Supply Pressure – Use clean, dry instrument air for the supply pressure.

• In general, on valves that are normally closed, you need 35-40 psi of supply
pressure to assure full operation.

• For valves that are normally open, 25 psi of supply pressure is generally the
most you would need to fully operate a valve of this action. You can damage
certain models by exceeding this recommendation.

• All Richards Industries linear actuators are rated for a maximum pressure of
50 psi. Please do not exceed this valve.

There are three keys on the positioner. Each one is described below:

- Enter Key – This key is used to move between menus and to accept changes to

the menu. It is also used to go between operating, manual, and menu modes.

- This key is used to move down in the sub-menu selections.

- This key is used to go up in the sub-menu selections.
