3TERMS AND DEFINITIONs
For the purposes of this Standard, the following termsand definitions apply.
3.1
actuator: part of a component for the displacement ofthe movable parts of，for example, a shut-off valve oran electromechanical switching device.
3.2
actuating device: actuator consisting of several function-ally inlerrelaled componenls or elemenls,the descrip-tion of which nccds a diagram.
EXAMPLE An actuator consisting of a fluid or electric motor, asct of auxiliary contacts, and a mcasuring transducer transmittinginformation on the actual position of the actuated device.
3.3
7zanaal actaator: actuator for opcration by human forcc.3.4
automatic: (controi,operation) self-acting (not needinghunan intervention).
3.5
austomatic actuafor: actuator activated without humanintervention.
EXAMPLE Actuation by a proccsc variable or from a remotc control unit.
3.6
automatic return device: device for returning movableparts, for example, those of a valve, to initial position (at-rest position) after an actuating force has been removed.
3.7
clutch: device for connecting and disconnecting workingparts, for example, of a machine.
3.8
deley device: device providing a tine interval betweenthe instant when an actuating force is applied orremoved and the instant when the consequent changeof position or state of the affected parts starts.
3.9
detent: device that retains movable parts,for example,those of a valve, in a certain position until sufficientforce is applied to overcome the detaining force in orderto move the parts to another position.
