Maintenance Service
Warning!
When upgrading electronically parts inside a PMV positioner approved for installation in
Hazardous locations special procedures apply, permission from PMV/Flowserve is required
prior to the start of work. Please contact a Flowserve office for information regarding proper
procedures www.pmv.nu or infopmv@flowserve.com
-Always turn off the air and electrical supplies before starting any work.
Safety instruction
Read the safety instructions in this manual carefully before using the product. The
installation, operation, and maintenance of the product must be done by staff with the
necessary training and experience. If any questions arise during installation, contact the
supplier/sales office before continuing work.
Warning
The valve can open or close very quickly when in operation and, if handled incorrectly, it may
cause damages. There may also be unintentional effects due to it fully opening or shutting
off the flow in the process pipe. Please note the following:
• If the input signal fails or is switched off, the valve operates quickly to its default position.
• If the compressed air supply fails or is turned off, rapid movements can occur.
• The valve is not controlled by the input signals when in the Out of Service mode. It will
open/close in the event of an internal or external leak.
• If a high value is set for Cut off, fast movements can occur.
• When the valve is controlled in the Manual mode, the valve can operates quickly.
• Incorrect settings can cause self-oscillation, which can lead to damage.
Important
• Always turn off the compressed air supply before removing or disconnecting the air
supply connection or the integral filter. Remove or disconnect with care as air connection
”C-” is still under pressure even after the air supply is turned off.
• Always work in an ESD (Emergency Discharge) protected area when servicing the Printed
circuit boards (PCB´s). Make sure the input signal is switched off.
• The air supply must be free from moisture, water, oil and particles according to DIN/ISO
8573-1-2001 3.2.3.

2. Storage
General
The D30 positioner is a precision instrument.
Therefore it is essential that it is handled and
stored in the correct way. Always follow the
instructions in this IOM!
Note: As soon as the positioner is connected
and started, internal air venting will provide
protection against corrosion and prevent
the ingress of moisture. For this reason, the
air supply pressure should always be kept
on unless repair/maintenance work of the
positioner, actuator or valve equipment is in
progress.
Keep the cover mounted on the positioner and
replace any damaged window.
Storage indoors
Store the positioner in its original packaging.
The storage environment must be clean, dry,
and cool (15 to 26°C, 59 to 79°F).
Storage outdoors or for a longer period
If the positioner must be stored outdoors,
it is important that all the cover screws are
tightened and that all open ports/connections
are properly sealed and/or plugged.
The red shipping plugs are not intended as a
permanent outdoor plug. The unit should be
packed with a desiccant (silica gel) in a plastic
bag or similar, covered with plastic, and not
exposed to sunlight, rain, or snow.
This is also applicable for long-term storage
(more than 1 month) and for long transport by
sea.
Storage in a warm place
When the positioner is stored - without air
supply pressure applied - in a warm place with
a high relative humidity and is subjected to
daily temperature variations, the air inside the
unit will expand and contract.
This means that air from outside the unit may
be drawn into the positioner. Depending on the
temperature variations, relative humidity, and
other factors, condensation and corrosion can
occur inside the unit, which in turn can give rise
to functional disorders or a failure.

3. Installation
Removal of cover
General purpose / Intrinsically safe
Remove cover by first loosening the screw 1
and then the two screws 2.
To install cover, first tighten the screw 1, then
the two screws 2.
Tighten to 1.5 Nm ± 15%.
Supply air should meet requirements specified
on page 5. A coalescing filter/regulator
should be installed in front of the supply air
connection. Now connect the air supply to the
filter, which is connected to the D30 positioner.
Tubing
It is recommended to use tubes with a
minimum inner diameter of Ø 6 mm (¼”).
Air supply requirements
Poor quality air supply is the main cause of
problems in pneumatic systems.
The air supply must be free from moisture,
water, oil and particles and delivered @ 1.4-8
barg (20-115 psi)
Standard: DIN/ISO 8573-1-2001 3.2.3
Filtered to 5 Micron, dew point -40°C/F
Oil 1mg/m³ (0,83 ppm by weight)
The air must come from a refrigeration dried
supply or be treated in such a way that its dew
point is at least 10°C (18°F) below the lowest
expected ambient temperature.
To ensure a stable and problem-free air supply,
we recommend the installation of a
coalescing filter/regulator <5µ as close to the
positioner as possible.
Before the air supply is connected to the
positioner, we recommend the hose is
opened freely for 2 to 3 minutes to allow any
contamination to be blown out. Direct the air
jet into a large paper bag to trap any water, oil,
or other foreign materials. If this indicates that
the air system is contaminated, it should be
properly cleaned before continuing.

WARNING! Do not direct the open air jet
towards people or objects because it may
cause personal injury or damage.

Mounting
Note: If the positioner is installed in a
hazardous environment, it must be of a type
approved for this purpose.
All versions of the D30 positioner have an ISO
F05 footprint. The holes are used to attach the
D30 to the mounting bracket B. Please contact
PMV or your local distributor representative
with actuator specifics for the proper mounting
bracket and hardware.
The spindle shaft S09 can be changed to suit
various actuators in question by the use of
adaptors.
It is important that the positioner’s spindle
shaft and the lever arms, that transfer the
actuator movements, are correctly mounted.
Any tension between these parts can cause
incorrect operation and abnormal wear.

Electrical connections
Terminal block diagram for the D30.
The terminal block for the positioner is
accessible when the aluminum cover is
removed.
The D30 digital positioner has been designed to
operate correctly in electromagnetic (EM) fields
found in typical industrial environments. Care
should be taken to prevent the positioner from
being used in environments with
excessively high EM field strengths (greater
than 10 V/m). Portable EM devices such as
hand-held two-way radios should not be used
within 30 cm of the device.
Ensure proper wiring and shielding techniques
of the control lines, and route control lines
away from electro-magnetic sources that may
cause unwanted noise.
An electromagnetic line filter can be used to
further eliminate noise.
In the event of a severe electrostatic discharge
near the positioner, the device should be
inspected to ensure correct operability. It may
be necessary to recalibrate the D30 positioner
to restore operation.
