Diagnostic Test Connectors (Optional)
Diagnostic test connectors are available from the factory, when the unit is ordered, or they can be installed on an
existing control valve assembly in the field. These connectors are especially useful for “quick” connections when using
the FlowScannert valve diagnostic system. The FlowScanner is a portable, microprocessor‐based diagnostic and
calibration system specifically designed for use with pneumatically‐operated control valves.
To support diagnostic testing of the control valve assembly, the connectors, piping, and other hardware can be
installed between the 3570 positioner and the actuator. A typical connector installation is shown in figure 3. For
connectors, refer to the FlowScanner Diagnostic Connection kit listing in the parts list.
The hardware used includes 3/4 NPT pipe nipple, pipe tee, and pipe bushings with a 1/8 NPT pipe bushing for the
connector. The connector consists of 1/8 NPT body and body protector (see figure 3).
1. Before assembling the pipe nipple, pipe tee, pipe bushings, actuator piping, and connector body, apply sealant to
all threads.
2. Position the pipe tee, connector body, and body protector for easy access when doing diagnostic testing.
