MEU or FEU Unit Valve Body.. Cause AVUE 5304, AVUE 5354, AVUE 5305 or AVUE 5355 Light Duty Actuator may not respond to changes in control signal due to self stroking / auto stroking procedure failing to occur when originally installed, or due to manual override having been undertaken without subsequent reset procedure having been applied. Resolution 1.  Check that 0v of 0-10v dc control signal and 0v of 24v ac power supply originate from same source. 2.  Undertake Manual Override Reset. The Manual Override Reset Button is located on the underside of the AVUE Actuator. The purpose of the Manual Override Reset Button is to cause the Actuator to self reference. A reset is required only in the following circumstances. A.  If the Manual Override Access screw on the top of the Actuator has been operated when the Actuator is powered up. B.  If it is necessary to re-align the Actuator to a point of self reference during periods of system maintenance. N.B. The AVUE is designed to reset automatically on restoration of power following a power failure.  It should be noted that it will take approximately 85 seconds (AVUE 5305 and AVUE 5355) or 110 seconds (AVUE 5304 and AVUE 5354) for the self reference procedure to be completed.
