  • Patent number: 11098822
    Abstract: An arrangement includes a field device with an on/off valve, a pneumatic actuator that moves the on/off valve, when applied with compressed air, into one on/off position and when ventilated into the other on/off position, a magnetic valve that applies compressed air to the actuator during electric actuation and ventilates the actuator during non-actuation and a function monitoring device that detects at least one parameter that refers to the movement of the on/off valve, where the function monitoring device includes a magnetic field sensor detecting changes to a magnetic field, where the magnetic field sensor is arranged in the region of the magnetic valve and generates a signal awakening the function monitoring device to detect the at least one parameter.
