Setup, Calibration and<br />

Partial Stroke Testing<br />

Partial Stroke Testing<br />

Discrete output (SW1) is de-energized for any fault related to the I/P,<br />

relay, or valve/actuation assembly, resulting from a PST or during normal<br />

operation.<br />

For most fault conditions, the <strong>ESD</strong> device attempts to remain in the<br />

energized state until an <strong>ESD</strong> command is given (unless specified<br />

otherwise during setup).<br />

Key components of Safety Instrumented System (SIS) are final control elements<br />

such as emergency shutdown devices, i.e. the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong>. The <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> and it’s<br />

associated valve are not continually moving like a typical control valve, but are<br />

normally expected to remain static in one position and then reliably operate upon<br />

an emergency situation. Valves that remain in one position for long periods of time<br />

can be become stuck in that position and may not operate when needed. To<br />

ensure the integrity of the <strong>ESD</strong> valve the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> requires periodic testing.<br />

One of the great features of the <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> is the ability to test the safety valve<br />

on-line, without removing the safety valve from the SIS. The <strong>SVI</strong> <strong>II</strong> <strong>ESD</strong> allows<br />

you to automatically, or on demand perform a Partial Stroke Test (PST) which<br />

returns relevant variables about valve operation and can allow you to detect<br />

potentially dangerous failures.<br />

PST Configuration<br />

Before running PST, configure the parameters; travel, maximum pressure,<br />

maximum time, ramp speed, and spring. You can configure PST parameters from<br />

the pushbutton display and also using ValVue <strong>ESD</strong>. Refer to Table 6 on page 46<br />

for PST configuration parameters.<br />

PST Configuration with Display<br />

When using the LCD display to configure PST:<br />

1. Aces the PST Configuration (PST CONF) menu. (Refer to Figure 22 on<br />

page 51 for menu structure.)<br />

2. Scroll through each PST parameter and adjust accordingly.<br />

PST Configuration with ValVue <strong>ESD</strong><br />

When using ValVue <strong>ESD</strong> to configure PST:<br />

1. Select the Configure Screen in ValVue <strong>ESD</strong>.<br />

2. Set the PST parameters to the appropriate settings.<br />

3. Apply and save changes.<br />
