Introduction
Thank you for purchasing our AVP702 Smart Valve Positioner. The AVP702 (called “the device” below) is a smart valve positioner that can be connected to the 4 to 20 mA loop.
The auto setup function makes it easy to set up the valve.
All adjustments and setup can be performed from the HART communication. The Local User Interface (LUI), which consists of the LCD (liquid crystal display) and operation buttons, facilitates monitoring of input signals, valve opening, pressure display, and other items as well as basic adjustments.
In addition, the built-in pressure sensor can be used to measure the supply air pressure and output air pressure. As a result, the device can not only perform self-diagnostics but can also be combined with the control valve maintenance support system called “Valstaff” in order to monitor the characteristics, operating status, and other data of the control valve, helping to improve the maintenance efficiency of control valves. This instruction manual describes how to handle the device. Read this manual to make full use of the features of this product.

Chapter 1 Structure of the 700 Series Control System

This chapter describes the device configuration of the control system that uses the device.
• Description of the configuration of the input/output system in the device
• Description of the structure of the main unit of the device and the name and function of
each part

1-1 System Configuration

This device is a smart valve positioner that can be connected to the 4–20 mA DC signal lines of the controller output. It makes various adjustments using electricity, so the relationship between input signals and control valve travel can be set to any desired value. In addition, by connecting the device using four lines, the control valve travel is transmitted to the host monitoring system as a 4–20 mA DC analog signal. (Only the AVP701 model supports valve travel transmission.)

Install the device so that the electrical conduit connection port does not face upward.
- Securely tighten bolts.
- If the model KZ03 pressure regulator with filter is installed with the device, install with the drain of the KZ03 facing downward. If the KZ03 cannot be attached vertically (with the drain facing downward), install it separated from the AVP with the proper orientation.
- In order to avoid the possibility of rainwater entering the pressure gauge, install the gauge such that it does not face upward or downward. In addition, the pressure gauge has a rainwater drain on its underside, so install the gauge with this hole facing downward.
- If you install this device with the LCD facing upwards, use the LCD cover and pressure gauge elbows as necessary, depending on the circumstances. For details, refer to 6) below, “Installing the device with the LCD facing upwards.”

Figure 2-7 Angle between Feedback Lever and Pin
- Mount the lever so that it is horizontal when opened by 50%.
- The allowable rotation angle of the feedback lever is horizontal ± 30°. If the angle exceeds ±30°, the self-diagnostic function detects Valve Travel Detector Out of Range and the device will not operate normally. (The accuracy is guaranteed when the rotation angle is between ±4° and ±20°.)
Figure 2-8 Operation Angle of Feedback Lever
- When assembling the lever onto a rotary cylinder so that the shaft of the rotary cylinder is positioned between the feedback pin and the 700 Series as shown in the figure below, select Rotary/90° (for 90°) or Rotary/other (for angles other than 90°) as the Actuator Type according to the rotation angle.

6) Installing the device with the LCD facing upwards
If you install the device with the LCD facing upwards, use the accessories below as required depending on the circumstances. (Refer to 6-9, “Resale Parts.”)
• LCD cover (material: silicone rubber)
This cover reduces deterioration of the LCD due to sunlight (ultraviolet radiation). Use the cover if the device is used in a place with strong sunlight (outdoors, etc.).
Cautions
Before mounting or removing the LCD cover, it is necessary to remove the face cover from the main unit. Take care as you work not to touch sharp parts of the face cover, such as the rim. You might be injured.
Handling Precautions:
Remove the face cover when checking the LCD.
• Pressure gauge elbows The elbows are for mounting the pressure gauges if the device is installed in a place with direct exposure to rainwater (outdoors, etc.). (If the pressure gauges are installed facing upward, they will be damaged by rainwater.

2-3-2 Pneumatic Piping Connection

Supply air
This section describes how to supply the air for the device to drive the actuator.
1) Air supply system
Supply air must be clean and dry to stably use the device for a long time. A typical example of an air supply system is shown in the figure below.
Shutoff
valve
Regulator
with filter
Supply air piping
Output air
piping
Figure 2-14 Air Supply System
2) Supply air
Use supply air that conforms to the instrumentation air standards (on page 2-2).
3) Regulator with filter
• The regulator with filter is used to adjust the pressure of the supply air to the device.
• Install this valve as close to the main unit of the device as possible.
• The control valve can be manually operated by using the A/M switching function. (The double-acting actuator does not support manual operation.)
Use a 3-μm or finer filter.
• The filter removes solid materials from supply air.
If the filter is not equipped, separately insert a (3-μm or finer) filter immediately before the regulator.
• Install the regulator so that the drain faces downward.
• If you select the built-in Azbil regulator KZ03, the filter is built into the device before shipment.
4) Shutoff valve
• The shutoff valve is used to temporarily stop supplying air to the device.
• With this valve, the device or control valve can be removed without having to stop the whole air supply system during maintenance or other operations.
2-12
5) Piping
Output air connection port (OUT1)
Supply air connection port (SUP)
Rc1/4 or 1/4NPT
• Use piping with an inside diameter of 6 mm.
• When using the device in a corrosive atmosphere, select piping appropriate to the environment of the installation location. For example, you may use the vinyl-coated copper pipe.
• To prevent air leaks, be sure to use a fitting that is appropriate for the pipe.
6) Connection positions
The positions of the supply air connection port and output air connection port are shown in the figure below. Select the dimensions of the connection port screws according to the specifications.
Rc1/4 or 1/4NPT
Handling Precautions:
Output air connection port (OUT2)
(For double-acting actuator)
Figure 2-15 Pneumatic Piping Connection
When connecting the electromagnetic valve for emergency shutoff, air valve, or other part, install it between the output air connection and the actuator rather than the supply air connection side of the device.
2-13
7) Mounting procedure
The procedure for connecting pneumatic piping to operate the device is shown below.
Step Work
Connect the joint for piping to the connection port using seal tape.
Handling Precautions:
1
- Use seal tape as the seal material. Avoid using solid or liquid seal material if possible.
- Do not let the seal tape get in the piping.
- If you do use a liquid seal, make sure that no drops of the seal material get in the piping.
Connect the supply and output pipes to each joint in consideration of the arrangement of the piping.
Handling Precautions:
- For the double-acting actuator, the connection between output air connection ports OUT1 and
2
3 After all piping is complete, make sure that air does not leak.
OUT2 and the actuator is determined by the valve operation. Check the valve operation before connecting pipes.
- Sufficiently flush piping before connection to prevent burrs on the piping or other foreign objects from getting in the piping.
- Keep the output air piping as short as possible.
