2ND9200F INTELLIGENT VALVE
CONTROLLER WITH FOUNDATION
FIELDBUS COMMUNICATION
2.1General
This manual incorporates Installation, Maintenance and
Operation Instructions for the Metso ND9200F intelligent
valve controller. The ND9200F may be used with either
cylinder or diaphragm type pneumatic actuators for
rotary or linear valves.
NOTE:
The selection and use of the valve controller in a specific
application requires close consideration of detailed
aspects. Due to the nature of the product, this manual
cannot cover all the likely situations that may occur when
installing, using or servicing the valve controller.
If you are uncertain about the use of the controller or its
suitability for your intended use, please contact Metso’s
Automation business for more information.
2.2Technical description
The ND9200F is a fieldbus powered microcontrollerbased intelligent valve controller. The ND9200F configuration can be done either using local push buttons or
FOUNDATION Fieldbus configurator.
The powerful 32-bit microcontroller controls the valve
position. The measurements include:
❑Input signal
❑Valve position with contactless sensor
❑Actuator pressures, 2 independent measurements
❑Supply pressure
❑Spool valve position
❑Device temperature
Advanced self-diagnostics guarantees that all measurements operate correctly. Failure of one measurement
does not cause the valve to fail if the input signal and
position measurements are operating correctly. After
connections of electric signal and pneumatic supply the
micro controller (µC) reads the input signal, position sensor (α), pressure sensors (Ps, P1, P2) and spool position
sensor (SPS). A difference between input signal and
position sensor (α) measurement is detected by the control algorithm inside the µC. The µC calculates a new
value for prestage (PR) coil current based on the information from the input signal and from the sensors.
Changed current to the PR changes the pilot pressure to
the spool valve. Reduced pilot pressure moves the spool
and the actuator pressures change accordingly. The
spool opens the flow to the driving side of the double
diaphragm actuator and opens the flow out from the
other side of the actuator. The increasing pressure will
move the diaphragm piston. The actuator and feedback
shaft rotate clockwise. The position sensor (α) measures
the rotation for the µC. The µC using control algorithm
modulates the PR-current from the steady state value
until a new position of the actuator according to the input
signal is reached.

4MOUNTING
4.1General
NOTE:
The enclosure of ND9200F intelligent valve controller
meets the IP66 protection class according to EN 60529
in any position when the cable entry is plugged according to IP66.
Based on good mounting practice, the recommended
mounting position is electrical connections placed
downwards. This recommendation is shown in our
mounting position coding for control valves.
If these requirements are not fulfilled, and the cable
gland is leaking and the leakage is damaging valve
controller or other electrical instrumentation, our warranty is not valid.
If the ND9200F is supplied with valve and actuator, the
tubes are mounted and the ND9200F adjusted in
accordance with the customer’s specifications. If the
controller is ordered separately, the mounting parts for
the assembly must be ordered at the same time.

feedback arm is approximately at a 90° angle to
the actuator stem (in the mid-stroke position).
❑Tighten the valve controller mounting bracket
screws.
❑Adjust the distance of the valve controller to the
pin on the actuator stem so that the pin stays in
the lever slot at full stroke. Ensure also that the
maximum angle of the lever does not exceed 45°
in either direction. Maximum allowed travel of the
lever is shown in Section 12.8. Best control performance is achieved when the feedback lever
utilises the maximum allowed angle (±45° from
horizontal position). The whole range should be
at least 45°.
❑Make sure that the valve controller is in right
angle and tighten all the mounting bolts.
❑Ensure that the valve controller complies with
previous steps. Check that the actuator pin does
not touch the valve controller case throughout
the entire stroke of the actuator. If the actuator
pin is too long it may be cut to size.
❑Apply grease (Molykote or equivalent) to the con-
tact surfaces of the actuator pin and the feedback arm to reduce wear.

5.5.9 Low cut-off, low limit, high cut-off,
high limit
ND9200F supports signal cut-off and limiting in both
ends of the operating range. The configuration parameters are; low cut-off, low limit, high cut-off and high limit.
❑If the input signal is smaller than low cut-off
(TRANSDUCER_BLOCK.FINAL_VALUE_CUTOFF_LO),
the valve will be fully closed.
❑If the input signal is smaller than low limit
(TRANSDUCER_BLOCK.FINAL_VALUE_RANGE.LO),
the valve stays in the low limit.
❑If the input signal is greater than high cut-off
(TRANSDUCER_BLOCK.FINAL_VALUE_CUTOFF_HI),
the valve will be fully opened.
❑If the input signal is greater than high limit
(TRANSDUCER_BLOCK.FINAL_VALUE_RANGE.HIGH),
the valve stays in the high limit.
The cut-off overrides the limit as follows:
7 ND92F 70 en17
❑If the low cut-off > low limit, the low limit is not
active.
❑If the low cut-off < low limit, both low cut-off and
limit are active.
❑If the low cut-off is set to zero, the low cut-off is
not active.
❑If the high cut-off < high limit, the high limit is not
active.
❑If the high cut-off > high limit, both high cut-off
and limit are active.
❑If the high cut-off is set to 100%, the high cut-off
is not active.
Only the low cut-off is adjustable using the LUI. Low
limit, high cut-off and high limit are configurable via
fieldbus.
5.6Valve travel calibration
NOTE:
If AUTO CAL or MAN CAL is selected, the valve controller
must be in AUTO mode. 1-point calibration may run in
both AUTO and MAN mode.
Select CAL from the menu by using + or - keys and
press the ? key. Define the calibration type AUTO, MAN
or TUNE. You may also select TUNE after AUTO and MAN
calibration separately as seen in Fig.16.
Fig. 16Calibration selection
WARNING:
Automatic calibration drives the valve against the
mechanical open and closed travel limits of the
valve-actuator assembly and a tuning procedure is
performed. Make sure that these procedures can
be safely executed.
5.6.1 AUTO calibration function
During the calibration process the display will show the
following text: CALrun. After calibration the ND9200F
scrolls CALIBRATION SUCCESSFUL text. You may inter-
rupt the calibration sequences at any time by pressing
the = key.
After the calibration sequence is finished, press the =
key twice to get back to the measurement view.
Please refer to Chapter 7 if this sequence has failed and
an error message is displayed.
If you cannot drive the valve into a fully open position or if
there is no mechanical limit stop, a manual calibration is
required.
the + or - keys drive the valve manually to the closed
(0 %) position and then press the ? key. If you cancel
the operation, the old values of the previous calibration
will be restored. Drive the valve into the desired maximum opening position (100 %) with the + and - keys
and press the ? key.
If this sequence has failed and an error message is
shown, see Chapter 7.
5.6.3 TUNE function
During the tuning the ND9200F controller searches for
optimum internal control parameters for the valve position control. At any time you may interrupt the tuning
sequence by pressing the = key. The tuning will not
alter the PERF parameter.
If calibration and tuning are performed in sequence, the
cancelling of tuning does not restore the old calibration
values.
5.6.41-Point Calibration
1-point calibration is useful in cases in which the valve
controller needs to be changed but it is not possible to
run the normal calibration and the valve is not allowed
to change position (the valve is active, for example).
This procedure does not ensure the best possible
control performance, and it is always recommended
to run either AUTO or MAN calibration and tuning,
as soon as possible. The primary way to calibrate
valve position is to use either AUTO or MAN calibration.
Before starting 1-point calibration, read the warnings
and notes below and check that the valve is mechan-
ically locked. Before starting 1-point calibration,
adjust the TPOS value in the MAN mode (see section 5.4.2) to correspond with the physical position
of the valve.
Once the 1-point calibration is started, the first view
shows ANG above and NN.N below (see Fig. 16). NN.N
presents the maximum turning angle (in degrees) that
the valve can perform.
To change the value:
❑Press ?, NN.N begins blink
❑Press + and - -buttons to change the value
After the correct valve operation angle is set, press ?
button.
During the calibration process the display will show the
following text: CALrun. After calibration the ND9200F
scrolls CALIBRATION SUCCESSFUL text. You may inter-
rupt the calibration sequences at any time by pressing
the = key.
After the calibration sequence is finished, press the =
key twice to get back to the measurement view.
Please refer to Chapter 7 if this sequence has failed
and an error message is displayed.
5.6.2 MAN calibration function
After selecting the MAN calibration function from the
menu press the ? key to activate the procedure. With
187 ND92F 70 en
The valve can now be unlocked.
WARNING:
Supply pressure can be connected to the valve
controller only after 1-point calibration is successfully completed. If supply pressure is connected to
the valve controller before successful 1-point calibration, the valve may move and cause danger.
NOTE:
If an incorrect valve operation angle is given to the
valve controller during 1-point calibration, valve operation will be incorrect. In this case, you must perform
1-point calibration again with correct valve operation
angle value.
NOTE:
If the valve position is not stable (due to heavy vibration etc) during 1-point calibration, the calibration will
not end successfully. Check that the valve position is
fully stable during this operation.

For the list of events see Chapter 7.
5.7.4 Fail-safe active
When the ND9200F detects serious device failure (setpoint, valve position and control signals) it enters failsafe mode, which drives the control valve into the position defined in the parameter controller fail action (PFA).
Fail-safe mode is indicated by the display as seen in
Fig. 19. The error message is displayed until the cause
of error is eliminated and the ND9200F unit is restarted,
i.e. the power loop is momentarily disconnected.

5.8Write protection
The ND9200F is delivered from the factory with HW
write protection OFF as the default setting. Reading
and changing parameters is thus allowed. Write protection can be enabled with the switch (DIP1) located on
the circuit board (Fig. 21).
Write protection protects all write access to all writeable
parameters of the device. Changing the parameters
from the LUI or Fieldbus configurator is thus not
allowed.
The simulation switch is OFF as the default setting. A0
block simulation is thus disabled. The simulation can be
enabled with the switch (DIP2) located on the circuit
board (Fig 21).

6MAINTENANCE
Ex d WARNING:
Service of the cylindrical flameproof joints is not
allowed.
This includes the diaphragm cover (part 171), flame
arrester plunger (part 200), their mating surfaces in
the housing (part 2) and the shaft assembly fixed in
the housing.
The maintenance requirements of the ND9200F valve
controller depend on the service conditions, for
instance, the quality of instrument air. Under normal
service conditions there is no requirement for regular
maintenance.
When maintaining the ND9200F ensure that the supply
air is shut off and pressure is released. In the following
text the numbers in brackets ( ) correspond to the part
numbers in the exploded view as shown in Chapter 11,
unless otherwise stated.
The ND9200F valve controller includes the following
interchangeable modules: prestage unit (120), spool
valve (193), communication circuit board with optional
position transmitter (215).
The spool valve is located on the bottom side of the
device while the other modules are located below the
covers (100) and (39). In the event of failure the whole
module must be changed. The module retrofit must be
assembled in a clean, dry environment. In reassembly
apply a thread-locking compound (for instance, Loctite
243) and tighten the screws firmly.
Fig. 21Write protection
6.1Prestage
NOTE:
The prestage must be handled carefully. In particular
the moving parts of the prestage should not be
touched when the inner cover (39) is not in place.
6.1.1 Removal
❑Loosen the M8 stop screw (110) in the position
indicator (109) and turn the position indicator
from the shaft (11). Remove the inner cover (39)
attached with M3 screws (42, 3 pcs).
❑Unplug the prestage wire connector from the
spool sensor board (180). Unscrew the M4
screws (139, 2 pcs.) and lift up the prestage
module. Remove the O-ring (140).
6.1.2 Installation
❑Place a new O-ring (140) into the groove in the
housing and press the prestage into place. Make
sure the nozzle is guided into the O-ring properly.
The screws guide the prestage body into the correct position. Tighten the screws (139) evenly.

6.2Spool valve
6.2.1 Removal
For spool valve removal it is usually necessary to
unmount the valve controller from the actuator.
❑Working from the bottom side of the valve con-
troller, unscrew the M4 screws (47, 3 pcs.).
Remove the spool valve cover (61) and the spool
valve (193) with gasket (174). Hold the ends of
the body with your fingers to avoid dropping the
spool from the body.
❑Spool valve removal is only possible in the
spring-forced failsafe position of the spool. In the
case of a stuck spool it might be necessary to
remove the secondary diaphragm cover (167),
the spool spring (166) with its disc (164) and the
secondary diaphragm (162) with its plate. After
the removal of these parts it is possible to use a
punch to force the spool to the failsafe position.
❑The spool valve may be cleaned if special atten-
tion is paid to a clean environment and proper
procedure.
❑Clean the spool and the bore of the body with
care. Do not leave any fibres from cleaning materials in the bore or on the spool. Do not scratch
the mating surfaces of the spool and body.
NOTE:
Each spool valve body has an individual corresponding spool which cannot be replaced by any other
spool. Never alter the orientation of the spool. The orientation of the spool is marked on the device, see
Fig. 22.
6.2.2 Installation
❑Ensure that the gaskets (174) and (63) are prop-
erly located in their grooves on the bottom of the
housing. Mount the spool valve and the spool
valve cover (61) to the housing, and tighten M4
screws evenly.
195174 194
6.3Flame arrestor assembly
The flame arrestor and the restrictor are fit into the same
plug which is located under the diaphragm cover (171).
This assembly can not be disassembled and should be
replaced if clogged.
❑To remove the flame arrestor assembly, unscrew
the screws (173, 4 pcs.) and remove the diaphragm cover (171) with its O-ring. Turn a M3
screw into the threaded hole of the flame arrestor
assembly to extract it from the housing. Installation is the reversal of removal. Place the O-rings
carefully.
6.4Diaphragms
The diaphragms (169, 162) may be replaced by removing the respective covers (171, 167). The unit should be
unmounted from the actuator and the side to be worked
on turned upwards in order to avoid loss of small parts.
When replacing the secondary diaphragm (162), the
spool spring (166) with its guide (164) has to be
removed first. When reassembling, pay special attention to the installation of the diaphragms and O-rings.
6.5Communication circuit board
6.5.1 Removal
❑Loosen the M8 stop screw (110) in the position
indicator (109) and turn the position indicator
from the shaft (11). Remove the inner cover (39)
attached with M3 screws (42, 3 pcs.).
NOTE:
Ground yourself on the body of the device before
touching the circuit board.
❑Remove the M3 screws (217, 4 pcs.). Hold the
sides of the circuit board and lift it directly
upwards and outwards. Handle the board carefully, touching only the sides.
NOTE:
Do not remove the Valve Controller Board (210)!
Removing the board will void the warranty.

❑Replace the plastic plugs with metal ones in con-
duit entries which will not be used.
❑Mount the pointer (109) on the shaft (311). Adjust
the limit switch according to 9.4.
9.3Electrical connections
Before connecting the power, make sure that the electrical specifications and the wiring meet the installation
conditions. See the diagrams in 12.9. Refer to the information on the identification plate.
ND9200/I: Observe the functioning of the proximity
switch; activated when the active face is either covered
or free.
9.4Adjustment
The pointer (109) need not be removed for adjustment.
When the limit switch is ordered together with the valve
and the actuator, the valve controller switches are factory-adjusted. The limits may be adjusted by altering
the position of the cam discs (313) on the shaft. The
lower switch is activated at the closed limit and the
upper switch at the open limit.
❑With the actuator in the open or closed position,
locate the switching point by turning the cam
disc so that the switch state changes approx. 5°–6°
before the limit.

9.2Installing ND92_F/K_, ND92_F/I_ or
ND92_F/B_ on a valve controller
The limit switch may be installed on an existing valve
controller.
❑If the valve controller is already mounted on an
actuator/valve assembly, operate the actuator
into the closed or open position.
❑Remove the cover (100), the pointer (109), the
LUI (223) and electronics cover (39).
❑Turn the shaft (311) onto the shaft (11). Fasten
the screw (312) using a locking agent such as
Loctite.
❑Mount the electronics cover (39) and the limit
switch housing (300) on the valve controller. Lock
the housing in place with screw (326). Install the
base plate (324) with the limit switches and connector block into the limit switch housing. Fasten
the base plate with screws (325), 3 pcs.
❑Install the cam discs (313) and spacers (346) to
the shaft.
❑Mount the LUI (223) on the holder (306).
