— Characterizable analog positioners
Introduction
AV characterizable pneumatic positioners are control devices that satisfy a wide range of applications. They provide fast, sensitive and accurate positioning of pneumatic single- or double-acting, linear or rotary motion actuators. A mechanical connection from the actuator to a position feedback cam in the positioner establishes actual position. Three characterized segments on one cam provide application flexibility by establishing various relationships between input signal and actuator position. The relationships provided by the segments are square root, linear and square.

NOTE: Appendix B provides a quick start guide for the Type
AV positioner. It is intended for control engineers having experience in the use and application of pneumatic position­ers. The quick start guide highlights the major points of instal­lation and calibration. Detailed installation and calibration information is contained in Section 3 and Section 4 respec­tively.

INTENDED USER

DESCRIPTION

The information in this instruction is a guide for technical person­nel responsible for installation, calibration, operation, maintenance and repair of the positioner.
The Type AV1 and Type AV2 positioners are control devices that satisfy a wide range of applications. They provide fast, sensitive and accurate positioning of pneumatic single or double acting actuators.
The Type AV1 positioner receives an external pneumatic signal and converts it to a pneumatic output. The Type AV2 positioner accepts a four to 20-milliamp current that is applied to an I/P (cur­rent to pneumatic) converter, located inside the housing, to gener­ate an internal signal pressure.
If a loss of signal occurs, the Type AV2 positioner goes to the four-milliamp position. The Type AV1 positioner goes to the 3 psi position.
OVERVIEW
1 - 1
INTRODUCTION
A mechanical connection from the actuator (i.e., cylinder, valve, etc.) to the position feedback cam in the positioner establishes actual position. Three characterized segments on the cam provide application flexibility by establishing various relationships between the input signal and the actuator position. The characterized curves on the cam provide:
Square root relationship.
Linear relationship.
Square characteristic.
Using the zero, span and gain adjustments and the cam, the actu­ator can respond with characteristics specific to an application.
An optional manifold assembly provides an integral shutoff and equalizing valve that can be used to isolate the positioner from an actuator, allowing manual override without removing the positioner from the process (required on double acting actuators with manual override). The manifold also provides gage ports and disposable filter cartridges that insure fast servicing and minimum downtime.
An optional gage block provides gage ports for mounting pressure gages. There are three gage ports on the block: One for instru­ment indication (internal input signal) and two for output indication. The gage block does not provide filters or means of isolating the positioner from the actuator. Installation of a supply gage is possi­ble in the supply line (piping by customer).
Both positioners can be equipped with either an optional potentio­metric or a four to 20-milliamp position transmitter that provides additional control features.

Performance Series Option

The Type AV positioner performance series provides a high flow gain pilot valve body by adding a P in the ninth nomenclature posi­tion. This high gain pilot valve body has square ports that provide a maximized air flow for a small motion of the pilot valve stem. A relatively small error signal can therefore cause a relatively large change in output air flow to the actuator. This feature is useful when driving larger actuators that might otherwise be insensitive or slow to respond to small signal changes.
Compared to other positioners on the market, the standard Type AV positioners have a high delivery capacity. The performance series increases this delivery capacity even more. The flow gain curves shown in Figures 1-3 and 1-4 show output air flow versus input error signal for the standard and high gain performance series positioners.
DESCRIPTION 1 - 2

Explosionproof I/P Option

INTRODUCTION
Figures 1-3 and 1-4 show that the large signal maximum air flow for both the standard and performance series positioners is about the same. The performance series positioners achieve maximum flow capacity at a much smaller error signal.
NOTE: ABB does not recommend using a performance series positioner on a small actuator, as it could cause instability.
The Type AV27 positioner employs an explosionproof I/P con­verter that is mounted to an adapter block manifold. The adapter block manifold is bolted to the outside of the main positioner hous­ing. The unit is a Type AV12 positioner with the electric to pneu­matic (four to 20-milliamp to 20.7 to 103.4-kilopascal (3.0 to
15.0-pounds per square inch gage)) conversion occurring within the externally mounted I/P converter.
The four to 20-milliamp input signal wires shall be connected through an explosionproof conduit entrance on the I/P converter. If no electrical connections are made within the main housing, the entire positioner can be considered suitable for application in the hazardous locations shown on the I/P label.

NEMA 4X Option

APPLICATION

FEATURES

Refer to Figure 3-1 for the external and mounting dimensions of the Type A V27 positioner.
The Type A V To maintain the NEMA 4X classification, the positioner shall be installed per drawing C258567 and suitable piping shall be attached to the vent opening and vented in a manner to preclude the entrance of water under pressure, as from a hose. Addition­ally, the conduit connections shall be suitable for a NEMA 4X rat­ing.
The Type A V1 and Type A V2 Characterizable Pneumatic Position­ers control the position of a pneumatic actuator.
Trouble-Free Operation. Proven pilot valve that is quickly
removable, provides less downtime, lower maintenance costs, increased reliability and extended performance.
______N positioner comes with a NEMA 4X housing.
Compact Rugged Design. Die cast aluminum housing,
beam, spring arm, follower arm and 303 stainless steel pilot
APPLICATION

INTRODUCTION
valve provide long life and maximum environmental protec­tion. The compact housing increases mounting flexibility.
Characterizable Output. Large positioning cam can be
shaped to provide desired relationship between the input sig­nal and the actuator position.
Accurate Calibration. Independent zero and span adjust-
ments eliminate interaction and provide fast and accurate cali­bration.
Simplified Reverse Operation. Action can be changed in the
field by changing cams and reversing 01 and 02 connections. The reverse acting cam is conveniently located on the inside of the front cover.
Highly Visible Position Status Indicator. A fluorescent
orange position indicator is visible through a polycarbonate window, providing fast indication of actuator position.
Vent Design Allows Natural Gas Operation. Vent pipe
arrangement permits operation using natural gas.
Split Range Service. Split range capability allows sequencing
of multiple actuators using a single control signal.
Adjustable Gain. Two levels of gain are possible by changing
the hinge springs supplied with the positioner.
Adaptable Usage. The positioner can control both single and
double acting, linear and rotary type actuators.
High Capacity. More than 0.65 cubic meters per minute (23
standard cubic feet per minute) can be supplied or exhausted at 482.6 kilopascals (70.0 pounds per square inch gage) sup­ply pressure (Fig. 1-1).
Continuously Adjustable Span and Zero for Each Stroke
Level. Capable of 100-percent stroke for 50-percent signal span or 50-percent stroke for 100-percent signal span.
Low Air Consumption. Enhanced pilot valve design and
manufacturing technique allows the Type AV positioner maxi­mum performance with minimum air consumption (Fig. 1-2).
Adjustable Speed Control without Additional Hardware.
Speed of actuator can be reduced to desired speed using the pilot valve stroke adjustment screws.

SECTION 2 - DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

This section describes and explains the functional and physical operation of Type AV1 and AV2 positioners. Figure 2-1 diagrams the operating principles of the positioners. Figure 2-2 shows the placement of a positioner in a typical control system.
Figure 2-1. Operation Diagram
Figure 2-2. Block Diagram
INTRODUCTION
2 - 1
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

FUNCTIONAL OPERATION

Type AV positioners operate by balancing opposing forces. Figure
2-1 shows a diagram of the Type AV positioner. A balance beam,
hinged at one end and connected to the pilot valve at the other, is acted upon by two forces:
Upward force of the signal diaphragm assembly.
Downward force from the range spring.
The input signal pressure determines the diaphragm force. The Type AV1 positioner uses an external input pressure (either 20.7 to 103.4 kilopascals (3.0 to 15.0 pounds per square inch gage) or
20.7 to 186.2 kilopascals (3.0 to 27.0 pounds per square inch gage)). The Type AV2 positioner uses a current to pneumatic con­verter to generate the input signal pressure.
The range spring force is a function of the shape and position of the cam. The cam is coupled to the cam shaft that is connected through linkage (or coupling) to the actuator. Therefore, range spring tension is a function of the actuator position.
A change in input signal changes the force exerted by the signal diaphragm, moving the balance beam, in turn moving the pilot valve. The pilot valve supplies and/or exhausts air to the actuator that ultimately changes its position. The change in actuator posi­tion is fed back to the positioning cam. The positioning cam moves, changing the tension of the range spring until a balanced condition once again exists.
The positioner is normally located in a control loop (Fig. 2-2) between the controller and the actuator.
Actuator position is fed back to the positioner for comparison with the position commanded by the input control signal (direct signal pressure or a current value). For linear motion actuators, the feed­back mechanism consists of:
A drive rod that follows the motion of the actuator.
An adjustable-length, swivel-ended connecting link that trans-
mits the motion of the drive rod to an adjustable drive arm on the positioner.
A camshaft and cam that are rotated through an angle by the
drive arm. A function of the cam is to permit characterization of actuator position versus input signal.
FUNCTIONAL OPERATION 2 - 2

INTRODUCTION

SECTION 3 - INSTALLATION

Several applications are possible using a Type AV positioner. The steps for installing a Type AV positioner are in sequence in this section. After installation is complete, refer to Section 4 for calibra­tion information.
Unpack and inspect the equipment.
Mount the positioner.
Connect tubing to the positioner.
Connect wiring to the positioner.
NOTES:
1. For application in a hazardous location, refer to ABB Prod­uct Application Guide, Installing a Type AV Positioner in a Hazardous Location.
2. Appendix B provides a quick start guide for the Type AV positioner. It is intended for control engineers having extensive experience in the use and application of pneumatic positioners. The quick start guide highlights the major points of installation and calibration. Detailed installation and calibration information is contained in this section and in Section 4.
Select an installation method that provides a fail safe mode upon loss of controller signal. Certain installation methods
WARNING

UNP ACKING AND INSPECTION

do not stroke the equipment to a fail safe condition upon loss of controller signal. Failure to select a fail safe installa­tion method could cause injury to personnel and damage to equipment.
1. Check for obvious damage to the shipping carton.
2. Open the carton and remove all loose packing.
3. Carefully remove the positioner from the carton and inspect for any physical damage that may have occurred during shipping.
4. Remove the two cover screws and the positioner cover and examine the interior for any loose components such as nuts, screws, springs, etc. Check the data on the nameplate to be cer­tain the positioner type ordered for the application was received.
INTRODUCTION
3 - 1
INSTALLATION
5. If the positioner is suitable for the application and appears undamaged, install the cover and proceed with the installation instructions.
6. If storing the positioner prior to installation, leave it in the origi­nal carton, if possible. Store in an area free from corrosive vapors and extremes in temperature and humidity.
7. Do not store the positioner in an area that would take it out of the specifications listed in Tables 1-3, 1-4 and 1-5.

ENCLOSURE CLASSIFICATION

The standard enclosure for the Type AV1 and Type AV2 position­ers conform to NEMA 3R when a ½-14 NPT street elbow (Fig. 3-1) is installed into the vent hole on the housing. The elbow prevents water or other liquid from entering the enclosure. The position of the elbow is related to the mounting plane of the positioner in its service location. The elbow must be positioned to face downward. The NEMA 3R version meets the extended corrosion resistance requirements of NEMA 250.
A NEMA 4X version is available as an option (Type AV______N positioners). To maintain the NEMA 4X classification, the posi­tioner shall be installed per drawing C258567 and suitable piping shall be attached to the vent opening and vented in a manner to preclude the entrance of water under pressure, as from a hose. Additionally, the conduit connections shall be suitable for a NEMA 4X rating.

MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS

Choose a location for the positioner based on the following fac­tors:
Access to the internal positioner adjustments — the mounting
location should provide enough room to remove the cover in order to perform calibration and repair and replacement proce­dures inside the positioner. Refer to Figure 3-1 for positioner dimensions. Figure 3-2 shows the electrical connections, Fig­ure 3-3 shows the dimensions of the drive arm connections and Figure 3-4 shows the drive shaft variations.
Allow room for linkage to the actuator — the mounting position
should be such that a practical linkage arrangement can be made between the positioner and the actuator for full range travel.

WARNING
Figure 3-6. Mounting Using Direct Coupling (Typical)
Due to the wide range of applications that the Type AV positioner is suited for, we can only provide general information about mounting. Use the following procedure to mount the positioner.
Before mounting or installing positioner, check nameplate data to make certain positioner is suitable for application desired. DO NOT AT ANY TIME EXCEED THE RATINGS LISTED ON THE NAMEPLATE.
1. Set the actuator at the zero position. Connect the adjustable linkage to the drive arm. The drive arm holes correspond to stroke length of the actuator. Refer to Figure 3-3 for the stroke length for each drive arm hole.
2. Install the cam (black, direct acting; or red, reverse acting) that will provide the required direction of rotation.
A direct acting (black) positioning cam with segments A, B and C (Fig. 3-7) and a reverse acting cam are furnished with each posi­tioner. The reverse acting cam has red radial lines and arcs and is stored on the inside of the positioner cover. Cam A is for a square root function, cam B is for linear motion and cam C is for a

INSTALLATION
square function (Table 3-1). Cam B is in place when the positioner is shipped from the factory. The cams may be shaped to conform to special applications. Refer to Appendix C for information about cam shaping.
NOTE: If the application is reverse acting, the reverse acting cam (red radial lines) must be installed and the connections to ports 01 and 02 must be reversed.

A B C
The cam, camshaft and drive arm rotate as an assembly. Cam motion is 90 degrees (Type AV__2____) or 45 degrees (Type AV__1____) depending on the positioner type specified by nomenclature (Figure 3-7).
Each cam shape (A, B or C) has its own eight-point center hole for mounting on the camshaft (Fig. 3-7). Place the cam in one of the eight 45-degree positions so that the midpoint of the cam corre­sponds to the mid stroke of the actuator. The drive arm should be perpendicular to the motion of the actuator with the actuator at mid stroke.
3. Adjust the connecting linkage so that the zero radial line on the cam intersects the center of the cam roller when the actuator is at its zero position (Fig. 3-8).

Air Supply Filtering

Figure 3-8. Cam Roller Alignment
Type AV positioners are available with (Type AV___1___ and A V___2___) or without (AV___0 ___) manifolds. The following out­lines supply air information and describes the piping connections.
Do not exceed the maximum supply pressure of 1034 kilo­pascals (150 pounds per square inch gage). Exceeding this pressure could cause equipment damage.
The air supply pressure range is 172 to1034 kilopascals (25 to 150 pounds per square inch gage).
NOTE: The minimum supply pressure should be 34.4 kilopas­cals (5 pounds per square inch gage) above the operating pres­sure required by the actuator.
An external filter is recommended for Type AV positioners for pri­mary filtration of the supply air. ABB provides supply air filters as accessories. Refer to Table 1-12 for part numbers.
NOTE: Primary air supply filters are recommended for position­ers with a manifold (AV___1/2___), without a manifold (AV___0___) or with a gage block (AV___3___).
TUBING CONNECTIONS 3 - 8
Positioners equipped with manifolds have three secondary filters as part of the unit. If the filters become clogged, they can be cleaned (by removing and reverse flushing with air or liquid) or replaced (refer to Table 1-7 for kit number). Refer to Section 7 for manifold filter replacement procedures.

Air Supply Quality (Recommended)

For long-term, trouble free operation, it is recommended that the supply air be of instrument quality and conform to the ANSI/ ISA-7.0.01-1996 standard that includes the following:
INSTALLATION

Tubing Connections

The pressure dew point as measured at the dryer outlet shall
be at least 10 which any part of the instrument air system is exposed. The pressure dew point shall not exceed 4 sure.
The oil content should be as close to zero as possible and,
under no circumstances, shall it exceed one (1) ppm w/w or v/v.
Instrument air should be free of corrosive contaminants and
hazardous gases, which could be drawn into the instrument air supply.
In addition, the particle size in the supply line should not be greater that 3.0 microns.

INSTALLATION
2. Based on the positioner type, perform one of the following steps (Fig. 3-9):
AV11 or AV15: Connect 20.7 to 103.4-kPa (3.0 to 15.0-psig) instrument signal to connection I.
AV12 or AV16: Connect 20.7 to 186.2-kPa (3.0 to 27.0-psig) instrument signal to connection I.
AV2: Connection I is not used and should be plugged. If it is not plugged, do so at this time.
3. Connect the output ports 01 and 02 as required to provide the desired direction of rotation. Figures 3-10, 3-11, 3-12 and 3-13 show single acting tubing examples, and Figure 3-14 shows a double acting tubing example. Air pressure to the 01 port increases from zero toward full supply as the control signal (error) increases. Air pressure to the 02 port decreases from full supply toward zero as the control signal increases.
NOTE: The tubing arrangements shown in Figures 3-10, 3-11,
3-12, 3-13 and 3-14 are typical examples and may not reflect the
arrangement required for the application.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE

Most electronic equipment is influenced by radio frequency inter­ference (RFI). Caution should be exercised with regard to the use of portable communications equipment in the area.
ABB recommends posting appropriate signs in the plant. Refer to the Site Planning and Preparation instruction for additional infor­mation on RFI.

WIRING REQUIREMENTS

Under ideal conditions, the use of conduit and shielded wire may not be required. However, to avoid noise problems, it is recom­mended that wiring be enclosed in conduit. Just prior to entering the housing, rigid conduit should be terminated and a short length of flexible conduit should be installed to reduce any stress.

Troubleshooting calibration.
NOTES:
1. All procedures in this section assume direct acting opera­tion.
2. The troubleshooting calibration procedure in this section is not required for normal operation. The procedure is used only when operating difficulties occur. The corrective action column of Table 6-1 indicates when to use the troubleshooting calibration.
3. Calibration can also involve cam shaping to achieve the required control characteristics. Refer to Appendix C for detailed information about the cam.

Mechanical linkage is performed during installation (Section 3) that normally consists of adjusting the connection between the positioner and actuator so that the mechanical zero on the posi­tioning cam corresponds to the mechanical zero of the actuator. The calibration procedure detailed here involves fine adjustments to the zero and span such that the input signal will cause the desired travel.
Calibration consists of applying an input signal pressure to the positioner to set the zero and span. These adjustments are made with the supply air applied to the positioner.
Type AV positioners have position transmitter options that are available for feedback purposes. Refer to Appendix A for more information about the position transmitter options.
The positioner zero adjustment sets the tension on the range spring and adjusts the input signal level that causes the actuator to move off of the minimum travel stop. The zero percent radial line of the cam should align with the center of the cam roller (Fig.
4-2).
INTRODUCTION

CALIBRATION
Use the following steps to adjust the zero:
1. Depending on the nomenclature type, apply one of the follow­ing input signals:
T ype AV1
T ype AV2
20.7 kPa (3.0 psig) input signal pressure. The actuator should move to its fully closed position.
4.0 mA input signal. The actuator should move to its fully closed position.
2. To adjust the zero, loosen the zero adjustment set screw (Fig.
4-1) with the -inch Allen wrench.
3. Turn the zero adjustment nut (clockwise moves the actuator toward minimum span) until the zero radial line on the cam inter­sects with the center of the cam roller (Fig. 4-2).
NOTE: This adjustment may be biased; i.e., turning the zero adjustment nut slightly clockwise to make sure a valve or damper is firmly seated at the minimum input signal.
4. Tighten the zero adjustment set screw.

Setting the span normally requires the alignment of the 100 per­cent radial line of the cam with the center of the cam roller.
Use the following steps to adjust the span:
1. Depending on the nomenclature type, apply one of the follow­ing input signals:
Apply 103.4 kPa (15.0 psig). The actuator should move to its fully opened position.
Apply 186.2 kPa (27.0 psig). The actuator should move to its fully opened position.
Apply 20 mA. The actuator should move to its fully opened position.
2. To adjust the span, loosen the span adjustment screw (Fig.

CALIBRATION FOR PARTICULAR APPLICATION

The following positioner adjustments may be used to tailor the operation of the actuator to meet application requirements.
CALIBRATION FOR PARTICULAR APPLICATION

CALIBRATION

Zero Adjustment

The positioner zero adjustment can be used to set initial tension on the range spring so that the actuator will not begin to move from its minimum position until it receives an input signal between zero and 50 percent (Fig. 4-3). This application of suppression is useful when two or more actuators are to be operated in sequence; where the actuator is equipped with a minimum stop; or where the characteristics of the device that the actuator is moving must be matched with the characteristics of another regulated device.

Span Adjustment

Figure 4-3. Zero Adjustment Graph
The span adjustment affords a variation of actuator motion for a given span of input signal. For example, the span may be adjusted to allow full actuator travel to occur with a signal change as small as 50 percent of its full span (e.g., split ranging) (Fig. 4-4). At the other extreme, the span adjustment can be set to produce as little as 50 percent of the travel capability of the actuator over the full input signal pressure span (e.g., short stroking).
This flexibility in span adjustment is useful when the device being regulated is oversized, since the adjustment allows operation of the actuator or cylinder through its useful motion for desired full change in control signal pressure. It is also useful in matching the signal versus position characteristics of the actuator or cylinder with the characteristics of related power devices in the same con­trol system.

GAIN AND SPEED ADJUSTMENTS

Figure 4-4. Span Adjustment Graph

Gain Adjustment

Gain and speed adjustment information applies to both the Type AV1 and Type AV2 positioners. This is the gain of the overall posi­tioner. The factory-installed 0.25-millimeter (0.100-inch) gain hinge spring suits most applications. This adjustment is not a mandatory part of calibration.
Gain adjustment on the Type AV positioners is accomplished by changing the gain hinge spring (Item 7, Figs. 9-3 or 9-4) connect­ing the beam assembly to the positioner housing. Provided with each positioner are two different gain hinge springs. If actuator oscillation occurs, the overall positioner gain may be too high. Positioner gain is related to the thickness of the gain hinge spring. Gain decreases as the thickness of the gain hinge spring increases. Refer to Table 4-1 for hinge information.
For information on changing the gain hinge spring, refer to Gain
Hinge Spring in Section 8.

CALIBRATION

Speed Adjustment

Speed adjustment is not normally required when calibrating a positioner. Type AV positioners come from the factory adjusted for maximum operating speed. However, the speed of operation can be reduced in two ways. Speed control orifices can be used to slow positioner operation or a speed adjustment can be made internal to the positioner to change operating speed.
When the system involves only a single actuator, a high position­ing speed is usually an advantage. However, in a complex control system, it is generally desirable to operate all power devices at the same speed in order to avoid interaction between units and con­sequently undesirable process conditions.
ORIFICE
If it is necessary to reduce the speed of operation, 1.02-millimeter (0.04-inch) speed control orifices are available as an option from ABB. These orifices are installed directly into the output ports (01 and 02) of the positioner and have ¼-NPT ports for connecting tubing from the actuator. If these orifices are too small (causing the actuator to respond too slowly) they may be drilled out to obtain desired speed control. Blank orifices are also available. Refer to Table 1-9 for orifice part numbers.
PILOT VALVE STROKE ADJUSTMENT
If it is necessary to reduce the speed of operation, a pilot valve stroke adjustment can reduce the speed and does not require additional hardware. This adjustment limits the pilot valve stroke.
The pilot valve stroke is measured by the movement (displace­ment) of the pilot valve stem, as shown in Figure 4-5. Figure 4-5 shows the maximum stroke length that is also the maximum speed of operation and is how the positioner comes from the fac­tory. Use the following procedure to reduce the speed of opera­tion:
NOTE: Never adjust the pilot valve for a stroke greater than
0.762 millimeters (0.030 inches) in either direction. A greater stroke will reduce the performance of the positioners.
1. Use a -inch Allen wrench to turn the top adjustment screw clockwise -turn to reduce stroke time (Fig. 4-6). ABB suggests

-turn increments. Take note of the number of turns. In total, do not exceed one full turn (clockwise) from the factory setting (Fig.

2. Use a -inch Allen wrench (the wrench must be at least 5-inches long) to turn the lower adjustment screw clockwise the same amount as the top adjustment screw to insure speed of operation is the same in both directions (if desired). Be careful when accessing the lower adjustment screw. Insert the Allen wrench up through the bottom of the range spring (Fig. 4-6). This adjustment controls the amount of air going to port 02.
NOTE: To adjust the pilot valve stroke to the factory setting, refer to PILOT VALVE STROKE ADJUSTMENT in Section 8.

TROUBLESHOOTING CALIBRATION ADJUSTMENTS

The I/P converter of the Type AV2 positioner comes from the fac­tory completely calibrated. Use the following procedures only when operating difficulties occur. The corrective action column of Table 6-1 indicates when to use the troubleshooting calibration.
The purpose of this procedure is to adjust the I/P converter so that a four to 20-milliamp input signal will produce a 20.7 to 103.4-kilo­pascal (3.0 to 15.0-pounds per square inch gage) signal. Use the following procedure to adjust the I/P converter. The supply air must be connected to the positioner for this procedure.
Tools Required:
CAUTION
Digital voltmeter.
Calibrated 0 to 30-psig instrument gage.
Small screwdriver.
Current source.
Do not exceed the maximum supply pressure of 1034 kilo­pascals (150 pounds per square inch gage). Exceeding this pressure could cause equipment damage.
1. Connect the calibrated zero to 30-psig instrument gage or other accurate pressure measuring device to the I port to monitor the signal pressure during calibration.
2. Turn on the supply air to the positioner.
3. Provide a four-mA signal to the I/P converter and observe the output pressure. If the pressure equals 20.7 kPa (3.0 psig) go to Step 5. If the pressure does not equal 20.7 kPa (3.0 psig) go to Step 4.
4. Adjust the zero screw 0  on the bottom of the I/P con- verter (Fig. 4-7) until the output pressure equals 20.7 kPa (3.0 psig). Clockwise rotation increases pressure.
5. Apply a 20-mA signal to the I/P converter and observe the out­put pressure. If the pressure equals 103.4 kPa (15.0 psig) go to Step 7. If the pressure does not equal 103.4 kPa (15.0 psig) go to Step 6.
6. Adjust the span screw ( on the bottom of the I/P con- verter (Fig. 4-7) until the output pressure equals 103.4 kPa (15.0 psig). Clockwise rotation increases pressure.
7. Repeat Steps 3 through 6 until the 20.7 kPa (3.0 psig) and
103.4 kPa (15.0 psig) outputs are attained with four and 20-mA signal inputs.

INTRODUCTION

This section details the equalizing valve of the optional manifold (Type AV___ 1___ positioner).
NOTE: This section only applies when the positioner is equipped with a manifold assembly.

EQUALIZING AND AIR SUPPLY SHUTOFF VALVE

The equalizing valve, supplied with the manifold assembly, allows the actuator to be manually or automatically operated. By turning the valve handle to MAN, supply pressure to the positioner is cut off and the 01 and 02 ports are tied together, allowing manual repositioning of the actuator.
NOTE: It is important to understand that the equalizing valve is not a bypass valve. Be aware that if the actuator is not secured before transferring the valve handle of the manifold, the actuator will move.
Lock the actuator in place or be aware of the possible move-

ment before moving the equalizing valve to MAN or AUTO. Failure to do so could result in injury to personnel.

Transfer from Automatic to Manual Operation

1. Manually lock the actuator or final control element.
2. If equipped with a manifold and equalizing valve, push in the valve handle and turn it to the MAN position.
3. If not equipped with a manifold and equalizing valve, turn off the supply air.
NOTE: If there are no means of locking the actuator or final con­trol element, it will move in the direction of the process or mechanical load when the supply air is turned off.

Transfer from Manual to Automatic Operation

1. Verify that the valve handle is in the MAN position.

OPERATING PROCEDURES
2. If the manual operator does not lock the actuator in position:
a. The piston must be positioned from prior knowledge of the actuator position versus signal or the actuator may jump when transferred to automatic.
b. Push the valve handle in and turn it to the AUTO position.
3. If the manual operator locks the actuator in position:
a. Depress the valve handle and turn it to the AUTO position. The actuator will oppose the manual operator if the drive posi­tion and input signal do not correspond.
b. Manually operate the actuator until the load on the man­ual operator decreases. If the output pressure gages are installed on the positioner, the gage readings should equalize.
NOTE: If, in Step 3, it is desired that the drive stay in its initial position, the input signal must be adjusted to correspond with the drive position as indicated by the load on the manual opera­tor, output pressure gages or prior knowledge of position versus input signal.

APPENDIX A - POSITION TRANSMITTERS

INTRODUCTION

This appendix provides operation and calibration information for ABB position transmitter options. Refer to Table 1-4 (potentiomet­ric position transmitter) or Table 1-5 (four to 20-milliamp position transmitter) for position transmitter performance specifications. A position transmitter provides additional control features to T ype AV positioners and can be ordered through nomenclature.
Position transmitters sense the position of the positioner cam shaft. Two variations exist:
Potentiometric option (AV ____1__).
4 to 20-milliamp option (AV____ 2__ ).

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Position transmitters are available as options (order through nomenclature).
The Type AV_ _ _ _ 1 _ _ potentiometric position transmitter option uses a high durability plastic film potentiometer. Gears connect the potentiometer to the positioner cam shaft. The position of the potentiometer shaft indicates the position of the actuator.
The relationship between the potentiometer and the cam shaft results in one degree of rotation of the cam shaft corresponding to approximately 9.9 ohms of resistive change at the potentiometer wiper. Three leads from the potentiometer are for customer use and are available at terminals TB1-1, TB1-2 and TB1-3.
The Type AV option also uses a high durability plastic film potentiometer and electronic circuitry. Gears connect the potentiometer shaft to the positioner cam shaft. The resistive change of the potentiometer outputs to a bridge circuit, producing a proportional voltage. EMI/ RFI protected circuitry converts the bridge voltage to a four to 20-milliamp current signal. Terminals TB1-1 (+) and TB1-2 (-) of the Type AV positioner provide customer access to the four to 20-milliamp control signal. Jumper position determines direct or reverse acting operation. Test jacks are available for in-line cur­rent monitoring.

and TB1-2 refer to the output signal from the four to 20-milli­amp position transmitter.
Direct acting cam rotation of zero to 100 percent produces increasing resistance between terminal block TB1-1 and TB1-2. Reverse acting cam rotation of zero to 100 percent produces decreasing resistance between TB1-1 and TB1-2.
CALIBRATION A - 2
POSITION TRANSMITTERS
The resistive change of the potentiometer is approximately 9.9 ohms (nominal) per degree of cam rotation, with a total resistance of 2000 ohms (nominal).
Application of the potentiometric option must consider the possibil­ity of end resistance wrap-around.
POTENTIOMETRIC APPLICA TION EXAMPLE
A customer has a Type AV positioner with a 90-degree, direct act­ing cam, potentiometric position transmitter, along with a 24-VDC supply . The customer wishes to output a five-VDC signal when the Type AV positioner output is 80 percent.
1. Determine the angular rotation of 80% of 90.
0.80 x 90 = 72
72 of cam rotation is 80% of 90.
2. Determine the resistive change of the potentiometer through 72 of rotation. For every degree of rotation the resistive change is
9.9 (nominally):
72 x 9.9 = 712.8
The change of resistance for this rotation is 712.8 , and appears between TB1-1 and TB1-2.
3. To guard against wrap-around, the minimum resistance at the potentiometer wiper at zero percent cam rotation is set to 200 . Therefore, the resistance between TB1-1 and TB1-2 should vary between 200 and 912.8 (712.8 + 200 = 912.8) for a cam rotation of zero to 80%.
4. Determine the required current in the potentiometer that develops 5 VDC at the wiper at 80%:
5 VDC 912.8 = 5.48 mA
5. Determine the nominal voltage to produce 5.48 mA across the potentiometer:
5.48 mA x 2000 = 10.96 VDC
6. Determine the dropping resistor value that reduces the supply voltage to 10.96 VDC:
24.00 10.96 VDC

1. Move the actuator to the 0% output position.
2. Remove the field wiring from TB1-1, TB1-2 and TB1-3. Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between TB1-1 and TB1-2. If the reading is 200, 20 , remove the ohmmeter and proceed to Step 3. Otherwise continue with Step 2.
The pneumatic supply pressure must be turned off before removing the positioning cam. The final control element will go to one end of the stroke and can cause a process upset. Some process upsets may cause damage to equipment and endanger personnel.
a. Remove the cam by removing the screw, flag, nut and washer (Fig. A-3 and Table A-1).
b. Loosen the set screw on the hub of the small gear using a

7. Adjust the zero potentiometer to 4.00 mA. Refer to Figure A-4 for the location of the zero potentiometer.
8. Move the actuator to the 100% position. Adjust the span potentiometer to 20.00 mA. Refer to Figure A-4 for the location of the span potentiometer.
9. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 until the indicated current readings are obtained.

MOUNTING THE POSITIONER

Install the positioner as required on the actuator. Figures B-1 and
B-2 show typical mounting arrangements. Use the following pro-
cedure for mounting guidelines.
NOTE: If the actuator is equipped with a Type AV positioner as ordered, verify that all the connections are secure and make any adjustments as required.
1. Set the actuator at the zero position. Connect the adjustable link­age to the drive arm. The drive arm holes correspond to stroke length of the actuator. Refer to Figure B-3 for the stroke length for each drive arm hole.
2. Install the cam (black, direct acting; or red, reverse acting) that will provide the required direction of rotation.
NOTE: Cams have three mounting holes: A, square root; B, linear; C, square. Each mounting hole is star shaped so the cam can be rotated in 45 increments to suit the application.
3. With the actuator in the closed position, adjust the connecting linkage so that the zero radial line on the cam intersects the center of the cam roller (Fig. B-4).
4. Lock all linkage components in place.
