SIEMENS 6DR4004-8D Mounting Kit – Valve Actuator Bracket for SIPART PS2 Positioner Series
Engineering Background: The SIEMENS SIPART PS2 series (6DR5xxx) is the industry benchmark for intelligent electropneumatic positioners deployed across oil & gas, chemical, power generation, and water treatment plants worldwide. Reliable mechanical integration between the positioner and the actuator is critical to achieving the ±0.1% positioning accuracy the SIPART PS2 is rated for. The 6DR4004-8D mounting kit provides the certified mechanical interface that ensures zero-slip, vibration-resistant attachment in demanding process environments.
Product Positioning: The 6DR4004-8D is a genuine SIEMENS OEM accessory designed specifically for mounting SIPART PS2 positioners onto linear or rotary valve actuators per IEC 60534-6 (NAMUR) standards. It eliminates field-fabricated brackets, reduces commissioning time, and maintains the positioner’s IP66/NEMA 4X environmental rating integrity.

Engineering Advantages
- OEM Precision Fit: Machined to SIEMENS factory tolerances — eliminates backlash and mechanical hysteresis that degrade positioning accuracy.
- NAMUR Compliance: Fully compliant with VDI/VDE 3845 and IEC 60534-6, ensuring interoperability with standard actuator yokes.
- IP Rating Preservation: Correct use of the 6DR4004-8D maintains the positioner’s IP66/NEMA 4X enclosure rating — critical for outdoor and washdown environments.
- Vibration Resistance: Rigid bracket design with locking fasteners prevents loosening under continuous process vibration (per IEC 60068-2-6).
- Reduced Commissioning Time: Drop-in fit with SIPART PS2 housing — no field drilling or custom fabrication required.
- Long Service Life: Corrosion-resistant materials rated for 10+ years in typical process environments.
System Architecture & Signal Flow
In a SIPART PS2 positioner loop, the 6DR4004-8D bracket forms the mechanical backbone of the control chain:
Control Signal (4–20 mA / HART / PROFIBUS PA / FF) → SIPART PS2 Positioner → Pneumatic Output → Actuator → Control Valve Stem
The mounting kit rigidly couples the positioner body to the actuator yoke, ensuring the internal feedback potentiometer or Hall-effect sensor accurately tracks actual valve stem travel. Any mechanical play introduced by a non-OEM bracket directly degrades the closed-loop positioning accuracy and increases I/P converter wear.

Technical FAQ
Q: Is the 6DR4004-8D compatible with all SIPART PS2 variants (HART, PROFIBUS PA, Foundation Fieldbus)?
A: Yes. The mounting kit is mechanically identical across all SIPART PS2 communication variants (6DR50xx, 6DR51xx, 6DR52xx, 6DR53xx). It interfaces with the positioner housing, not the electronics.
Q: Can this kit be used with third-party actuators?
A: The 6DR4004-8D is designed for NAMUR-compliant actuator yokes per VDI/VDE 3845. It will fit any actuator with a standard NAMUR interface. Verify yoke dimensions against the SIEMENS installation drawing (A5E00074631).
Q: What is the difference between 6DR4004-8D and other 6DR4004-xx variants?
A: The suffix designates the specific bracket geometry and actuator stroke range. The -8D variant is optimized for a specific actuator yoke width — consult the SIPART PS2 accessory selection guide (SIEMENS catalog ST PCS 7) or contact our technical team for selection assistance.
Q: Do you offer installation and commissioning support?
A: Yes. Konmask.com provides pre-sales technical consultation and post-sales installation documentation. For on-site support, contact support@konmask.com.
Q: What is the lead time for the 6DR4004-8D?
A: In-stock units ship within 1–3 business days. For project quantities (>10 units), contact us for availability and volume pricing.
