1 Danger and Warning Indications
Danger for Persons and Materials
Use pneumatic actuator only for the intended purpose.
Additional mountings and modifications to pneumatic actuator and assemblies are only allowed
with our approval. The same applies for foreign accessories or spare parts.
Observe installation instructions.
Adhere to the rules for prevention of accidents and safety instructions related to plant.
Application Limits
It is only allowed to use the actuators
according to the details of this operating
instruction and according to the
parameters and application cases agreed
in the delivery contract (see nameplate).
Avoidance of Danger
Working at valves only by skilled personnel and with special work permit.
For disassembling the system wait for official permission. The system has to be pressureless.
After each action control ready-to-operation state of actuator and safety valve. Control all sealing
points.
Exclusion of Liability
Sempell GmbH does not accept liability when a/m regulations, instructions and warning indications
are not observed and adhered to.
2 Description
Application
The pneumatic actuator A160 is designed for the supplementary loading of safety valves and is
triggered by control device STE4 or STE5.
The working pressure difference of the safety valve can be reduced by supplementary loading.
Thereby, the margin between set pressure of safety valve and working pressure of the system is
smaller than 10% of the set pressure.
The supplementary loading (normally 20 – 30 % of the spring force of the spring loaded safety
valve) results in higher tightness at the valve seat. Opening and closing pressure differences can be
reduced. The safety valve also can be opened below the set pressure by means of the pneumatic
actuator.
To specify the supplementary loading see chapter 8.
Functioning
In normal operating state, compressed air in the space above the piston produces the
supplementary loading. The piston of the pneumatic actuator is connected with the spindle of the
safety valve.
The set pressure is adjusted by the pressure switches of the control device (STE4 or STE5). Exceeds
the system pressure the adjusted set pressure the supplementary loading is released. At the same
time lifting air is applied to the space below the piston. The safety valve opens.
If the system pressure drops below the adjusted closing pressure, the lifting air will be released and
the supplementary loading applied again. The safety valve closes.
3 Operation
3.1 Storage Rules
To preclude damages during loading and unloading move the valves cautiously. Levers and
other parts are unsuitable as lifting points. The transport shall preferable take place by crane or
transport pallet.
At delivery the outsides of all steel parts of the safety valve are supplied with a coat of paint
except the welding edges and gasket surface(s).
All connections are closed by suitable caps.
In this state the safety valve with pneumatic actuator can be stored in closed, dust-free and dry
rooms lying on a pallet without difficulties. Time of storage about six months.
Storage of more than six months asks for disassembly and visual check of the inner parts of the
safety valves. A weather-protected outside storage is not allowed.
Attention!
In each case observe the danger and warning indications of the operating instruction of the
pertaining safety valve.
Attention!
Observe and adhere to the precautions marked in the sections of this operating instruction.

For spare parts out of elastomers
(O-rings, scraper rings, rod and piston gaskets) additionally apply:
Temperature: The temperature of the storage shall be between 0°C and 25°C since otherwise
a hardening of the material and so a shortening of durability will follow. Shield heating
elements and lines in heated storeroom so that no direct heat irradiation arises. The distance
between the heat source and the stored goods has to be 1 m at least.
Moisture: To prevent the formation of condensate, avoid moist storerooms. A relative humidity
of below 65 % is at best.
Lighting: The elastomers are to be protected from direct sun light and from strong artificial
light with a high ultraviolet content. Therefore cover the windows of the storerooms with a red
or orange (in no case blue) paint.
Ozone: Protect elastomers against ozone (formation of cracks and embrittlement). The
storeroom may not contain ozone generating systems (fluorescing sources of light, mercury
vapor lamps, electric motors, etc.).
Oxygen: Protect elastomers from draught by storage containers. Oxygen causes cracking and
embrittlement.
If these requirements are guaranteed for elastomers the storage time is about 5 years.
For spare parts out of steel:
Store the parts in closed, dust-free and dry rooms so that damages do not occur.
3.2 Compressed-Air Connection
The connections of the lifting and loading air lines are lateral to the pneumatic actuator. The
pertaining compressed-air hoses (attached to delivery) enable the tension-free connection to
the pneumatic actuator.
The compressed-air hoses for pneumatic actuator have tube fittings including ferrule with
which pipe OD Ø 22 x 2 can be fastened.
IMPORTANT
Clean the lifting and loading air lines by blowing out with compressed air before connection.
Take care that the controlled air lines are correct assigned:
- Loading air line at the upper connection of the pneumatic actuator
- Lifting air line at the bottom connection of the pneumatic actuator
3.4 Commissioning
Check functional readiness of actuator.
Prove duly interaction of safety valve and control device STE4 or STE5. Check according to
operating instruction of the pertaining control device.
3.3 Pressure Test
Either flange off safety valve and close supply line with a blind flange or mechanically block the
valve. In case of welded-in safety valves a pressure test plug can be used.
Screw on cap (160.14) upside down to the piston rod (160.06) and sturdily tighten with
hexagonal screw (160.16) to the cylinder cover (160.02) so that the disc is blocked in closed
position.
Attention!
The lifting of the safety valve must be prevented.
Attention!
For blocked safety valve the test pressure can be up to 1.5x the set pressure without
consulting Sempell.
Attention!
In case of removed cap (160.14) take care that no dirt or parts fall into the cylinder.
Restore and control ready-to-operation state after the pressure test.

8 Determination of the Characteristics
By means of the recommended pneumatic actuator all safety valves (see chapter 8.1 and 8.2)
obtain a supplementary loading of at least 30 %. The safety valves can be opened at a system
pressure of 85 % of the set pressure p with the pneumatic actuators. This applies for a control air
pressure of 6 bar.
8.1 Calculations
Supplementary loading
Supplementary loading is the additional sealing force (closing force) either percentage from the
adjusted spring force or referring to the set pressure according to the formula:
Example
Safety valve VSE orifice letter F (see section 8.1)
set pressure p = 130 bar
control air pressure pk = 5 bar
From table:
pneumatic actuator type A160.1.22
constant K1 = 15.1
K2 = 13.9
Z [%] =
K1 x pk
x 100%
p
Terms:
supplementary loading = Z, constant 1 = K1,
control air pressure [bar] = pk, set pressure [bar] = p
Required system pressure for compulsory opening of the safety valve below the set
pressure
The minimum pressure p (syst. A) at which the set pressure of the valve can be checked, is
calculated as follows:
p (sys.A) = p – K2 x pk
The minimum pressure p (syst. H), at which the valve can be compulsorily opened completely
up to the lift stop, approximately results from:
p (syst.H) = p –
K2 x pk
2
Terms:
constant 2 = K2, control air pressure [bar] = pk, set pressure [bar] = p
Z =
15.1 x 5
x 100% = 58.1%
130
p (sys. A) = 130 – 13.9 x 5 = 60.5 bar
p (syst. H) = 130 –
13.9 x 5
= 95.3 bar
