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.

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.)

2-3 Installation Procedure
2-3-1 Mounting the 700 Series onto the Actuator
The device is a smart valve positioner for use with a control valve that uses a directacting or rotary actuator. The main unit of the device weighs approximately 4.2 kg.
The basic mounting procedure is the same as that for conventional electropneumatic
positioners.
Cautions
Be careful not to get injured by sharp parts such as the edge of the main unit or actuator
or screw threads during mounting.
The type of mounting plate, mounting method, and mounting procedure differ depending
on the actuator model to be mounted in the device.
If the device is not properly mounted, not only will the device not be able to operate at its
true performance but it may be damaged or fail. Pay attention to the following points.
- The mounting plate and its accessories differ depending on the specifications
(actuator model). Be sure to use the appropriate mounting plate and accessories for
the actuator to be mounted.
- When installing the control valve, ensure as much surrounding space as possible
and put the device in the correct orientation taking maintainability (such as piping,
wiring, and adjustment) into consideration.
- Deliver the device to the installation location in the packaged state if possible.
- Do not apply excessive force to the feedback lever during mounting.
- Do not bend the feedback pin.
- Do not block the exhaust port located underneath.
-
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.”

• 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.

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.

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.

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.

7) Mounting procedure
The procedure for connecting pneumatic piping to operate the device is shown below.
StepWork
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
3After 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.
