Calibration
Table B-1 presents calibration procedures for Type AV1 and
Type AV2 positioners in table format.
2. To adjust the zero, loosen the zero adjustment
setscrew (Fig. B-12) using a 3/32 inch Allen wrench.
1. Turn on supply air. Apply a 4-mA input signal to
the positioner. The actuator should be in the
closed position.
3. Turn the zero adjustment nut (clockwise moves
actuator toward minimum span) until the 0 radial
line on the cam intersects with the center of the cam
roller (Fig. B-4).
3. Turn the zero adjustment nut (clockwise moves
actuator toward minimum span) until the 0 radial
line on the cam intersects with the center of the cam
roller (Fig. B-4).
4. Tighten the zero adjustment setscrew. 4. Tighten the zero adjustment setscrew.
Span 1. Apply the following input signal pressures,
depending on the nomenclature type:
Types AV11 and AV15: 103.4 kPa (15.0 psig).
Actuator should move to its full open position.
Types AV12 and AV16: 186.2 kPa (27.0 psig).
Actuator should move to its full open position.
1. Apply a 20-mA signal to the positioner. The
actuator should be in its full open position.
2. To adjust the span, loosen the span adjustment
screw (Fig. B-12) using a 3/32inch Allen wrench.
2. To adjust the span, loosen the span adjustment
screw (Fig. B-12) using a 3/32 inch Allen wrench.
3. Slide span adjustment assembly (Fig. B-12) until
the actuator moves to align the 100% radial line
with the center of the cam roller (toward pilot
valve increases span).
