Axiom AX
Axiom Explosionproof
Advanced performance and reliability in harsh environments
The Axiom explosionproof
platform, available in epoxycoated anodized aluminum or
stainless steel, will withstand
your most challenging plant
environments. Its advanced
position monitoring and
integral pneumatic control
offer the ultimate in reliability,
convenience, and value.
Exceptional reliability
Universal application
The Axiom is designed to perform reliably in
adverse conditions. Its non-contact position
sensing system, with fully potted and sealed
electronics, is completely protected inside
the water-tight explosionproof enclosure.
The integral pneumatic control is tolerant
of contaminants and able to operate on
standard plant air. A rebreather capability
is also standard, eliminating potential
ingestion of outside contaminants into the
spring side of single-acting actuators.
One conventional model will satisfy most
applications with standard 20 to 240 VAC
or VDC monitoring feedback and solenoid
control. Standard models also feature high
flow five-way, two-position pneumatic control
suitable for both single- and double-acting
actuation. Bus communication models offer
the same pneumatic control and have pilots
tuned for very low power consumption
minimizing voltage drops on long cable runs.
Space efficient design
The Axiom AX encloses all electrical
components in an explosionproof
compartment with less than 5” (130 mm)
clearance requirement above the top
of the actuator. Additional clearance for
cover removal is less than 2” (50 mm)
because there is no shaft to lift over.
The automated valve spacing envelope
is minimized without compromising
performance or maintainability.
Rugged construction
Choose from the robust epoxycoated anodized aluminum or the
316 stainless steel enclosure designed
for explosionproof applications. This
platform is extremely durable and is also
well-suited for use in corrosive, heavy
washdown and high seas environments.

Features
1. Universal voltage solenoid system
operates on less than 0.6 watts of power
and is burn out proof. Standard version
will accept 24 VDC, 120 VAC or 240 VAC
reducing stocking requirements.
2. Prefiltered pilot valve provides
additional protection from contaminants.
3. Easy removal from automated
valve package is accomplished with
captured stainless steel fasteners and
unique modular design.
4. Integral pneumatic valve operates
on standard plant air, will cycle most
actuators in less than two seconds, and is
modularized for easy clean out if fouling
occurs.
5. External pneumatic valve override
options are available enabling local
automated valve operation. (Internal pilot
momentary override is standard on all
solenoids.)
6. Standard 5-way, 2-position valve
operates both single-acting and doubleacting actuators and features a standard
rebreather to feed instrument air into
spring side of actuator to keep out
corrosives.
7. Highest explosionproof ratings
suitable for use in Ex d IIC Zone I and
Class I, Division 1 areas.
+1 218 739 5774
8. Durable enclosure and manifold/
mounting plate are available in
epoxy-coated anodized aluminum or
316 stainless steel. All fasteners, indicator
couplers, and pneumatic valve end-caps
are made of 316 stainless steel.
9. Push button set points for open and
closed accurately lock in position settings
which remain in place when power is
removed and reapplied.
14.High visibility mechanical and
electronic indication confirms open/
closed position and solenoid status for
greater safety and convenience.
15.Axiom directly attaches to VDI/
VDE 3845 (NAMUR) actuators and
many others using a compact mounting
manifold system (sold separately).
10.Electronic components are sealed and
potted inside function module to protect
against residual moisture, vibration, and
corrosives.
11.Rapid enclosure access with
the screw-on cover saves valuable
maintenance and set-up time. The cover
provides a vapor tight seal and allows
entry to internal components in seconds.
Stainless steel enclosure
12.High accuracy position sensor
system is solid state with no moving
wear points for highly reliable and precise
position feedback.
13.No bushings or shafts will wear out.
Electronic module, with magnetically
driven position sensor, is fully isolated
from the outside environment. Actuator
wear causing shaft “wobble” will not affect
monitoring performance.

Axiom AX
Pneumatic control
The Axiom’s pneumatic valve system consists of a low-power pilot that drives the main highflow spool valve. Pilots may be selected for conventional or bus networking applications.
Both stages of the pneumatic valve system have been designed for long life, high tolerance
to air line contaminants, and ease of maintenance should components become fouled.
Special features
• Pilot and main spool design offer long life, exceptional tolerance to
dirty air, and tight shut-off.

Axiom AX
Manifold and mounting system
The mounting manifold system directly attaches the Axiom
to the actuator and ports air from the pneumatic valve to
the actuator. Included in the manifold system are:
1. Actuator shaft adaptor and fastener.
2. Epoxy-coated anodized aluminum or stainless steel mounting
plate manifold with o-rings and stainless steel fasteners.
The manifold system readily adapts to VDI/VDE 3845 NAMUR
sizes 1 and 2. Special variations may be made for sizes 3, 4 and
non‑standardized quarter-turn actuator mounting patterns.
Modular mounting design cuts valve removal costs
The Axiom enclosure may be quickly and conveniently disconnected
from the actuator. Electrical components and wiring, along with
pneumatic supply, may remain
attached to the explosionproof
enclosure while it is removed
from the mounting/manifold
plate (pneumatic supply
should be shut off ). Mounting/
manifold with pneumatic
tubing remains attached to
the valve/actuator which then
may be pulled out of line.
The mounting manifold system is specified and sold separately. Kits are specific
to actuator manufacturer. For kit numbers visit: StoneL.com/mounting.
Actuator configuration
The same Axiom model is suitable for both single-acting and doubleacting actuators. And the rebreather capability for single-acting is also
standard. Field configuration may be made by conveniently removing
and reinserting the pneumatic plug for the appropriate actuator type.

Axiom AX
Position sensor and module
Position sensor
The Axiom utilizes a magnetic resistive (Mag Res) sensor system that
monitors exact valve position. The Mag Res sensor system is tolerant
of lateral and vertical shaft movement which may be experienced in
high cycle worn
actuators without
affecting rotational
measurement. No
cams, shafts or
other mechanical
apparatus are
required that are
prone to wear
and binding.
C-module
Used in the Axiom platform, the C-module (continuous sensing)
integrates a magnetic resistive sensor system to monitor exact
valve position throughout the
rotational range. Push button
or remote open and closed
position setting along with
microprocessor based operation
make this state-of-the-art system
convenient, reliable, and smart.
Open and closed settings
Switches correspond to a particular
valve position and are set using the
push button panel on the module’s
sealed membrane pad. Simply
operate the actuator to the open
position (using standard internal
manual override) and push the “Set
Open” button. Operate the actuator
to the closed position and push
the “Set Closed” button. Position
settings remain locked in when
power is removed and reapplied.
Visual indicator
Visual indicator designations
Clearly view valve position status from up to 75 feet with the Axiom's visual indicator. The indicator’s
rugged Lexan® construction makes it resistant to physical damage and tolerant to most corrosives.

Diagnostic systems
Reduce plant downtime and cut maintenance costs
The Axiom AS-Interface and HART models feature on-board diagnostics that predict
potential automated valve malfunctions. As a result, plant downtime may be reduced by
repairing automated valves during planned shutdowns instead of process operations. Should
problems occur during process operation, maintenance personnel will be aided by rapidly
locating failure causes, consequently speeding up valve repair and operation renewal.
Identify potential problems
• Check air supply pressure
Alerts are activated if low or high levels
exceed preset thresholds that would
threaten pneumatic valve or actuator
performance.
• Determine solenoid condition
Voltage and current levels are monitored to
determine the health of the solenoid coil
whenever energized.
• Local trouble-shooting display
• Monitor pneumatic spool and pilot
valve operation
Pneumatic valve spool position is
monitored to determine proper shifting
performance when the solenoid is
energized and de-energized.
• Remote switch setting
Open and closed limit switch settings may
be made with on-board push buttons or
remotely through the control system.
Device LED array identifies problem
sources for rapid trouble-shooting and
maintenance at the valve/actuator site.
Axiom with AS-Interface
diagnostics in AX & AMI (96)
• Field identify with winking
To positively confirm the field device
identity, the control room may initiate
the Wink function that flashes both open
and closed LEDs without affecting valve
operation.
• Stuck process valve/actuator
If the Axiom stalls in mid stroke and no
Axiom problem sources are identified
an alert will be energized to indicate the
problem source is in the valve/actuator
assembly.
T416 alarm: low air supply pressure
The AX and AMI (96) offers basic diagnostics for AS-Interface network
applications that enable end use customers to increase uptime and
reduce maintenance costs. Axiom AS-Interface diagnostic systems
interface with any version 2.1 or greater masters/gateways.
Electrical connections
The Axiom with AS-Interface diagnostics uses standard (1-31)
addressing with a 4DI/4DO profile to maximize the diagnostic
data available via the network. Diagnostic units may be integrated
on the same network as other AS-Interface devices.
Control system interface
Interface up to 31 Axiom units into your control system.
Communication bits may be mapped into standard DCS or
PLC as desired. No special software is required. See the StoneL
FieldLink program for information about the cost saving
benefits and easy installation of the AS-Interface protocol.

Axiom AX
Axiom with HART in AX & AMI (71) features comprehensive predictive diagnostics
The AX71 and the AMI71 is a valve monitoring and control device
for discrete quarter-turn automated valves. Used in conventional
applications, it has the added capability of providing diagnostic
information for the pilot solenoid, spool valve, and actuator. And, the
device stores historical data on each open and closed operation.
Valve/actuator end-stop changes
Exact valve position is continuously measured and may
be used to determine if changes have occurred at end-oftravel. Deviations from zero or span endpoints are graphically
portrayed to alert maintenance staff of worn end-stops.
Excessive valve torque changes
Open and closed breakaway actuator differential pressures
are measured and compared to baseline levels during each
operation. This enables operators to observe unusual pressure/
torque level trends, which may ultimately lead to a malfunction.
Erratic valve/actuator performance
Total travel time and dead time (time between energizing and
initial actuator movement) are measured during each operation,
recorded, and compared to the baseline. This gives maintenance
staff additional clues on potential automated valve problems.
Easy control system integration
System connections
HART signal
Two, 2-wire connections attach to the control system to provide
discrete solenoid control and continuous position monitoring.
A standard 24 VDC discrete output (DO) powers and controls
the solenoid valve. Intrinsically safe solenoid pilot may also be
selected. A conventional 4-20 mA analog input (AI) provides
continuous exact valve position feedback into the control system.

HART Modem
The HART communication signal is overlaid on the 4-20 mA
analog position monitoring input. The signal may be read
via internal modem in the DCS system or external modem.
External modems may transmit information to a DCS or to
a remote PC via a hardwired or a wireless connection.
Software integration
Integration to various DCS or asset management systems may
be achieved using open, standardized technologies such as
enhanced EDDL (Electronic Device Description Language) or
FDT/DTM (Field Device Tool/Device Type Manager). Most DCS
vendors use one or both of these technologies, which provides
open access to device intelligence and allows easy use of all
features and benefits available from the Axiom HART device.

Axiom Expeditor
Improve process performance and prevent damage to equipment with intermediate control
With expanded control and monitoring capabilities, the
Flow dampening
Axiom Expeditor offers unparalleled value in batch processing
applications. Below are a few examples of applications where
the Axiom Expeditor may improve your plant operation.
Fill control
Fill tanks and hoppers rapidly and accurately. You can set the
Axiom Expeditor to partially close the valve to reduce flow as
the full level approaches. You get fast, economical “topping
off” of every batch with a single valve sized for high flow rates,
which may be throttled back at the end of the fill cycle.
The Axiom Expeditor allows valves to close using multiple steps,
which inhibits water hammer resulting from a sudden full closure.
You get prolonged valve and piping life, improved process
flow performance and less potential for catastrophic failure.
Thermal shock reduction
By partially opening a standard discrete valve, steam lines
are heated gradually; thus preventing thermal shock. Once
lines are heated, full opening may occur minimizing any
potential damage to steam lines. This is especially critical in
CIP (clean-in-place) and SIP (steam-in-place) applications.
Closed
Partial open
Fill
Top off

Full open
Fast, convenient set-up
Calibration may be performed quickly and easily using the
Axiom Expeditor’s readily accessible membrane control pad.
By simply following the on-board instructions, with the unit
powered up, all set-up procedures may be performed in a few
easy steps and the actuator evaluated for proper stroke timing.
During set-up, as mentioned above, the Axiom Expeditor
automatically gages the speed of the actuator to determine if
flow restrictors are needed. If full stroke is less than one second,
flow restrictors (included with each Expeditor from the factory) are
required to assure smooth, consistent intermediate control operation.

Axiom AMI
Position sensor and module
Position sensor
The Axiom utilizes a magnetic resistive (Mag Res) sensor system that
monitors exact valve position. The Mag Res sensor system is tolerant
of lateral and vertical shaft movement which may be experienced in
high cycle worn
actuators without
affecting rotational
measurement. No
cams, shafts or
other mechanical
apparatus are
required that are
prone to wear
and binding.
C-module
Used in the Axiom platform, the C-module (continuous sensing)
integrates a magnetic resistive sensor system to monitor exact
valve position throughout the
rotational range. Push button
or remote open and closed
position setting along with
microprocessor based operation
make this state-of-the-art system
convenient, reliable, and smart.
Open and closed settings
Switches correspond to a particular
valve position and are set using the
push button panel on the module’s
sealed membrane pad. Simply
operate the actuator to the open
position (using standard internal
manual override) and push the “Set
Open” button. Operate the actuator
to the closed position and push
the “Set Closed” button. Position
settings remain locked in when
power is removed and reapplied.
Visual indicator
Visual indicator designations
Clearly view valve position status from up to 75 feet with the Axiom's visual indicator. The indicator’s
rugged Lexan® construction makes it resistant to physical damage and tolerant to most corrosives.

Axiom AMI
Diagnostic systems
Reduce plant downtime and cut maintenance costs
The Axiom AS-Interface and HART models feature on-board diagnostics that predict
potential automated valve malfunctions. As a result, plant downtime may be reduced by
repairing automated valves during planned shutdowns instead of process operations. Should
problems occur during process operation, maintenance personnel will be aided by rapidly
locating failure causes, consequently speeding up valve repair and operation renewal.
Identify potential problems
• Check air supply pressure
Alerts are activated if low or high levels
exceed preset thresholds that would
threaten pneumatic valve or actuator
performance.
• Determine solenoid condition
Voltage and current levels are monitored to
determine the health of the solenoid coil
whenever energized.
• Local trouble-shooting display
• Monitor pneumatic spool and pilot
valve operation
Pneumatic valve spool position is
monitored to determine proper shifting
performance when the solenoid is
energized and de-energized.
• Remote switch setting
Open and closed limit switch settings may
be made with on-board push buttons or
remotely through the control system.
Device LED array identifies problem
sources for rapid trouble-shooting and
maintenance at the valve/actuator site.
Axiom with AS-Interface
diagnostics in AX & AMI (96)
• Field identify with winking
To positively confirm the field device
identity, the control room may initiate
the Wink function that flashes both open
and closed LEDs without affecting valve
operation.
• Stuck process valve/actuator
If the Axiom stalls in mid stroke and no
Axiom problem sources are identified
an alert will be energized to indicate the
problem source is in the valve/actuator
assembly.
T416 alarm: low air supply pressure
The AX and AMI (96) offers basic diagnostics for AS-Interface network
applications that enable end use customers to increase uptime and
reduce maintenance costs. Axiom AS-Interface diagnostic systems
interface with any version 2.1 or greater masters/gateways.
Electrical connections
The Axiom with AS-Interface diagnostics uses standard (1-31)
addressing with a 4DI/4DO profile to maximize the diagnostic
data available via the network. Diagnostic units may be integrated
on the same network as other AS-Interface devices.
Control system interface
Interface up to 31 Axiom units into your control system.
Communication bits may be mapped into standard DCS or
PLC as desired. No special software is required. See the StoneL
FieldLink program for information about the cost saving
benefits and easy installation of the AS-Interface protocol.

Axiom AMI
Axiom with HART in AX & AMI (71) features comprehensive predictive diagnostics
The AX71 and the AMI71 is a valve monitoring and control device
for discrete quarter-turn automated valves. Used in conventional
applications, it has the added capability of providing diagnostic
information for the pilot solenoid, spool valve, and actuator. And, the
device stores historical data on each open and closed operation.
Valve/actuator end-stop changes
Exact valve position is continuously measured and may
be used to determine if changes have occurred at end-oftravel. Deviations from zero or span endpoints are graphically
portrayed to alert maintenance staff of worn end-stops.
Excessive valve torque changes
Open and closed breakaway actuator differential pressures
are measured and compared to baseline levels during each
operation. This enables operators to observe unusual pressure/
torque level trends, which may ultimately lead to a malfunction.
Erratic valve/actuator performance
Total travel time and dead time (time between energizing and
initial actuator movement) are measured during each operation,
recorded, and compared to the baseline. This gives maintenance
staff additional clues on potential automated valve problems.
Easy control system integration
System connections
HART signal
Two, 2-wire connections attach to the control system to provide
discrete solenoid control and continuous position monitoring.
A standard 24 VDC discrete output (DO) powers and controls
the solenoid valve. Intrinsically safe solenoid pilot may also be
selected. A conventional 4-20 mA analog input (AI) provides
continuous exact valve position feedback into the control system.

HART Modem
The HART communication signal is overlaid on the 4-20 mA
analog position monitoring input. The signal may be read
via internal modem in the DCS system or external modem.
External modems may transmit information to a DCS or to
a remote PC via a hardwired or a wireless connection.
Software integration
Integration to various DCS or asset management systems may
be achieved using open, standardized technologies such as
enhanced EDDL (Electronic Device Description Language) or
FDT/DTM (Field Device Tool/Device Type Manager). Most DCS
vendors use one or both of these technologies, which provides
open access to device intelligence and allows easy use of all
features and benefits available from the Axiom HART device.

Axiom Expeditor
Improve process performance and prevent damage to equipment with intermediate control
With expanded control and monitoring capabilities, the
Flow dampening
Axiom Expeditor offers unparalleled value in batch processing
applications. Below are a few examples of applications where
the Axiom Expeditor may improve your plant operation.
Fill control
Fill tanks and hoppers rapidly and accurately. You can set the
Axiom Expeditor to partially close the valve to reduce flow as
the full level approaches. You get fast, economical “topping
off” of every batch with a single valve sized for high flow rates,
which may be throttled back at the end of the fill cycle.
The Axiom Expeditor allows valves to close using multiple steps,
which inhibits water hammer resulting from a sudden full closure.
You get prolonged valve and piping life, improved process
flow performance and less potential for catastrophic failure.
Thermal shock reduction
By partially opening a standard discrete valve, steam lines
are heated gradually; thus preventing thermal shock. Once
lines are heated, full opening may occur minimizing any
potential damage to steam lines. This is especially critical in
CIP (clean-in-place) and SIP (steam-in-place) applications.
Closed
Partial open
Fill
Top off

Fast, convenient set-up
Calibration may be performed quickly and easily using the
Axiom Expeditor’s readily accessible membrane control pad.
By simply following the on-board instructions, with the unit
powered up, all set-up procedures may be performed in a few
easy steps and the actuator evaluated for proper stroke timing.
During set-up, as mentioned above, the Axiom Expeditor
automatically gages the speed of the actuator to determine if
flow restrictors are needed. If full stroke is less than one second,
flow restrictors (included with each Expeditor from the factory) are
required to assure smooth, consistent intermediate control operation.

will toggle the solenoids to the desired position within ±4% of full
scale.
• A preset intermediate position may be achieved by maintaining
power from the discrete output (DO) and switching on the analog
output (AO) at a preset level between 4 and 20 mA.
• The valve/actuator operates to the fail-safe position whenever the
discrete output (DO) is de-energized.

capabilities.
StoneL’s coordinated visual indicator and LEDs give you an extra
measure of safety and increased convenience during plant start‑up
and operation. Green visual indication and green LED means the
valve is open and the computer circuit is properly operating. Red
visual indication and red LED
means the valve is closed
and the computer is properly
matched. All systems are
functioning properly.
Proximity switches
Mechanical switches
Eliminate seal fittings in
Division 1 and 2 areas
Consolidate your components
and minimize costs
FMus ratings certify the Quartz QX series
with proximity switches for use without
seal fittings in all hazardous areas. By
passing special pressure piling tests, the all
aluminum enclosure was certified for this
elite distinction. Now, a time-consuming
procedure can be safely eliminated
in Division 1 and Division 2 areas.
The Quartz design offers up to three
conduit entries with extra wire terminations.
By terminating solenoid valves in the
switch enclosure, significant savings are
realized by eliminating a junction box,
wiring, conduit materials, and labor.

Hawkeye HK
Hawkeye HK
Nonincendive and intrinsically safe for point sensing
The solid state Hawkeye sensor is ideal for point
sensing in corrosive and hazardous process
environments. The standard red/green LEDs also
speed your setup and installation by confirming
power up and switch status.
Linear applications
Each pair (red and green) of Hawkeye sensors is tuned to
operate independently in either long stroke or short stroke
applications down to 6 mm [¼ inch]. The Hawkeye may be
triggered by existing valve hardware eliminating costly magnets
and triggering systems and cutting installation time.

Features
1. Sensing head triggers on any metal
Inductive sensing technology detects metal targets at distances
up to 4-6 mm, depending on target material.
2. Stainless steel body is rugged and corrosion proof
Hawkeye sensors are machined from 316 stainless steel.
3. Stainless steel washers and fasteners secure Hawkeye
permanently to mount
Adaptor brackets are available in L or straight.
4. Circuit is conformally coated and potted
Hawkeye sensor may be temporarily submersed and electronics
are shock and vibration tolerant.
5. High intensity LED brightly displays switch status
Red and green LEDs may be selected to indicate open or closed.
6. ½” conduit entry or mini-connector available
Choose from a direct conduit entry for hazardous areas or a
plug-in mini-connector for rapid attachment in general purpose
environments.

Compact and modular with integral pneumatic control
The Prism series, designed for
corrosive process environments,
attaches directly to sanitary
diaphragm and angle valves.
This rugged, feature-rich
platform offers a full array of
communication and switching
options, as well as discrete integral
pneumatic control for singleacting valve actuator operation.
Ideally suited for process
environments
Wide variety of switching and
communication options
The Prism features a durable polycarbonate
enclosure suitable for both general purpose
and hazardous process environments. The
integral pneumatic control is completely
isolated within the enclosure on a stainless
steel reinforced polysulfone manifold so
standard tube fittings may be reliably
attached. And the Prism is rated for
nonincendive or intrinsically safe applications.
The Prism features a full range of feedback
options in the fully sealed, solid state
dual module. Select the SST sensors for
conventional switching, NAMUR sensors
for intrinsically safe applications or
communication options including ASInterface, DeviceNet™ and Foundation
Fieldbus. All switching sensor and
communication modules are fully solid
state and sealed for high reliability.
Readily adaptable to linear valves
Stainless steel mounting systems are
available for adapting the Prism to
sanitary and industrial diaphragm, as
well as angle valve applications. Stroke
lengths from as low as ¼” to as long as
2” may be readily accommodated.

ATEX Marking
European requirements centered around the safety of hazardous
area equipment became mandatory on July, 1 2003 (94/9/EC).
ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU superseded 94/9/EC effective April 20,
2016. All equipment exported into European member countries
must meet the ATEX hazardous and essential health and safety
requirements for acceptance.
