1. Minimum or maximum span, or any span in between, may be positioned anywhere within the operating range. For example, if a 0 to 30 psig (0 to 2 bar) sensing element is used
and the minimum span of 15 psig (1 bar) is set, the process indication can be calibrated to a range of –30 inch Hg to 0 psig (–1 to 0 bar), 0 to 15 psig (0 to 1 bar), 15 to 30 psig (1 to 2
bar), 27 to 42 psig (2 to 3 bar) or any value between the operating range minimum and maxi mum values.
2. Travel stops should be used when the maximum or minimum process pressure will be 5% over or under the calibrated range. For example, a 0 to 30 psig (0 to 2 bar) sensing
element is calibrated for 10 to 30 psig (0.7 to 2 bar), the desired range. The minimum expected pressure is 0 psig and the maximum expected pressure is 40 psig (2.8 bar). Travel
stops must be used to prevent excessive overtravel and undertravel since the maximum allowable overpressure and underpressure is higher than 5% of the 20 psig (1.4 bar) span
which is ±1 psig (70 mbar).
3. Bourdon tube without travel stops may be pressured to this value without permanent zero shift.
4. Bourdon tube with travel stops set may be pressured to this value without permanent zero shift.

Installation
Controller Mounting Orientation
Mount the controller with the housing vertical, as
shown in figure 2–1, so the vent points down.
Pipestand Mounting
Refer to figure 2–2. Pipestand mounting parts are provided to mount the controller to a 2-inch (nominal)
pipe. Attach a bracket (key 68) to the controller with
cap screws (key 66) and lock washers (key 67). Attach
two clamps (key 69) to the bracket and fasten the controller to the pipe.
Panel Mounting
Using the dimensions shown in figure 2–3, cut a hole
in the panel surface. Slide the controller into the hole
and attach the bracket (key 68) to the rear of the controller using three cap screws (key 66) and lock washers (key 67). Tighten the screws (key 70) to seat the
case snugly and evenly against the panel surface.

If the tubing is to run through the wall, drill a hole in
the wall large enough to accept the tubing.
Mount the controller to the bracket using three cap
screws (key 66) and lock washers (key 67). Attach the
bracket to the wall, using suitable screws or bolts.
Actuator Mounting
Refer to figure 2–1. A controller specified for mounting
on a control valve actuator is mounted at the factory. If
the controller is ordered separately for installation on a
control valve actuator, mount the unit as described in
this section. Mounting parts vary for different actuator
types.
Attach the mounting bracket to the actuator yoke with
cap screws, lock washers, and spacer spools. Attach
the controller to the bracket with cap screws, lock
washers, and spacer spools. On some designs, the
mounting bracket is attached to the actuator casing
rather than to the yoke.
To avoid personal injury or property
damage resulting from the sudden release of pressure, do not install any system component where service conditions could exceed the limits given in
this manual. Use pressure-relieving devices as required by government or accepted industry codes and good enginnering practices.
Refer to figure 2–5 for pressure connection locations.
Supply, output, remote set point, external feedback,
and vent connections are 1/4-inch NPT, female. Process pressure connections are 1/4- or 1/2-inch NPT
(optional). Use 1/4-inch or 3/8-inch pipe or tubing for
supply, output, remote set point, and external feedback connections.
Process Pressure Connection
The connection marked A on the bottom of the case is
the process input for all Bourdon tube controllers and
those capsular element controllers used in vacuum
pressure applications. The connection marked B is the
process input for capsular element controllers used in
positive pressure and compound pressure applications. See figure 2–5 for the location of the A and B
connections.

When installing process piping, follow accepted practices to ensure accurate transmission of the process
pressure to the controller. Install a three-valve bypass,
shutoff valves, vents, drains, or seal systems as needed in the process pressure lines. If necessary, install a
needle valve in a process pressure sensing line to
dampen pulsations.
If the instrument is located such that the adjacent process pressure lines are approximately horizontal, the
lines should slope downward to the instrument for liquid-filled lines and upward toward the instrument for
gas-filled lines. This reduces the possibility of air becoming trapped in the sensor with liquid-filled lines or
of condensation becoming trapped in gas-filled lines.
The recommended slope is 1 inch per foot (83 millimeters per m).
If the controller is being used in conjunction with a
control valve to control pipeline pressure, connect the
process pressure line in a straight section of pipe
approximately 10 pipe diameters away from the valve
and also away from bends, elbows, and areas of abnormal fluid velocities. For pressure-reducing service,
the process pressure line must be connected downstream of the control valve. For pressure-relief service,
the process pressure line must be connected upstream of the control valve.

WARNING
Personal injury or property damage may
occur from an uncontrolled process if
the supply medium is not clean, dry, oilfree, or a non-corrosive gas. Industry
instrument air quality standards describe acceptable dirt, oil, and moisture
content. Due to the variability in nature
of the problems these influences can
have on pneumatic equipment, Fisher
Controls has no technical basis to recommend the level of filtration equipment
required to prevent performance degradation of pneumatic equipment. A filter
or filter regulator capable of removing
particles 40 microns in diameter should
suffice for most applications. Use of
suitable filtration equipment and the establishment of a maintenance cycle to
monitor its operation is recommended.
Supply pressure must be clean, dry air or noncorrosive
gas that meets the requirements of ISA Standard
S7.3-1975 (R1981). Use a suitable supply pressure
regulator to reduce the supply pressure source to the
normal operating supply pressure shown in table 1–6.
Connect supply pressure to the SUPPLY connection
on the bottom of the case, shown in figure 2–5.
Remote Set Point (suffix letter M)
Pressure Connection
If the controller has remote set point (suffix letter M),
connect the remote set point pressure to the top of the
controller case at the location shown in figure 2–5.
Use clean, dry air or noncorrosive gas. Use a 3 to 15
psig (0.2 to 1.0 bar) remote set point pressure range
for a 3 to 15 psig (0.2 to 1.0 bar) controller output signal range or a 6 to 30 psig (0.4 to 2.0 bar) remote set
point pressure range for a 6 to 30 psig (0.4 to 2.0 bar)
controller output signal range. If pressure is supplied
to the remote set point connection with a regulator, a
small bleed orifice should be placed between the regulator and remote set point connection to prevent pressure variations due to regulator lock-up.

4195KA, KB, and KC Series
External Feedback Pressure Connection
(4195KB Series Controllers Only)
When a secondary controller in an override application
has this option, reset windup is minimized in the secondary controller. Connect the external feedback connection of the secondary controller to the output of the
customer-supplied high or low select relay (see figures
2–5 and 4–9).
Vent
WARNING
If a flammable, toxic, or reactive gas is
to be used as the supply pressure medium, personal injury and property damage could result from fire or explosion
of accumulated gas or from contact with
a toxic or reactive gas. The controller
case and cover assembly do not form a
gas-tight seal, and when the assembly
is enclosed, a remote vent line, adequate ventilation, and necessary safety
measures should be used. However, a
remote vent pipe alone cannot be relied
upon to remove all hazardous gas. 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.
CAUTION
When installing a remote vent pipe, take
care not to over-tighten the pipe in the
vent connection. Excessive torque will
damage the threads in the connection.
If a remote vent is required, the vent line must be as
short as possible with a minimum number of bends
and elbows. Vent line piping should have a minimum
inside diameter of 3/4 inches (19 mm) for runs up to
20 feet (6.1 meters) and a minimum inside diameter of
1 inch (25 mm) for runs from 20 to 100 feet (6.1 to
30.5 meters).
The vent must be protected against the entrance of
any foreign material that could plug it; or if a remote
vent is not required, the vent opening in the case must
be protected against the entrance of any foreign material that could plug it. Check the vent periodically to be
certain it is not plugged.

Adjustments for 4195KA Series
Controllers
This section includes descriptions of adjustments and
procedures for prestartup, startup, and calibration. Adjustment locations are shown in figures 3–1 and 3–3.
To better understand the adjustments and overall controller operation, refer to the principle of operation section and the schematic diagrams in figures 3–4 and
3–5. Unless otherwise noted, key numbers given in
this section are found in figure 5–24.
Manual Set Point Adjustment
Adjust the set point by moving the set point indicator
until the line on the set point indicator is over the desired value on the process pressure scale. Move the
indicator to the right to increase the set point and to
the left to decrease it. Adjusting the set point does not
affect the proportional band setting.
If the controller is equipped with the optional internal or
external set point adjustment, turn the adjustment
CAUTION
Do not manually move the set point indicator on controllers with remote set
point. Manually moving the set point indicator could damage the controller.
If the controller is equipped with remote set point (suffix letter M), vary the remote set point pressure to
change the set point. Increase the pressure to increase the set point, and decrease the pressure to
decrease the set point.
Proportional Band Adjustment (PB ADJ)
The proportional band determines the controller output
sensitivity. The proportional band adjustment is
marked in percentages of process pressure required
to drive the controller from zero output to full output.
To adjust the proportional band, open the controller
cover and locate the proportional band adjustment (PB
ADJ) knob. Rotate the knob until the desired value is
opposite the line on the proportional band indicator
cover.

Changing Controller Action
To change the controller action from direct to reverse
or vice versa, loosen the screws on the proportional
band indicator cover. Lift the cover out as shown in
figure 3–2 and rotate the proportional band adjustment
to the desired action. Setting the proportional band to
the values in the white portion of the adjustment provides direct controller action; setting porportional band
in the black portion provides reverse controller action.
Bourdon Tube or Capsular Element Controllers for
Positive or Compound Pressure
For direct control action:
An increasing sensed pressure increases output pressure.
For reverse control action:
An increasing sensed pressure decreases output pressure.
Capsular Element Controllers for Vacuum Pressure
For direct control action:
An increasing sensed vacuum increases output pressure.
For reverse control action:
An increasing sensed vacuum decreases output pressure.
After changing the action, tighten the screws on the
proportional band indicator cover.

(4195KA Series Controllers)
Switching The Auto/Manual Station
(suffix letter E)
CAUTION
Switching the controller between automatic and manual mode without balancing can disturb the process and cause
controller cycling.
Refer to figure 3–1 if the controller has the auto/manual station (suffix letter E). To switch from automatic to
manual mode, or from manual to automatic, you must
first balance the manual output with the controller output. Two balance methods are available to equalize
the manual output with the controller output.
To switch from automatic to manual mode, carefully
adjust the loader knob until the metal ball inside the
plastic tube moves into the switching zone. Then
move the automatic/manual switch to MANUAL. Turn
the loader knob clockwise to increase the controller
output or counterclockwise to decrease it.
To switch from manual to automatic mode, adjust the
set point to move the ball into the switching zone. Turn
the switch to AUTO and adjust the set point to control
the output.
When the auto/manual switch is in AUTO, adjusting
the loader knob has no effect on the controller output.
When the auto/manual switch is in MANUAL, changing
the set point has no effect on the controller output.
Prestartup Checks for 4195KA Series
Controllers
Refer to figure 3–1 for adjustment locations and refer
to figure 5–24 for key number locations.
When performing the checks, open loop conditions
must exist. An open loop exists when the controller
output does not affect the input pressure or other control signal to the controller.
Note
If the controller has the auto/manual station (suffix letter E), be sure the controller is in the automatic mode before performing the prestartup checks.
1. Provide a means of measuring the controller output
pressure by connecting the controller output to a pressure gauge. Connect supply pressure to the supply
pressure regulator and be sure it is delivering the
proper supply pressure to the controller. Do not exceed the normal operating pressure in table 1–6.
2. For a controller with remote set point (suffix letter
M), connect regulated pressure of 3 to 15 psig (0.2 to
3–2
4195KA, KB, and KC Series
1.0 bar) or 6 to 30 psig (0.4 to 2.1 bar) to the remote
set point connection at the top of the controller case.
3. Remove the two machine screws (key 6) and lift off
the proportional band indicator cover (key 36).
4. Adjust the set point a minimum of 20 percent of
input span above the process pointer.
5. Adjust the proportional band for 5 percent DIRECT.
6. If necessary, connect a pressure source to the process connection and adjust the process pointer to the
last mark on the left side of the scale. If the last scale
mark is 0 psig, a pressure source is not required.
7. The controller output pressure should be 0 psig.
8. Rotate the proportional band to 5 percent REVERSE.
9. The controller output should be within 2 psig (0.14
bar) of the supply pressure.
10. If the controller output is within tolerance, adjust
the proportional band to 400 percent in the desired
action, secure the proportional band indicator cover
(key 36) with the machine screws (key 6), and go to
the startup procedure. If the controller output pressure
is not within tolerance, go to the 4195KA Series calibration procedure for recalibration.
3. Set the proportional band adjustment to 100 percent for fast processes. For slow processes, calculate
the proportional band percentage from the equation
below:
P.B.
For example:
4. Create a load upset by momentarily changing the
set point. Check for system cycling. If the system does
not cycle, lower the proportional band setting (thus
raising the gain) and disturb the system again by
changing the set point. Continue this procedure until
the system cycles. At this point, double the proportional band setting (proportional band setting ×2).
5. Check the stability of the recommended proportional band setting by introducing a disturbance and monitoring the process.

Calibration of 4195KA Series Controllers
General Calibration Instructions
Note
Startup for 4195KA Series Controllers
Perform the prestartup checks and, if necessary, calibrate the controller prior to this procedure.
Note
When performing the startup procedures, keep in mind that the initial settings are guidelines. They will vary depending on the actual process being
controlled.
1. Be sure the supply pressure regulator is delivering
the proper supply pressure to the controller.
2. For controllers with:
Manual set point:
Move the set point adjustment to the desired set point.
Remote set point:
a. See figure 2–5 for the location of the remote set
point connection. Connect an adjustable pressure
source to the remote set point connection.
b. Adjust the pressure source until the set point
indicator reaches the desired set point. Remember:
Increasing the remote set point pressure increases
the set point.
If the controller has the auto/manual station (suffix letter E), be sure the controller is in the automatic mode before performing calibration.
If the prestartup checks, or startup, reveal faulty controller operation, perform the calibration described in
this section. These instructions are valid for either
shop or field calibration, provided that open process
loop conditions exist. Unless otherwise noted, key
numbers are found in figure 5–24.
Do not use the gauges supplied with the controller during calibration. Monitor process pressure, supply pressure, controller output pressure, and if applicable, remote set point pressure with external gauges.
Process Indicator Zero and Span
Calibration
Before starting this procedure:
Provide a regulated process pressure to the controller and a means of measurement external to the
controller.
Provide a means of measuring the controller output pressure by connecting the controller output to a
pressure gauge (open loop conditions must exist).
Provide a regulated supply pressure to the controller.
Do not exceed the normal operating pressure in table
1–6.
3–3
4195KA, KB, and KC Series
Refer to figures 3–1 and 3–3 for adjustment locations.
Note
Any change to the process pointer span
adjustment will require readjustment of
the process pointer zero adjustment.
1. Remove the two screws (key 6) and lift off the proportional band indicator cover (key 36).
2. Set the proportional band between DIRECT and
REVERSE.
3. Apply process pressure equal to the process scale
span lower limit.
4. The process pointer should indicate the process
scale lower limit. If not, adjust the process pointer to
the process scale lower limit by loosening the zero
adjustment locking screw and turning the zero adjustment screw. Tighten the zero adjustment locking
screw.
5. Apply process pressure equal to the process scale
span upper limit.
6. The process pointer should indicate the process
scale upper limit. If not, adjust the span screw to correct one-half of the error as follows: clockwise to increase span for a low indication (below the upper limit); counterclockwise to decrease span for a high
indication (above the upper limit).
7. Repeat steps 3 through 6 until the error is eliminated.
8. Apply process pressure equal to the mid-scale value of the process scale span. The process pointer
should indicate the mid-scale mark, ±2 percent of
span. If the error is greater than ±2 percent, refer to
the Maintenance section and perform the appropriate
zero and span adjustment procedure for a Bourdon
tube or capsular element controller.
9. Adjust the process pointer to within ±1 percent of
the mid-scale mark by loosening the locking screw and
turning the zero adjustment screw. This distributes the
error over the entire scale span and brings all points
within ±1 percent of the process input span.
10. Apply process pressure equal to the process
scale span lower limit.
11. The process pointer should indicate the process
scale lower limit ±1 percent of the scale span.
12. Apply process pressure equal to the process
scale span upper limit.
13. The process pointer should indicate the process
scale upper limit ±1 percent of the scale span.
14. If the error is greater than ±1 percent, repeat
steps 3 through 13.
Remote Set Point (suffix letter M) Zero
and Span Calibration
Refer to figures 3–1 and 3–3 for adjustment locations.
Refer to figure 5–24 for key number locations.
Note
Any adjustment of the remote set point
span adjustment screw requires readjustment of the remote set point zero
adjustment screw.
1. Remove the two screws (key 6) and lift off the proportional band indicator cover (key 36).
2. Set the proportional band between DIRECT and
REVERSE.
3. Apply remote set point pressure equal to the lower
range limit.
4. The set point indicator should indicate the process
scale lower limit. If not, loosen the remote set point
zero adjustment locking screw and adjust the remote
set point zero adjustment screw until the set point indicator aligns with the process scale lower limit. Tighten
the zero adjustment locking screw.
5. Apply remote set point pressure equal to the upper
range limit.
6. The set point indicator should indicate the process
scale upper limit. If not, adjust the remote set point
span adjustment screw to correct one-half the error as
follows: clockwise to increase span for a low indication; counterclockwise to decrease span for a high indication.
7. Repeat steps 3 through 6 until the error is eliminated.
8. Apply remote set point pressure equal to the midrange value.
9. Make sure the set point indicator is within ±1 percent of the mid-scale mark and if so, proceed to step
12. If the set point indicator is not within 1 percent, but
is within ±2 percent of the mid-scale mark, then proceed with step 10. If the set point indicator is not within
±2 percent, proceed to the remote set point calibration
procedure in the Maintenance section.
10. Loosen the remote set point zero adjustment locking screw and adjust the remote set point zero ajustment screw to correct for half the error at mid-scale.
Tighten the zero adjustment locking screw.
11. Apply remote set point pressure equal to the lower and upper range limits and make sure the set point
indicator is within ±1 percent.
12. If necessary, perform the process indicator zero
and span calibration procedure in this section. Otherwise, perform the flapper alignment procedure in this
section.

Flapper Alignment
Note
Perform the process indicator zero and
span calibration procedure and, for controllers with remote set point (suffix letter M), the remote set point zero and
span calibration procedure before the
flapper alignment.
Flapper leveling screw numbers and adjustments are
shown in figure 3–3. Key number locations are shown
in figure 5–24.
Provide a means of measuring the controller output
pressure by connecting the controller output to a pressure gauge (open-loop conditions must exist). Provide
a regulated supply pressure to the controller. Do not
exceed the normal operating pressure in table 1–6.
After performing the flapper alignment procedure, go
to the startup procedure.
1. For a controller with manual set point, move the set
point indicator to the mid-scale mark on the process
scale. For a controller with remote set point (suffix letter M), adjust the remote set point pressure until the
set point indicator is at the mid-scale mark on the process scale.
2. Apply process pressure equal to the mid-scale value of the process scale span. If pressure is not available to pressure the input element to the mid-scale
value, an alternate method is to disconnect link number 1 at the input element and tape the process pointer at the mid-scale mark on the process scale. If the
controller has a capsular input element, note the hole
from which link number 1 was removed for proper replacement. This method should only be used if pressure is not available to pressure the input element to
the mid-scale value.
3. Remove the two machine screws (key 6) and lift off
the proportional band indicator cover (key 36).
4. Adjust the proportional band between DIRECT and
REVERSE.
5. The controller output should be 9 ±0.10 psig (0.62
±0.007 bar) for a 3 to 15 psig (0.2 to 1.0 bar) output or
18 ±0.2 psig (1.2 ±0.01 bar) for a 6 to 30 psig (0.4 to
2.0 bar) output. If not, adjust flapper leveling screw 2
(the screw nearest the nozzle) until the output is within
tolerance.
6. Set the proportional band to 30 percent DIRECT.
7. The controller output should be 9 ±0.25 psig (0.62
±0.02 bar) or 18 ±0.5 psig (1.2 ±0.04 bar). If not, ad-
just flapper leveling screw 3 (the screw nearest the
nozzle).
8. Set the proportional band to 30 percent REVERSE.
9. The controller output should be 9 ±0.25 psig (0.62
±0.02 bar) or 18 ±0.5 psig (1.2 ±0.04 bar). If not, ad-
just flapper leveling screw 1 (the screw nearest the
nozzle).
10. Repeat steps 4 through 9 until the controller output remains in tolerance without further leveling screw
adjustments.
11. If link 1 was disconnected, remove the tape and
reconnect link 1 to the input element.
12. Set the proportional band to 400 percent in the
desired controller action and replace the proportional
band indicator cover.
Principle of Operation for 4195KA Series
Controllers
Overall Operation
Refer to the schematic diagram in figure 3–4.
The input element is connected to the process pointer
and to the flapper by connecting links. As the process
pressure increases (in a direct-acting controller), the
flapper moves toward the nozzle, restricting flow
through the nozzle and increasing nozzle pressure.
When this occurs, relay action increases the output
pressure (delivery) of the controller. Output pressure is
fed back to the proportional bellows. The action of the
proportional bellows counteracts the flapper movement that resulted from the process pressure change
and backs the flapper away from the nozzle until equilibrium is reached.
Moving the set point indicator changes the distance
between the nozzle and flapper as does a change in
process pressure, except that when the set point is
changed, the nozzle moves with respect to the flapper.
The proportional band adjustment positions the nozzle
on the flapper. Increasing (widening) the proportional
band moves the nozzle to a position on the flapper
where less input and more feedback motion occurs,
which decreases the gain of the controller. Decreasing
(narrowing) the proportional band moves the nozzle
toward a position where more input and less feedback
motion occurs, which increases the gain. The controller action is changed from direct to reverse by turning
the proportional band adjustment to position the
nozzle on the flapper quadrant to a point where the
direction of the flapper motion versus input motion is
reversed as shown in the flapper detail of figure 3–4.
With the controller in the reverse-acting mode, an increase in process pressure causes a decrease in output pressure.

A control pressure is applied to the capsular element
within the remote set point assembly. The expansion
and contraction of the capsule moves the set point
adjustment via a connecting linkage. Increasing the
control pressure to the capsule increases the set point
setting and decreasing the control pressure reduces
the set point setting.
Auto/Manual Station (suffix letter E)
Operation
A controller with the auto/manual station (designated
by the suffix letter E in the type number) has piping on
the output side of the relay as shown in figure 3–5.
Supply pressure to the relay is also applied to the
manual loader. The manual loader, functioning as a
regulator, applies pressure to one side of the plastic
tube and to the auto/manual switch. Output pressure
from the relay registers on the other side of the plastic
tube as well as in the auto/manual switch.
When the auto/manual switch is in the MANUAL position, the manual loader output is channeled through
the auto/manual switch and becomes the controller
output. When the auto/manual switch is in the AUTO
position, the relay output is channeled through the
switch to become the controller output.
Before the auto/manual switch is operated, the relay
output must equal the manual loader output to avoid
bumping the process. Adjusting the set point varies
the pressure on the left-hand side of the plastic tube.
Adjusting the manual loader knob varies the pressure
on the right-hand side. When the pressures are equal,
the metal ball is centered in the tube and it is held in
place by a small magnet. A pressure imbalance forces
the ball to one end of the tube where it forms a seal,
blocking air flow through the tube.

Adjustments for 4195KB and KC Series
Controllers
This section includes descriptions of adjustments and
procedures for prestartup, startup, and calibration. Adjustment locations are shown in figures 4–1 and 4–3.
To better understand the adjustments and overall controller operation, refer to the principle of operation section and to the schematic diagrams in figures 4–5
through 4–9. Unless otherwise noted, key numbers
given in this section are found in figure 5–24.
Manual Set Point Adjustment
Adjust the set point by opening the controller cover
and moving the set point indicator until the line on theset point indicator is over the desired value on the process pressure scale. Move the indicator to the right to
increase the set point and to the left to decrease it.
Adjusting the set point does not affect the proportional
band setting.
If the controller is equipped with the optional internal or
external set point adjustment, turn the adjustment
knob clockwise to increase the process set point and
counterclockwise to decrease the process set point.
Remote Set Point (suffix letter M)
Adjustment
CAUTION
Do not manually move the set point indicator on a controller with remote set
point. Manually moving the set point indicator could damage the controller.
If the controller is equipped with remote set point (suffix letter M), vary the remote set point pressure to
change the set point. Increase the pressure to increase the set point and decrease the pressure to decrease the set point.
Proportional Band Adjustment (PB ADJ)
The proportional band determines the controller output
sensitivity. The proportional band adjustment is
4–1
4195KA, KB, and KC Series
W3439 / IL
marked in percentages of process pressure required
to drive the controller from zero output to full output.
To adjust the proportional band, open the controller
cover and locate the proportional band adjustment (PB
ADJ) knob. Rotate the knob until the desired value is
opposite the line on the proportional band indicator
cover.
Changing Controller Action
To change the controller action from direct to reverse
or vice versa, loosen the screws on the proportional
band indicator cover. Lift the cover out as shown in
figure 4–2 and rotate the proportional band adjustment
to the desired action. Setting the proportional band to
the values in the white portion of the adjustment provides direct controller action; setting proportional band
in the black portion provides reverse controller action.
Figure
4–2. Changing Controller Action
(4195KB and KC Series Controllers)
An increasing sensed vacuum decreases output pressure.
After changing the action, tighten the screws on the
proportional band indicator cover.
Reset Adjustment
To adjust reset, open the controller cover and locate
the RESET adjustment. Rotate the adjustment clockwise to decrease the minutes per repeat or counterclockwise to increase the minutes per repeat. Increasing the minutes per repeat provides a slower reset
action.
Rate Adjustment
To adjust rate, open the controller cover and locate
the RATE adjustment. Rotate the adjustment clockwise to decrease the minutes (less rate action) or
counterclockwise to increase the minutes (more rate
action).
Anti-Reset Windup (suffix letter F)
Adjustment
If the arrow on the relief valve points toward the bottom of the controller case, as shown in figure 4–1, the
valve opens with increasing controller output pressure.
If the arrow points in the opposite direction, the relief
valve opens with decreasing controller output pressure. Differential relief pressure is factory set at 5 psig
(0.3 bar). Maximum relief pressure is 7 psig (0.5 bar).
The minimum is 2 psig (0.1 bar).
Turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise to increase
differential relief pressure, clockwise to decrease it.

CAUTION
Switching the controller between automatic and manual mode without balancing can disturb the process and cause
controller cycling.
Refer to figure 4–1 if the controller has the auto/manual station (suffix letter E). To switch from automatic to
manual mode, or from manual to automatic, you must
first balance the manual output with the controller output. Two balance methods are available to equalize
the manual output with the controller output.
To switch from automatic to manual mode, carefully
adjust the loader knob until the metal ball inside the
plastic tube moves into the switching zone. Then
move the automatic/manual switch to MANUAL. Turn
the loader knob clockwise to increase the controller
output or counterclockwise to decrease it.
4195KA, KB, and KC Series
To switch from manual to automatic mode, adjust the
set point to move the ball into the switching zone. Turn
the switch to AUTO and adjust the set point to control
the output.
When the automatic/manual switch is in AUTO, adjusting the loader knob has no effect on the controller output. When the automatic/manual switch is in MANUAL, changing the set point has no effect on the
controller output.
Prestartup Checks for 4195KB and KC
Series Controllers
Refer to figure 4–1 for adjustment locations, and refer
to figure 5–24 for key number locations.
When performing the checks, open loop conditions
must exist. An open loop exists when the controller
output does not affect the input pressure or other control signal to the controller.
Note
If the controller has the auto/manual station (suffix letter E), be sure the controller is in the automatic mode before performing prestartup checks. If the
controller has the external feedback option, connect the controller output connection to the external feedback connection (see figure 2–5). Adjust the
controller for full output pressure and
with the RESET knob adjusted to 0.01
minutes/repeat, verify the tubing connections do not leak. Disconnect after
completing the prestartup checks.
1. Provide a means of measuring the controller output
pressure by connecting the controller output to a pressure gauge. Connect supply pressure to the supply
pressure regulator and be sure it is delivering the
proper supply pressure to the controller. Do not exceed the normal operating pressure in table 1–6.
2. For a controller with remote set point (suffix letter
M), connect regulated pressure of 3 to 15 psig (0.2 to
1.0 bar) or 6 to 30 psig (0.4 to 2.1 bar) to the remote
set point connection at the top of the controller case.
3. Remove the two machine screws (key 6) and lift off
the proportional band indicator cover (key 36).
4. Adjust the set point a minimum of 20 percent of
input span above the process pointer.
5. Turn the reset adjustment to 0.01 minutes per repeat.
6. Turn the rate adjustment to OFF (4195KC Series).
7. Adjust the proportional band for 5 percent DIRECT.
8. If necessary, connect a pressure source to the process connection and adjust the process pointer to the
last mark on the left side of the scale. If the last scale
mark is 0 psig, a pressure source is not required.
9. The controller output pressure should be 0 psig.
10. Rotate the proportional band to 5 percent REVERSE.
11. The controller output should be within 2 psig (0.14
bar) of the supply pressure.
12. If the controller output is within tolerance, adjust
the proportional band to 400 percent in the desired
action. Secure the proportional band indicator cover
(key 36) with the machine screws (key 6), and go to
the startup procedure. If the controller output pressure
is not within tolerance, go to the 4195KB and KC Series calibration procedure for recalibration.
Startup for 4195KB and KC Series
Controllers
Perform the prestartup checks and, if necessary, calibrate the controller prior to this procedure.
Note
When performing the startup procedures, keep in mind that the initial settings are guidelines. They will vary depending on the actual process being
controlled.
1. Be sure the supply pressure regulator is delivering
the proper supply pressure to the controller.
2. For controllers with:
Manual set point:
Move the set point indicator to the desired set point.
Remote set point:
a. See figure 2–5 for the location of the remote set
point connection. Connect an adjustable pressure
source to the remote set point connection.
b. Adjust the pressure source until the set point
indicator reaches the desired set point. Remember:
Increasing the remote set point pressure increases
the set point.
3. Set the reset adjustment to 0.05 minutes per repeat for fast processes. Set it to 0.5 minutes per repeat for slow processes. For controllers with rate, set
the rate adjustment to OFF.
4. Set the proportional band to 100 percent for fast
processes. For slow processes, calculate the proportional band percentage from the equation below:
For example:
4–3
4195KA, KB, and KC Series
P.B.
5. If the controller is used in conjunction with a control
valve, return the control valve to service by slowly
opening the upstream and downstream manual control
valves in the pipeline. Close the manual bypass valve,
if one is used.
6. Tune the various controller actions.
Tuning proportional action: Create a load upset by
momentarily changing the set point. Check for system
cycling. If the system does not cycle, lower the proportional band setting (thus raising the gain) and disturb
the system again by changing the set point. Continue
this procedure until the system cycles. At this point,
double the proportional band setting (proportional
band setting ×2).
Tuning reset action: Disturb the system. If the system does not cycle, speed up the reset by changing
the setting to a lower value (faster reset). Disturb the
system again. Continue this procedure until the system cycles. When the system cycles, multiply the reset time setting by a factor of three (reset setting ×3)
and slow down the reset by changing the reset setting
to the higher value. The reset is now tuned.

Calibration of 4195KB and KC Series
Controllers
General Calibration Instructions
Note
If the controller has the auto/manual station (suffix letter E), be sure the controller is in the automatic mode before performing calibration.
If the prestartup checks, or startup, reveal faulty controller operation, perform the calibration described in
this section. These instructions are valid for either
shop or field calibration, provided that open loop conditions exist. Unless otherwise noted, key numbers are
found in figure 5–24.
Do not use the gauges supplied with the controller during calibration. Monitor process pressure, supply pressure, controller output pressure, and if applicable, remote set point pressure with external gauges.
Process Indicator Zero and Span
Calibration
Before starting this procedure:
Provide a regulated process pressure to the controller and a means of measurement external to the
controller.
Tuning rate action: For a controller with rate
(4195KC Series), adjust the rate toward the higher
setting until cycling occurs. When the system cycles,
divide the rate value by a factor of three (rate setting
÷3) and decrease the rate by changing the setting to
the lower value. The rate is now tuned.
7. Check the stability of the recommended proportional band setting by introducing a disturbance and monitoring the process.
8. Once stable control is attained, the process pointer
and set point indicator should be in line. If they are
aligned, return the set point to the desired value. If
they are not, readjust the set point to the desired control point and proceed with step 9.
9. If the process pointer is within 5 percent of the set
point indicator, turn the link 3 adjustment (see figure
5–13 or 5–21 for location) until the process pointer
aligns with the set point indicator. Turn the link 3 adjustment screw clockwise to increase the process indication or counterclockwise to decrease it. If the process pointer is misaligned with the set point indicator
by more than 5 percent of the scale span, perform the
calibration procedures for 4195KB and KC Series controllers.
Provide a means of measuring the controller output pressure by connecting the controller output to a
pressure gauge (open-loop conditions must exist).
Provide a regulated supply pressure to the controller.
Do not exceed the normal operating pressure in table
1–6.
Refer to figures 4–1 and 4–3 for adjustment locations.
Note
Any change to the process pointer span
adjustment will require readjustment of
the process pointer zero adjustment.
1. Remove the two screws (key 6) and lift off the proportional band indicator cover (key 36).
2. Set the proportional band between DIRECT and
REVERSE.
3. Apply process pressure equal to the process scale
span lower limit.
4. The process pointer should indicate the process
scale lower limit. If not, adjust the process pointer to
the process scale lower limit by loosening the zero
adjustment locking screw and turning the zero adjustment screw. Tighten the zero adjustment locking
screw.

5. Apply process pressure equal to the process scale
span upper limit.
6. The process pointer should indicate the process
scale upper limit. If not, adjust the process pointer
span screw to correct one-half the error as follows:
clockwise to increase span for a low indication (below
the upper limit); counterclockwise to decrease span for
a high indication (above the upper limit).
7. Repeat steps 3 through 6 until the error is eliminated.
8. Apply process pressure equal to the mid-scale value on the process scale span. The process pointer
should indicate the mid-scale mark, ±2 percent of
span. If the error is greater than ±2 percent, refer to
the Maintenance section and perform the appropriate
zero and span adjustment procedure for Bourdon tube
or capsular element controllers.
9. Adjust the process pointer to within ±1 percent of
the mid-scale mark by loosening the zero adjustment
locking screw and turning the zero adjustment screw.
This distributes the error over the entire scale range
and brings all points within ±1 percent of the process
scale span.
10. Apply process pressure equal to the process
scale lower limit.
11. The process pointer should indicate the process
scale lower limit ±1 percent of the scale span.
12. Apply process pressure equal to the process
scale upper limit.
13. The process pointer should indicate the process
scale upper limit ±1 percent of the process scale span.
14. If the error is greater than ±1 percent, repeat
steps 3 through 13.

Refer to figures 4–1 and 4–3 for adjustment locations.
Refer to figure 5–24 for key number locations.
4. The set point indicator should indicate the process

zero adjustment locking screw and adjust the remote
set point zero adjustment screw until the set point indicator aligns with the process scale lower limit. Tighten
the zero adjustment locking screw.
5. Apply remote set point pressure equal to the upper
range limit.
6. The set point indicator should indicate the process
scale upper limit. If not, adjust the remote set point
span adjustment screw to correct one-half the error as
follows: clockwise to increase span for a low indication; counterclockwise to decease span for a high indication.
7. Repeat steps 3 through 6 until the error is eliminated.
8. Adjust the remote set point pressure to the midrange value.
9. Make sure the set point indicator is within ±1 percent of the mid-scale mark, and if so, proceed to step
12. If the set point indicator is not within 1 percent, but
is within ±2 percent of the mid-scale mark, proceed
with step 10. If the set point indicator is not within ±2
percent, proceed to the remote set point zero and
span adjustment procedure in the Maintenance section.
10. Loosen the remote set point zero adjustment locking screw and adjust the remote set point zero adjustment screw to correct for half the error at mid scale.
Tighten the zero adjustment locking screw.
11. Apply remote set point pressure equal to the lower and upper range limits and make sure the set point
indicator is within ±1 percent.
12. If necessary, perform the process indicator zero
and span calibration procedure in this section. Otherwise, perform the flapper alignment procedure in this
section.
Flapper Alignment
Note
Note
Any adjustment of the remote set point
span adjustment screw requires readjustment of the remote set point zero
adjustment screw.
1. Remove the two screws (key 6) and lift off the proportional band indicator cover (key 36).
2. Set the proportional band between DIRECT and
REVERSE.
3. Apply remote set point pressure equal to the lower
range limit.
4–6
Perform the process indicator zero and
span calibration procedure and, for controllers with remote set point (suffix letter M), the remote set point zero and
span calibration procedure before the
flapper alignment.
Flapper leveling screw numbers and adjustments are
shown in figure 4–3. Key number locations are shown
in figure 5–24.
Provide a means of measuring the controller output
pressure by connecting the controller output to a pressure gauge (open-loop conditions must exist). Do not
apply supply pressure at this time.
4195KA, KB, and KC Series
Note
4195KB and KC Series controllers with
anti-reset windup (suffix letter F) are
supplied with two O-rings (key 52), valve
cover (key 51), and two machine screws
(key 53). Use these parts in the next
step.
1. For controllers with anti-reset windup (suffix letter
F), record the direction of the arrow on the anti-reset
windup relief valve (key 55). Remove the relief valve
and install the two O-rings (key 52) and valve cover
(key 51) supplied with the controller. Secure the valve
cover with the two machine screws (key 53) provided.
2. If necessary, remove the two machine screws (key
6) and lift off the proportional band indicator cover (key
36).
3. If the controller has the external feedback option
(available with the 4195KB Series only), connect the
controller output to the external feedback connection.
See figure 2–5 for the location of the output and external feedback connections.
4. Provide regulated supply pressure to the controller.
Do not exceed the normal operating pressure in table
1–6.
5. For a controller with manual set point, move the set
point indicator to the mid-scale mark on the process
scale. For a controller with remote set point (suffix letter M), adjust the remote set point pressure until the
set point indicator is at the mid-scale mark on the process scale.
6. Set the reset adjustment to 0.01 minutes per repeat.
7. If the controller has rate (4195KC Series), turn the
rate adjustment to OFF.
8. Apply process pressure equal to the mid-scale value of the process scale span. If pressure is not available to pressure the input element to mid-scale value,
an alternate method is to disconnect link number 1 at
the input element and tape the process pointer at midscale mark on the process scale. If the controller has a
capsular input element, note the hole where link number 1 is connected to the input element, then disconnect link 1. This method should only be used if pressure is not available to pressure the input element to
the mid-scale value.
Note
Because of the high controller gain, the
controller output will not remain stable
in steps 9 through 13. The controller
output gauge is adequate to check the
output pressure during this procedure.
9. Set the proportional band between DIRECT and
REVERSE.
10. The controller output should be relatively stable at
any value within the output range. If not, adjust flapper
leveling screw 2 (the screw nearest the nozzle) until
the output is relatively stable.
11. Set the proportional band to 30 percent DIRECT.
The controller output should be relatively stable at any
value within the output range. If not, adjust flapper leveling screw 3 (the screw nearest the nozzle) until the
output is relatively stable.
12. Set the proportional band to 30 percent REVERSE. The controller output should be relatively
stable at any value within the output range. If not, adjust flapper leveling screw 1 (the screw nearest the
nozzle) until the output is relatively stable.
13. Repeat steps 9 through 12 until the controller output remains relatively stable without further flapper
leveling screw adjustment.
Note
Steps 14 through 20 check the flapper
alignment.
14. Set the proportional band to 30 percent DIRECT.
15. Apply process pressure to the input element or, if
link 1 was disconnected, remove the tape from the
process pointer and move the pointer until it aligns
with the right-hand edge of the set point indicator as
shown in figure 4–4.
The controller output should be within 2 psig (0.14 bar)
of the supply pressure.
16. Apply process pressure to the input element or, if
disconnected, move the process pointer until it aligns
with the left-hand edge of the set point indicator as
shown in figure 4–4.
The controller output pressure should go to 0 psig.
17. Set the proportional band to 30 percent REVERSE.
18. Apply process pressure to the input element or, if
disconnected, move the process pointer until it aligns
with the right-hand edge of the set point indicator as
shown in figure 4–4. The controller output should be 0
psig.
19. Apply process pressure to the input element or, if
disconnected, move the process pointer until it aligns
with the left-hand edge of the set point indicator as
shown in figure 4–4. The controller output should be
within 2 psig (0.14 bar) of the supply pressure.
20. If the controller does not perform as indicated in
steps 14 through 19, the flapper is not correctly
aligned. This may occur because the output was not

3. For a controller with manual set point, move the set
point indicator to the mid-scale mark on the process
scale. For a controller with remote set point, adjust the
remote set point pressure until the set point indicator
is at the mid-scale mark on the process scale.
4. Set the proportional band to 100 percent in either
the DIRECT or REVERSE action depending on the
application requirements.
5. Refer to figure 4–3 for the location of the anti-reset
windup differential relief valve. For the differential relief
valve to relieve on rising controller output pressure,
install the valve so the arrow on the valve points down.
To change the direction of the arrow, loosen the two
mounting screws, pull the valve out, and reinstall the
valve with the arrow pointing down. Tighten the two
mounting screws.
6. Provide a regulated supply pressure to the controller. Do not exceed the normal operating pressure in
table 1–6.

21. When the flapper is correctly aligned, set the proportional band to 400 percent in the desired controller
action and replace the proportional band indicator cover. If link 1 was disconnected, reconnect link 1 to the
input element using the same hole noted in step 8.
22. If the controller has the external feedback option,
disconnect the outside tubing which connects the external feedback connection to the output connection.
23. For controllers with anti-reset windup (suffix letter
F), remove the two machine screws, valve cover and
two O-rings installed in step 1 of this procedure. Install
the anti-reset windup relief valve (key 55) with the arrow pointing in the direction recorded in step 1.
Anti-Reset Windup (suffix letter F)
Differential Relief Valve Calibration
Calibration for the differential relief valve to relieve
on rising controller output pressure
1. Provide a means of measuring the controller output
pressure by connecting the controller output to a pressure gauge (open-loop conditions must exist). Do not
apply supply pressure at this time.
2. Set the reset adjustment to 0.01 minutes per repeat (wide open) and the rate adjustment (4195KC
Series only) to the OFF position.
Because of the high controller gain with
the reset adjustment at 0.01 minutes per
repeat, the controller output will not balance perfectly in the following step. If
the controller output is stable for
approximately 5 seconds, it is adequately balanced.
7. Increase the process pressure (or vacuum for a
vacuum controller) to the controller until the controller
output pressure balances at 6 psig (0.4 bar) for a 3 to
15 psig (0.2 to 1.0 bar) output range or 12 psig (0.8
bar) for a 6 to 30 psig (0.4 to 2.0 bar) output range.
8. Turn the reset adjustment to the CLOSED (4195KB
Series) or OFF (4195KC Series) position.
9. Increase the controller output pressure in small
steps (approximately 0.5 psig (0.04 bar)) by changing
the process pressure to the controller or by changing
the controller set point. After each change in process
pressure or set point, the controller output pressure
should quickly change and then stabilize at the new
value.
10. Continue to change the controller output pressure
in 0.5 psi (0.04 bar) steps and check the output pressure after each step to make sure it stabilizes. At
some point, the controller output will start to ramp upward to supply pressure with no further change to the
controller input or set point. Record the controller output pressure where this ramping action begins because this is the point at which the differential relief
valve has relieved.
11. To obtain the differential relief valve differential
setting, calculate the difference between the original
controller output pressure in step 7 and the controller
output pressure recorded in step 10.
4–8
4195KA, KB, and KC Series
12. If the differential pressure calculated in step 11 is
incorrect for the application, adjust the differential
pressure by turning the differential relief valve adjustment screw shown in figure 4–3. Turn the screw clockwise to decrease the differential pressure or counterclockwise to increase the differential pressure. The
differential relief valve is set at the factory to relieve at
approximately 5 psi (0.4 bar) differential pressure.
13. Repeat steps 7 through 12 until the required differential pressure is obtained.
Calibration for the differential relief valve to relieve
on falling controller output pressure
1. Provide a means of measuring the controller output
pressure by connecting the controller output to a pressure gauge (open-loop conditions must exist). Do not
apply supply pressure at this time.
2. Set the reset adjustment to 0.01 minutes per repeat (wide open) and the rate adjustment (4195KC
Series only) to the OFF position.
3. For a controller with manual set point, move the set
point indicator to the mid-scale mark on the process
scale. For a controller with remote set point, adjust the
remote set point pressure until the set point indicator
is at the mid-scale mark on the process scale.
4. Set the proportional band to 100 percent in either
the DIRECT or REVERSE action depending on the
application requirements.
5. Refer to figure 4–3 for the location of the anti-reset
windup differential relief valve. For the differential relief
valve to relieve on falling controller output pressure,
install the valve so the arrow on the valve points up.
To change the direction of the arrow, loosen the two
mounting screws, pull the valve out, and reinstall the
valve with the arrow pointing up. Tighten the two
mounting screws.
6. Provide a regulated supply pressure to the controller. Do not exceed the normal operating pressure in
table 1–6.
Note
Because of the high controller gain with
the reset adjustment at 0.01 minutes per
repeat, the controller output will not balance perfectly in the following step. If
the controller output is stable for
approximately 5 seconds, it is adequately balanced.
7. Increase the process pressure (or vacuum for a
vacuum controller) to the controller until the controller
output pressure balances at 12 psig (0.8 bar) for a 3 to
15 psig (0.2 to 1.0 bar) output range or 24 psig (1.6
bar) for a 6 to 30 psig (0.4 to 2.0 bar) output range.
8. Turn the reset adjustment to the CLOSED (4195KB
Series) or OFF (4195KC Series) position.
9. Decrease the controller output pressure in small
steps (approximately 0.5 psig (0.04 bar)) by changing
the process pressure to the controller or by changing
the controller set point. After each change in controller
process pressure or set point, the controller output
pressure should quickly change and then stabilize at
the new value.
10. Continue to change the controller output pressure
in 0.5 psi (0.04 bar) steps and check the output pressure after each step to make sure it stabilizes. At
some point, the controller output will start to ramp
downward to 0 psig with no further change to the controller input or set point. Record the controller output
pressure where this ramping action begins because
this is the point at which the differential relief valve has
relieved.
11. To obtain the differential relief valve differential
setting, calculate the difference between the original
controller output pressure in step 7 and the controller
output pressure recorded in step 10.
12. If the differential pressure calculated in step 11 is
incorrect for the application, adjust the differential
pressure by turning the differential relief valve adjustment screw, shown in figure 4–3. Turn the screw
clockwise to decrease the differential pressure or
counterclockwise to increase the differential pressure.
The differential relief valve is set at the factory to relieve at approximately 5 psi (0.4 bar) differential pressure.
13. Repeat steps 7 through 12 until the required differential pressure is obtained.
Principle of Operation for 4195KB and
KC Series Controllers
Overall Operation
Refer to the schematic diagram in figure 4–5 for the
4195KB Series controllers, or to the schematic diagram in figure 4–6 for the 4195KC Series controllers.
The input element is connected to the process pointer
and to the flapper by connecting links. As the process
pressure increases (in a direct-acting controller), the
flapper moves toward the nozzle, restricting flow
through the nozzle and increasing nozzle pressure.
When this occurs, relay action increases the output
pressure (delivery) of the controller. Output pressure is
fed back to the proportional bellows and to the reset
bellows. The action of the proportional bellows quickly
counteracts the flapper movement that resulted from
the process pressure change and backs the flapper
away from the nozzle.
Pressure in the reset bellows opposes the action of
the proportional bellows and slowly moves the flapper
