Warning: Jordan Valve Control Valves must only be used, installed and repaired in accordance with these Installa­tion & Maintenance Instructions. Observe all applicable public and company codes and regulations. In the event
of leakage or other malfunction, call a qualified service person; continued operation may cause system failure or
a general hazard. Before servicing any valve, disconnect, shut off, or bypass all pressurized fluid. Before disassem­bling a valve, be sure to release all spring tension.

InstallatIon- lInear

Note: Prior to installing positioner, ensure all safety
precautions have been taken.

- All input or supply pressure to valve,
actuator and or other related devices must
be shut off

- Use proper lock out procedures

- A bypass valve or other supportive equip­ ment may be used to avoid entire system
“shut down”

- Ensure any remaining actuator pressure
has been fully relieved

Mark 17X Linear Installation

The Mark 17X Linear Smart Positioner should be in­stalled on linear motion valves such as a globe or gate
style valve which uses linear motion spring type or
piston actuators. Prior to installation, have the following
items available:

- Mark 17X Positioner

- Feedback Lever and Lever Spring

- Flange Nut (bottom side of 3400L)

- Qty. 4, Hex Head Bolts (M8x1.25P)

- Qty. 4, M8 Flat Washers

- Mounting Kit

- Bracket

Installation & Maintenance Instructions for the

Mark 17X Series Smart Positioner

*A proper mounting bracket must be used in order
to adapt the Mark 17X positioner to the actua­tor yoke. Contact a Jordan Valve representative
should a bracket be required for a Jordan Valve
Actuator.
If having a bracket made to best suit the applica­tion, consider the following:

- The positioner feedback lever must be
parallel to the ground at 50% of the valve
stroke.

- The feedback lever connection with the
pin of the actuator clamp should
be installed in such a way that the valve
stroke length coincides with the corre-
sponding figure in “mm” marked on the
feedback lever. Improper setting may
cause poor linearity, and may create
unnecessary hunting during the
operation.

1. Assemble the mounting bracket to the
backside of the positioner using 4, M8 X

1.25 bolts and lock washers.

2. Attach the positioner and mounting bracket to
the actuator yoke – DO NOT FULLY TIGHTEN
FASTENERS COMPLETELY

3. Connect the positioner feedback lever to the
actuator clamp. The gap on the feedback lever
is 6.5mm. The connection pins
outer diameter should be less than 6.3 mm.

4. Temporarily connect supply pressure to the
actuator. Supply enough pressure to to the
actuator in order to position the actuator clamp
at 50% of the total valve stroke.

5. Insert a connection pin into the feedback lever.
The pin should be inserted when the actuator
clamp is at 50% of the total valve stroke.

6. Ensure feedback lever is parallel to the ground
at 50% of the valve stroke. Make adjustments to
the bracket or feedback link bar as required.
Improper installation may cause poor
linearity and may create unnecessary hunting
during the operation.

7. Check the valve stroke. The stroke marks are
indicated on the feedback lever of the
Mark 17X positioner. Position the
connection pin at the number on the feedback
lever which corresponds to the desired valve
stroke. Adjustments may be made by moving
the bracket, the connection pin, or both.

8. After installing the positioner, operate the
valve from 0% to 100% stroke by using direct
air to the actuator (manual position). At both
0% and 100% the feedback lever should not
touch the lever stopper, which is located on the
back of the positioner. Should the feedback
lever touch the stopper, adjustments may be
required to install the positioner further away
from the actuator yoke.

Bracket Information:

The supplied standard bracket contains two com­ponents. The bracket may be used for both fork
lever type and NAMUR lever type configurations.
The bracket is designed to fit on the actuator with a
20mm stem height (H). Should the stem height be
30mm or 50mm, the bracket must be adjusted as
required.

Mark 17X Rotary Installation

The Mark 17X Rotary Smart Positioner should be in­stalled on rotary motion valves, such as ball or butterfly
type valves which use a rack and pinion, scotch yoke,
or other type of actuator which uses 90 degree rotation.
Prior to installation have the following items available:

- Mark 17X Positioner

- Fork Lever and Lever Spring

- Standard rotary bracket (supplied)

- Qty. 4, Hex Head Bolts (M8x1.25P)

- Qty. 4, M8 Flat Washers

1. Check actuator stem height and adjust as
required.

2. Attach the bracket to the actuator. Use lock
washers to prevent the bolts from loosening from
vibrations.

3. Set the rotation position of the actuator stem to
0%. For single acting actuators, with
no supply pressure to the actuator, the stem will
be at 0%. For double acting actuators,
check the actuator stem rotation
direction – clockwise or counter clockwise- by
supplying pressure to the actuator.

4. Install the fork lever after setting the actuators
stem at 0%. Check the actuator stem rotation
direction, clockwise or counter clock
wise. Install the fork lever at 45 degrees in
relation to the linear shaft. For NAMUR mount
installation, this angle does not apply.

Counter Clockwise and Clockwise rotation

6. Attach the positioner to the bracket. Fix the clamping pin on the main shafts center of the positioner, and
insert the connection pin into the fork lever slot. This will lock the fork lever spring. Ensure proper alignment
of the positioners main shaft centered to the actuator stem. Poor alignment may decrease the positioners
durability due to unnecessary forces on the main shaft.

5. After setting the fork lever position, assemble
the lock nuts which are located on the bottom
of the fork lever. Ensure the set height of the
upper fork lever is between 6mm to 11mm from
the top of the mounting bracket.

Supply:

Supply pressure should be clean, dry air. Avoid moisture, oil and dust. It is recommended that a filter regulator be
used as part of a complete installation to ensure proper operation and durability.

Supply Pressure Conditions:

- Dry air of at least 10oC lower than ambient temperature.

- The Mark 17X internal filter is capable of 5 micron or larger, always use a filer regulator to ensure clean air
is being supplied to the positioner.

- Avoid oil.

- Supply pressure range is 20psig – 100psig.

- Set air filter regulator pressure level 10% higher than actuators spring range pressure.

- Comply with ANSI/ISA-57.3 1975(R1981) or ISA S7.3-1975(R1981)

Piping Conditions:

- Ensure all piping is clean and free of obstructions.

- Do not use piping that is squeezed or restricted, or shows any type of damage.

- Minimum piping inside diameter should be at least 6mm (.25”) to maintain proper flow rate.

- Avoid excessively long runs of piping. Flow rates may be affected due to friction inside the piping.

Connection: Single Acting Actuator,

Single acting type positioner is set to the OUT1 port. Supply pressure port rom the actuator should be connected to
the OUT1 port when using single acting type, spring return actuation.

ConneCtIons, ContInued

Connection: Double Acting Actuator,

Double acting type positioner is set to use the OUT1 and OUT2 ports. As the input signal increases the supply pres­sure will be supplied through the OUT1 port.

Power Connections:

Ensure safety codes applicable to the location are adhered to as required.

- When installing in hazardous locations, proper conduit tubing or pressure proof packing union must be
used. The compound charging box should be flameproof type and completely sealed.

- Standard conduit entry tap is PF (G) 1/2"

- Before connection the terminal, ensure proper safety precautions have been taken, and all power is com
pletely shut off. Do not open the cover while power to the positioner is live.

- Positioners with PTM option must be supplied with 10~28V DC separately. For L/S option, separate 12-24V
DC must be supplied. Do not exceed 30V DC if both options are being utilized.

- Ensure proper grounding of the positioner.

- Ensure proper wiring is utilized in accordance to local codes and installation application. It is recommended
that shielded wiring be used to protect from electro-magnetic field and noise. Do not install the cable near
high noise environments, such as high capacity transformer or motor.
