3.3 Scope of Supply
Check the packaging immediately after receiving the product. Make sure that the
contents are undamaged and that they are in accordance with the scope of delivery
and as described on the invoice. If there are any discrepancies, please contact us
immediately.
The positioner is supplied in a closed package containing the following items:
• Intelligent electropneumatic positioner
• Linear or rotary actuator adaptor (as specified)
• Magnetic keychain for function configuration
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The PD200 smart positioner is powered by the 4-20 mA loop, with the control signal.
The Supply Air is connected to the inlet on the manifold and passes though the
pneumatic spool valve that controls the valve position.
The air passes through the Pressure Regulator and reaches the I/P Converter.
The valve position is detected through the Position Feedback Sensor (Hall effect
sensor) and transmitted to the electronic board (Main Microprocessor).
The fast microprocessor compares the control signal and the position feedback, and the
difference is the input to the PID controller that will generate an appropriate signal (in
frequency) to be applied to the coil of the I/P converter.
The I/P Converter is a nozzle/vane that generates a pressure signal to the Diaphragm Module. This will create a dynamic force on the spring that breaks the balance of the
spool valve, that then moves the valve to the new required position.
The microcontroller repeats the process. When the difference between the requested
position signal and the actual position feedback trends to zero, the interference of the
Diaphragm Module will cease. There will be a new balance on the spool valve and the
valve will reach the new position.

MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
The installation of the positioner will depend on the actuator type (linear or rotary).
The following shows the types of pneumatic actuators and a brief overview of their
operation.
Be sure to install the air filter and regulator before the positioner. The supply pressure
should be sufficient to fully open and close the valve.
5.1 What are Rotary Pneumatic Actuators?
Rotary pneumatic actuators are devices that convert the stored energy of compressed
air into a rotary mechanical motion. These devices can be single-acting, where they
receive air to open or close the valve and return to their original position by means of
a spring, without the need for air, or double-acting, which requires compressed air to
move in both directions.
Figure 5-1 Rotary Actuator Types
5.2 What are Pneumatic Linear Actuators?
Linear pneumatic actuators are devices that convert the stored energy of compressed
air into a linear mechanical motion. This linear motion allows the valve to open or close.
Similarly, to rotary actuators, they can also be single-acting, requiring air for only one
direction, or double-acting, requiring air for both directions.

Impurities in the supply air can partially or completely damage the positioner’s internal
components. Before connecting the conduit, it is essential to remove dust, oil, or other
impurities.
Instrument air must be of better quality than industrial compressed air. Humidity,
suspended particles, and oil can impair the instrument’s operation temporarily or
permanently if internal parts wear out.
Before instrumentation air is connected to the positioner, we recommend that the hose be
opened freely for 2 to 3 minutes to allow any contamination to escape.
WARNING
A pressure exceeding 10 bar (145 psi) may permanently damage the positioner.
Measures must be taken to ensure that even if the compressed air supply fails, the pressure
does not exceed 10 bar (145 psi).

Figure 8-11 Display Menu
In this function it is possible to select 5 display modes on the LCD display.
1.1 - POS (Position): Indicates the current valve position from 0% to 100%.
1.2 - SP (Set Point): Indicates the current value of the positioner input signal from 0% to
100%. This parameter represents the value of the desired position.
1.3 - F BACK (Feedback): Indicate the current position of the valve in % or the input
current in mA.
1.4 - CYCLE: When selecting this option, the display remains, indicating alternately the
current valve position (POS in %) and the current value of the input signal (SP in %).
1.5 - MV (Manipulated Variable): Indicates the manipulated variable in % on the display.
MV is informative data for operation diagnosis of the positioner / actuator / valve
assembly.
The Manipulated Variable is expressed as the force exerted by the positioner’s electropneumatic system to keep the control point in equilibrium. It is the result of all forces
from the positioner’s internal subsystems such as spring, vane nozzle, internal valve
plunger and others.
At the end of the positioner production process, adjustments are made to the
subsystems so that the MV leaves the factory in the internal setup range of 45% to 55%.
It is recommended that after the positioner has been installed on the actuator / valve
assembly, the pneumatic connections have been properly checked, all fasteners and
feedback systems have been properly tightened, and a FULL SETUP has been performed,
the MV should be observed with the system stably controlling a fixed opening position.
If the positioner/actuator/valve system is well adjusted, the MV is expected to be in
the range from 35% to 75%. In case values differ from this range, it is recommended to
re-evaluate the system and critically analyze whether the positioner is suitable for the
actuator/valve assembly. As an example of inadequacy, actuators that require a large air
flow and the ¼” gauge provided by the PD200 is not able to supply it.
Configuration
August 23, 2022
During the periodic maintenance of the system, it is recommended to recheck the MV,
in the same stability condition used in the initial installation.
If the MV indicates a value well below the initial value, it indicates some anomaly in
the positioner or in the actuator / valve assembly, which may include loosening of the
counterbalance spring, or deregulation of the internal pressure regulator.
On the other hand, if the MV has increased, this may be a sign of valve or actuator
stalling, which is requiring more force from the positioner to keep the same condition.
Note that it is normal during the control phase of the positioner that the MV changes
by excursion throughout the range, indicating that the positioner is varying the applied
force for control to be exercised.
In other words, the MV comes to contribute to the diagnosis of the control system,
which is subject to performance variations due to process conditions and wear of
moving parts.

8.5.4 Menu Split Range
Split range control is a system in which there is only one control signal and more than
one valve to be controlled.
In the example below, it will assume that the output of the controller is sent to two
valves.
The splitter defines how each valve is actuated as the controller’s output changes from
0 to 100%. In most split range applications, the controller adjusts the opening of one
of the valves when its output is within the range 0 to 50% and the other valve when its
output is within the range 50% to 100%.
In the example, the PV-002 valve will close in response to increasing pressure in TQ-001,
while the PV-001 valve will open when the pressure increases beyond the adjusted point.

Configuration
August 23, 2022
When the pressure increases beyond the setpoint in the range of 0% to 50% of the
controller output, the PV-002 valve must go from fully open to fully closed. When the
pressure increases beyond the set point in the range of 50% to 100% of the controller
output, the PV-001 valve must go from fully closed to fully open.

8.5.5 PID Menu
Proportional, integral and derivative control (PID control or simply PID) is a process
control technique. It unites proportional, integral and derivative actions so that an
error signal is minimized by the proportional action, zeroed by the integral action and
obtained with an anticipative speed by the derivative action. PID control is the most
widely used in industrial automation and can act in four ways:- Proportional control (P)
- Proportional and integral control (PI)
- Proportional and derivative control (PD)
- Proportional Integral and Derivative control (PID)
Proportional Control
•Proportional control always works on top of the system error, that is, it will
generate an output according to the error and not as a function of time.
•The gain (Kp) is the variable that the proportional controller uses for control. A
value that is too low for Kp will result in slow control, while a value that is too
high will result in the system oscillating around the setpoint.
•As can be seen from the adjacent graph, the proportional action does not
eliminate the error, which is called offset.
•This residual error consists of the steady state and can be changed by adjusting
the gain (Kp).
Configuration
August 23, 2022
Figure 8-21 Proportional Control Chart
Integral Control
•In integral action, the correction speed is proportional to the error, that is, in
integral action the control variable is time (Tr).
•Because this action provides a relatively slow correction speed when used
alone, in practice, it is always accompanied by proportional action (PI control).
•The PI control eliminates the offset that the proportional control presents, and
it has a faster response than the integral alone.
•A too small value of Tr will lead to large oscillations that will take longer to
stabilize.
•A too high value of Tr will result in a very slow and inefficient integration.
Configuration63
Installation, Operation, & Maintenance Manual
ES-09374-1
Figure 8-22 PI Control Chart
Configuration
August 23, 2022
Derivative Control
The derivative action like the integral action works with time (Td) and is also used in
conjunction with the proportional action (PD control).
This control is very efficient with respect to correction because it starts the correction
immediately as soon as the error starts (as the derivation of constant is always zero).
As in PI control this control also suffers effects for very high or very low values for time
(Td).
When we have large times, we will have more stability in the system with low-speed
response.
And when the time is small, there are many oscillations and falls in the stability of the
loop.
The PD control has the same peculiarity of proportional control only, which is to leave a
residue that is called offset, even though the derivative action improves the stability of
the system.
Graphically the PD control is like PI control differing only by leaving an offset.
Figure 8-23
Configuration64
Installation, Operation, & Maintenance Manual
ES-09374-1
PID Control
•PID control uses proportional, integral, and derivative actions together.
•As it joins all the control actions it makes the error correction faster and more
assertive by eliminating the offset left by the proportional and derivative
actions.
See the actions in graphical form in the picture below.

PID Tuning Methods
The positioner automatically adjusts the PID parameters in the calibration process, but
you can change the values for proportional gain (Kp), integral time (Tr) and derivative
time (Td) manually. To this end, there are a few methods for adjusting the parameters
(tuning).
Limit Sensitivity Method
This method will work on the closed loop setting. It will first reduce the effect of the
integral and derivative actions to a minimum. Only then will it start with the gain (Kp)
and increase it until the controlled variable oscillates with the amplitude that is constant
making small perturbations in the system.
The most common adjustment is the one that reaches a quarter of the previous
amplitude. This method can be used in many processes.
Reaction Curve Method
This method is widely used in first order systems since it is less complex. It will present
a S-shaped curve through the two constants delay (L) and time (T), through the
K-coordinate.
Attempted and Error Method
This is one of the most used methods because it is simple. It consists in modifying the
control actions and observing the effects on the process (as the name suggests).
However, to be able to work with this system, it is important to have knowledge of both
the process and its algorithm.
It cannot be used for open loops because it can generate instability when the gains are
too low or too high.
Another disadvantage that can occur with this method is that depending on the amount
of adjustment, it will take a lot of time to tune. Depending on the conditions, this could
impair the process.

specification, such a method took their names. It is suitable for complex plants in which
the mathematical modulus is not easily obtained, or when the plant model is unknown.
A few rules for PID tuning are presented. These rules are based on his experiments which
works on steps and gain. They provide an estimate of the parameters of integral time,
derivative time, and proportional gain.
Sometimes this signal can generate a very large step response. In that case you will need
to do some finer tuning to get the desired adjustment.
Auto Tuning Method
This method is an improvement of the Ziegler and Nichols method. The proportional
gain, derivation, and integration variables are calculated automatically. The data for
the calculations is usually obtained from the reaction curve, causing a step-shaped
disturbance.

Feedback Output Test
The feedback signal is automatically obtained in the positioner calibration process. It is
possible to measure this signal to check possible differences between the control and
feedback signals before putting the positioner into operation.
To test the signal, connect a 4 to 20 mA current generator to terminals 1 (+) and 3
(-). Connect a 24 Vdc voltage source in series with a multimeter on the current scale at
terminals 4 (+) and 5 ( - ).

Set the current generator to 4 mA and gradually increase by checking the output signal
(feedback) on the multimeter. See the graph below for 4 to 20 mA current values.
The output signal must be the same as the current generator, if there is a difference,
perform the TRIM adjustment procedure indicated in the previous item.

8.5.12 Time Menu
This function is designed to store the maximum angle and times it takes for the valve
to open and close completely for future diagnostic purposes. The opening and closing
times and the maximum angle are stored each time a FULL or AUTO calibration is
performed, and these values will remain stored until a new calibration updates the new
conditions. Please note that during normal operation of the positioner the TIME function
does not remeasure these parameters, not least because the positioner hardly ever
travels the entire stroke in the control phase.

Calibration Failure Alarm - Tout Alert
A failure is indicated if the valve does not respond within the time set in the menu. Three
consecutive failures must occur for the positioner to indicate an alarm.
Tout Alert can occur in three cases during the calibration process:
1 - Lack of initial movement:
Let’s assume that Tout was set to 10 seconds, and for some reason during the selfcalibration process the actuator does not move its axis, example: lack of air, wrong
pneumatic connection, stuck valve, etc. When you start the calibration procedure, the
Tout time starts counting with the display indicating 0%, and from this moment on we
have the following steps:
A - Display showing 0% - At this point, the positioner will send a command for the
actuator to move to the rest position and wait 10 seconds (Tout set) then it logs internal
fault 1, as there was no movement.
B - Now the display changes to 5% - and the positioner sends a new command for the
actuator to go to position A (example: Open), and after 10 seconds it accumulates
internal fault 2, since there was no movement either.
C - Then the display shows 10% - and the positioner sends a new command for the
actuator to move to position B (example: Closed).
D - Tout Alert is triggered generating an initial lack of movement fault. Note that only
after internal faults 1, 2, and 3 is the Tout Alert generated. Notice that it took 30s after
the start of the auto calibration routine, or 3 times the Tout set in the menu, for the
Tout Alert to be generated. If in this case the Tout set was 120 seconds, the lack of initial
movement alarm would only be generated after 360 seconds.
2 - Actuator pressurization delay condition:
Imagine the case of an actuator that takes 100 seconds to fully open and starts its
movement only from 90 seconds after the start of pressurization of its chamber.
In this case if the Tout is kept at 10 seconds, the display will indicate the steps 0%, then
5% and 10% and after the initial 30 seconds the Tout Alert will be generated, because the
actuator has not had time to start the movement of its axis, due to lack of pressurization
of the chamber.
In situations where this failure condition occurs, it is necessary that the user “reset” Tout
to a minimum value of 100 seconds.
Configuration82
Installation, Operation, & Maintenance Manual
ES-09374-1
3 - Failure in the learning cycles of the open and closed points:
Imagine the condition where Tout is set to 10 seconds and that the set (positioner/
actuator) was able to perform the 1st cycle of learning the open and closed points, but
when starting the second or third cycle, a failure of lack of compressed air occurs. In this
case, the Tout Alert will only be generated at the end of the self-calibration process of
the Open and Close positions.
A - Display showing 0% - At this point the positioner will send a command for the
actuator to go to the rest position and wait 10 seconds (Tout set), action successfully
performed within the 10-second interval.
B - Now the display changes to 5% - and the positioner will send a new command for the
actuator to go to position A (example: Open), action successfully accomplished within
the 10-second interval.
C - Then the display changes to 10% - and the positioner sends a new command for the
actuator to go to position B (example: Open), action successfully accomplished within
10 seconds.
D - The display changes to 15% - and the positioner sends a new command for the
actuator to go to position A (example: Open), and after the 10 seconds elapsed, internal
fault 1 occurs - because there was no movement.
E - Then the display changes to 20% - and the positioner sends a new command for the
actuator to go to position A (example: Open), and after the 10 seconds elapsed internal
fault 2 occurs - because there was no movement either.
F - The display now shows 25% - and the positioner sends a new command for the
actuator to go to position A (example: Open), and after the 10 seconds elapsed internal
fault 3 occurs - because there was no movement either.
G - The display now shows 30% - and the positioner sends a new command for the
actuator to go to position A (example: Open), and after the 10 seconds internal fault 4
occurs - because there was no movement either.
H - Tout Alert is activated, but note that it now took 70 seconds for the alert to be
generated, i.e. 7 times the Tout set in the menu, because the first 3 steps of the 1st
learning cycle were successful and the positioner only registered the problem in the 2nd
cycle and confirmed the lack of movement in the 3rd cycle.

This function allows to invert the indication of the percentage of open position to
percentage of close position, matching the display indication with the actual valve
position. If for any reason the position of the pneumatic connections are reversed in

were changed with the AIR TO function.
