9. REVERSE-ACTING

AND SPLIT-RANGE

Reverse-Acting
For reverse-action operation, invert cam. Also reverse connections C1
and C2. For single-acting actuators, move actuator connection from
C2 to C1 and plug C1.

Split-Range
For split-range, reposition the cam, noting the markings on the cam:
for 4-12 mA, use initial 50% zone; for 12-20 mA, use 51–100% zone.

10. DAMPERS

The standard built-in dampers (5) located on the connecting block
provide a simple means of adjusting the actuator travel speed.

For maximum actuator travel speed, dampers shall be adjusted to
minimum damping position.

Double-Acting Actuators – Adjust only OUTLET damper; set SUPPLY
damper in minimum damping position.

Single-Acting Actuators – Adjust both dampers for desired operation.

11. I/P UNIT, PM15E

I/P unit is mounted directly on top of the positioner unit. No external
air supply is needed since the I/P unit is supplied with air from the
positioner unit.

The I/P unit is equipped with a built-in 30 micron filter (Figure 4).

CAUTION: Do not operate the unit without filter and filter plug
installed. Do not unscrew filter plug when the positioner is
pressurized.

Span and zero for the I/P converter is factory set and should not
require adjustment.

I/P Calibration
Check I/P output by connecting gauge to port P.

Adjust Zero on screw 2.

Adjust Span on screw 1.
