Q&A
Neles™ ND9000™ Intelligent Valve Controller Q & A
+ What is the Neles ND9000 intelligent valve controller?
It's a microcontroller-based, loop-powered (4–20 mA or fieldbus) valve positioner designed for precise control of rotary and linear valves, supporting both single- and double-acting actuators.
+ Which communication protocols does the ND9000 support?
The controller supports HART (including HART 6 and 7), FOUNDATION Fieldbus (ITK v6.1.2), and Profibus PA (PNO v3.0), and modules can be hot-swapped to switch protocols.
+ What environmental conditions can the ND9000 withstand?
Operates in temperatures from –40 °C to +85 °C (standard) or down to –53 °C (arctic), features IP66/NEMA 4X protection, rugged modular design, contactless position sensing, and high vibration/impact tolerance.
+ How is the ND9000 installed and calibrated?
Features fast and simple commissioning using a Local User Interface (LUI), DTM/EDD, or DCS tools. It supports 1-point calibration for “hot swap” mounting without interrupting the process.
+ Which valve types and actuators are compatible?
Works with both linear (10–120 mm travel) and rotary (45–95°) valves, and supports both single- and double-acting pneumatic actuators, including mounting kits for 3rd-party actuators.
