4-4-3. Valve system
Configures the control valve control system.
Actuator action, valve action, and positioner action are set and modified here.
Actuator action
Select [Direct] or [Reverse]. If the feedback lever moves downward in response to increasing
air pressure to the actuator, set this to [Direct]; if the feedback lever moves upward, set this to
[Reverse]. (This will be set automatically if auto-setup is performed.)
The procedure for configuring actuator action is shown below.
step Procedure
1 Select [Device] >> [Setup] >> [Valve System] >> [Actuator Action].
2 Specify [Direct] or [Reverse] actuator action.
3 Send the modified setting to the device using the transmission button.
Valve action
Select [Direct] or [Reverse]. If the feedback lever moves downward when the control valve
moves in the direction from open to closed, set this to [Direct]; if the feedback lever moves
upward, set this to [Reverse].
The procedure for configuring valve action is shown below.
step Procedure
1 Select [Device] >> [Setup] >> [Valve System] >> [Valve Action].
2 Specify [Direct] or [Reverse] valve action.
3 Send the modified setting to the device using the transmission button.
Positioner action
Select [Direct] or [Reverse]. To make the device’s output air pressure go to zero when
the power supply is cut off, set this to [Direct]; to make the output air pressure go to the
maximum level, set this to [Reverse].
Note) Modifying the positioner action requires EPM (electro-pneumatic module)
reconfiguration. Reconfiguration should be performed by an Azbil Corp. service
representative.
The procedure for configuring positioner action is shown below.
step Procedure
1 Select [Device] >> [Setup] >> [Valve System] >> [Positioner Action].
2 Specify [Direct] or [Reverse] positioner action.
