Safety instructions related to the product and
technology
Danger of burns caused by hot surfaces!
Touching the surfaces of the EV1X during operation could cause burns. The
temperature on uncoated metal can exceed 64°C and on polymers can exceed
85°C.
O Let the device cool off before working on it.
O Do not touch the device during operation.
3 General Notices on Equipment and
Product Damage
Disconnecting electrical connections while under voltage will destroy the
electronic components of the EV1X!
Large differences in potential occur when disconnecting electrical connections
under voltage, which could damage the EV1X.
O Make sure the relevant system component is not under voltage before
assembling the EV1X or when connecting and disconnecting it electrically.
EV1X pressure regulators contain components sensitive to electrostatic
discharge (ESD)!
If the conductive components are touched by persons or objects, this may lead to
an electrostatic discharge that could damage or destroy the EV1X.
O Use wrist and shoe grounding straps, if necessary, when working with the
EV1X.
O Observe the basic rules for ESD.
Loss of the protection class IP65 if the device is opened!
Foreign objects and moisture could penetrate and damage the electronics.
O Never loosen the cap.
O Do not remove the sticker or the name plate.
Damage to the device if carried by the cover cap!
The cover cap could come loose and the device could fall.
O Never hold the device by the cover cap.

Operating instructions
5 About This Product
The electropneumatic pressure regulator controls an output pressure. This pressure
is given as an electrical set point. In doing so, a pressure sensor integrated in the
pressure regulator records the outlet pressure and controls it based on the set point.
As a result, the output pressure specified by the set point is also controlled if there
are disturbance variables, such as flow changes. The compact EV1X pressure
regulator has been designed for large flows.
Make sure that the operating pressure lies at least 1 bar above the
maximum output pressure to be controlled. Otherwise, only a reduced output
pressure range is available.
Product identification
O Note the information on the name plate.

6 Assembly
Danger of injury if assembled under pressure or voltage!
Assembling when under pressure or electrical voltage can lead to injuries and
damage to the product or system components.
O Make sure that the relevant system part is not under voltage or pressure
before you assemble the product.
O Protect the system against being restarted.
System is operating under pressure!
Incorrect installation may damage the maintenance unit/apparatus and cause
serious injury.
O Before commissioning, check that all connections, ports and maintenance
equipment have been correctly installed.
The regulated pressure is always listed on the thread connection on the back side.
O Never remove the plugs on the back side while under pressure.
Preparing for installation
Prepare for assembly as follows:
1. Stop system operation and protect it against being switched on.
2. Return all suspended loads to a statically secure position or remove them from
the system.
3. If required, exhaust stored compressed air from system parts in the immediate
work area.
4. Make sure the relevant section of the system is not under pressure or voltage and
protect it from being switched on.
5. Secure self-turning or other movable system parts before starting assembly.
6. Let the EV1X pressure regulator acclimate itself for several hours before
installation, otherwise water may condense in the housing.
Mount the valve
Individual valves, blocked valves, and maintenance units with valves must be
mounted on both sides to the mounting surface using a mounting element for each.
