Introduction

Scope of Manual

This instruction manual provides installation,
operation, maintenance, and parts ordering
information for the Type i2P-100 transducer (see
figure 1). Refer to separate manuals for instructions
covering equipment used with the transducer.

No person may install, operate or maintain a Type
i2P-100 electro-pneumatic transducer without
first D being fully trained and qualified in valve,
actuator and accessory installation, operation and
maintenance, and D carefully reading and
understanding the contents of this manual. If you
have any questions about these instructions, contact
your Fisher sales office.

Description

The transducer, shown in figure 3, receives a 4 to 20
milliampere dc input signal and transmits a
proportional user field-configurable pneumatic output
pressure to a final control element. The pneumatic
output ranges are typically 0.2 to 1.0 bar (3 to 15
psig) and 0.4 to 2.0 bar (6 to 30 psig). A typical
application is in electronic control loops where the
final control element is a control valve assembly that
is pneumatically operated. The input signal and
output pressure range of the transducer is indicated
on the nameplate, attached to the housing.

CAUTION

Dropping or rough handling of the
transducer can cause damage to the
converter module resulting in a shifted
output or a minimum output.

Installation

The i2P-100 transducer has been designed and
approved for use with either air or natural gas as the
supply medium. In normal operation the unit will vent
the supply medium into the surrounding atmosphere
unless it is remotely vented. When using natural gas
as the supply medium in a non-hazardous location,
remote venting of the unit is required. Failure to do
so could result in personal injury, property damage,
and area re-classification. For hazardous locations
remote venting of the unit may be required,
depending upon the area classification, and as
specified by the requirements of local, regional, and
federal codes, rules and regulations. Failure to do so
when necessary could result in personal injury,
property damage, and area re-classification.

WARNING

To avoid personal injury or property
damage from the sudden release of
pressure:

D Always wear protective clothing

and eyewear when performing any
installation operations.

D If installing into an existing

application, also refer to the WARNING
at the beginning of the Maintenance
section of this instruction manual.

D Check with your process or safety

engineer for any additional measures
that must be taken to protect against
process media.

WARNING

This unit vents the supply medium into
the surrounding atmosphere. When
installing this unit in a non-hazardous
location with natural gas as the supply
medium, you must remotely vent this
unit to a safe location. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury or
property damage from fire or
explosion, and area re-classification.

When installing this unit in a
hazardous location remote venting of
the unit may be required, depending
upon the area classification, and as
specified by the requirements of local,
regional, and federal codes, rules and
regulations. Failure to do so when
necessary could result in personal
injury or property damage from fire or
explosion, and area re-classification.

Vent line piping should comply with
local and regional codes and should

be as short as possible with adequate
inside diameter and few bends to
reduce case pressure buildup.

Mounting

When a transducer is ordered as part of a control
valve assembly, the factory mounts the transducer
on the actuator and connects the necessary tubing,
then adjusts the transducer as specified on the
order. See figure 3 and 4 for typical mounting
configurations.

Transducers also can be ordered separately for
mounting on a control valve assembly already in
service, or for mounting on a 2-inch diameter
pipestand, or a flat surface. The transducer may be
ordered either with or without mounting parts.

Mounting parts include a mounting plate and bolts
and, if ordered for pipestand mounting, a pipe clamp.
Tubing is not included if the transducer is not factory
mounted. Use 0.375 inch diameter tubing for all
input and output connections. The length of tubing
