Appendix 5. Position Adjustment of

Feedback Lever

For Single Acting Type, it is possible to adjust the

position of feedback lever while air is being supplied

to the actuator.

WARNING

Procedures (1) through (4) require supplying air

to the actuator. Piping must be carried out

by following the instructions shown in Chapter 4.

"Wiring and Piping".

(1) Using a flat-head screwdriver, turn the A/M

selector switch on the YVP110 clockwise to

change the selector position to M (manual). Be

sure to turn the switch until it stops (see also

Section 3.2.3, “A/M Switching”).

WARNING

Changing the A/M selector switch position to M

(manual) causes air at the pressure setting of the

pressure regulator for air supply to be supplied to

the valve actuator regardless of the input signal.

Therefore, prior to switching to manual mode,

make sure that doing so will neither cause an

injury nor affect the process.

(2) Next, supply air to the valve actuator. Doing so

causes the valve stem to move; be extremely

careful about safety. Adjust the pressure

regulator to set the stroke of the stem to 50%.

WARNING

Do not supply air at a pressure exceeding

the maximum rated air supply pressure of

the actuator or the YVP110 (400 kPa). Doing

so may result in a high risk of damage to the

equipment or lead to an accident.

(3) Check that the feedback lever is at around the

horizontal level. If its incline deviates from the

horizontal level by 15 degrees or more, shut off

the air supply for safety. Then, after confirming

that the air has been completely exhausted out

of the actuator, readjust the clamp position.

(4) After the incline from the horizontal level has

been adjusted to within ±15 degrees, shut off

the air supply and turn the A/M selector switch

counterclockwise until it stops, to change the

selector position to A (automatic). (See also

Section 3.2.3, “A/M Switching”).
