2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
The programmable positioner T.VIS P-15 (Tuchenhagen Valve Informations
System) kallows GEA Tuchenhagen and ASEPTOMAG single-seat valves to be
set to any position within the given stroke (5-70 mm), provided the pneumatic and
electrical connections are established correctly.
The positioner T.VIS P-15 consists of a base and a hood. It is completely
mounted on the actuator/adapter of the process valve provided for this purpose
using two clamps. The internal hose system directly connects the control air to
the process valve. For process valves which do not allow the air to be guided
internally, the control top has a connection option for supplying the air externally
via a hose.
The control top T.VIS P-15 may not be used in areas where ATEX approval is
required.
Hint!
The manufacturer will not accept any liability for damage resulting
from any use of the valve which is not in accordance with the
designated use of the valve. The risk is borne solely by the operating
company.
2.1.1 Requirements for operation
The prerequisite for reliable and safe operation of the component is proper
transportation and storage as well as professional installation and assembly.
Operating the unit within the limits of its designated use also involves adhering to
the operating, inspection and maintenance instructions.
2.1.2 Improper operating conditions
The operational safety of the component can not be guaranteed under improper
operating conditions. Therefore avoid improper operating conditions.
The operation of the component is not permitted if:
•Persons or objects are in the danger zone.
•Safety devices are not working or were removed.
•Malfunctions have been detected on the component.
•Damage to the component has been detected.
•Maintenance intervals have been exceeded.
2.2 Operator’s Duty of Care
The operating company of the component has a special responsibility for the
proper and safe handling of the component within their company. Only use the
component when it is in perfect operating condition in order to prevent danger to
persons and property.

This operating manual contains information that you and your employees need
for safe operation over the life of the component. Be sure to read these Operating
Instructions carefully and ensure that the measures described here are observed.
The operator's duty of care includes planning the necessary safety measures and
monitoring that these measures are observed. The following principles apply:
•Only qualified personnel may work on the component.
•The operating company must authorize personnel to carry out the relevant
tasks.
•Order and cleanliness must be maintained at the work stations and in the
entire area surrounding the component.
•Personnel must wear suitable work clothing and personal protective
equipment. As the operating company must ensure that work clothing and
personal protective equipment are used.
•Inform personnel regarding any properties of the product which might pose a
health risk and the preventative measures to be taken.
•Have a qualified first-aid representative on call during the operation. This
person must be able to initiate any necessary first-aid measures in case of an
emergency.
•Clearly define procedures, competences and responsibilities for those
working in the area of the component. Everybody must know what to do in
case of an emergency. Instruct the staff in this respect at regular intervals.
•The signs on the component must always be complete and easy to read.
Check, clean and replace the signs as necessary at regular intervals.
•Observe the Technical Data specified and the limits of use!
Hint!
Carry out regular checks. This way you can ensure that these
measures are actually observed.
2.3 Subsequent changes
No technical modifications should ever be made to this component. Otherwise
you will have to undergo a new conformity process in accordance with the EC
Machinery Directive on your own.
In general, only original spare parts supplied by GEA Tuchenhagen GmbH
should be fitted. This ensures that the component is always operating properly
and efficiently.
2.4 IP Protection Classes
The control top T.VIS P-15 in its standard version fulfils the requirements of
protection class IP66 (DIN EN 60529). Models in protection classes IP67 or
IP69k (both DIN EN 60529) are also available.
Safety
Subsequent changes
430BAL010747EN_3
8 24.07.2020
IP classes provide information about the degree of protection an electrical device
housing provides against the ingress of solids (first digit) or humidity (second
digit). They attempt to reproduce common kinds of failure and assign so-called IP
codes to the protected systems. The letters IP stand for 'International Protection'
and are prefixed to the code numbers.
Position of the digit Explanation
1. digit* Protection against solids
6 Dust tight
2. digit* Protection against humidity
6 Protected against powerful water jets
7Protected against temporary
immersion
9k Protected against high pressure spray
downs
*For additional digits and more detailed descriptions please refer to the
pertinent standard.
Digits not to be mentioned can be replaced by the letter x (e. g. IPx6).
Concerning the ingress of humidity, IPx6 includes all lower IP classes. This is,
however, not the case for the higher protection class IPx7!
If cleaning agents are used that significantly reduce the surface tension and/or if
high-pressure cleaners are used, we recommend using IP69k rated equipment as
an option.
Hint!
The specified IP classes only apply if the connectors are connected
correctly, if the cable gland is properly sealed and if the control top is
fitted on the valve, see Chapter 6, Page 25.
2.5 General safety instructions and dangers
The component is safe to operate. It was built according to state-of-the-art
science and technology.
Nevertheless, dangers can arise from the component, if:
•the component is not used as intended
•the component is used improperly
•the component is operated under impermissible conditions
2.5.1 Principles for safe operation
Dangerous situations during operation can be avoided by safety-conscious and
proactive behaviour of the staff.
To ensure safe operation of the valve the following principles apply:
•The Operating Instructions must be kept ready to hand at the valve's place of
use. They must be complete and in clearly legible form.
