Operation Manual and Mounting Instructions for a

VGD4/VRD4 double gas valve with 2 SKPx5

actuators

Note!

The combination of a VGD4/VRD4 double gas valve with a QPLx5 pressure switch

and SKPx5 actuator does not require any maintenance.

Caution!

This document is intended for end users. All legal, safety, warning, and

technical notes contained in the data sheets for the SKPx5 actuator (N7643),

VGD4 double gas valve (N7631), VRD4 double gas valve for biogases and

recycling gases (N7649), and the QPLx5 pressure switch (N7221) are also

applicable!

1 Use

The combination of the SKPx5 actuator and VGD4/VRD4 double gas valve takes on

the functions of a

∂Safety shutoff valve (SKP15)

∂Safety shutoff valve with specific pressure control (SKP25)

1.1 SKP15 actuator

The electrohydraulically operated SKP15 gas fittings together with VGD4/VRD4 work

exclusively as a safety shutoff valve (OPEN/CLOSED) and are used primarily on gas-

fired combustion plant. They open slowly and close rapidly. The SKP15 actuator can be

supplied with end switches including a valve stroke display or without an end switch or

valve stroke display.

1.2 SKP25 actuator

The electrohydraulically operated SKP25 gas fittings together with VGD4/VRD4 work

as a safety shutoff valve (OPEN/CLOSED) and are also used as a gas pressure

governor. This controls the gas pressure on the outlet side according to the setpoint

value established by means of a setpoint spring. The SKP25 actuator can be supplied

with or without an end switch.

The valve stroke display is generally provided.

2 Description of the SKPx5 actuators

Operating mode display

Valve stroke display

The valve stroke display indicates the relative valve stroke. Depending on the tolerance

limits, the fully closed position of the valve may vary. The maximum achievable valve

stroke with a fully open valve seat varies according to the type and size of the valve:

From 12 mm to 25 mm. During normal operation of an SKP25 actuator, it is also

possible to observe the stability and oscillation tendency in addition to the opening of

the valve seat.

Note!

SKP15.000Ex actuators do not have a valve stroke display!
