13. Fasten the top and bottom diaphragm
cases (A1, A2) together using the nuts
(A21) and bolts (A20). Observe tighten-
ing torques.
14. Unscrew the vent plug (A16) from the top
signal pressure connection and screw it
into the bottom connection (S).
The actuator springs, which now push
against the diaphragm plate from below,
cause the actuator stem to retract. The
signal pressure is connected to the top
connection (S) on the top diaphragm
case. As a result, the actuator stem ex-
tends opposing the spring force as the
signal pressure increases.
15. Afx a new nameplate with changed
symbol and new conguration ID to the
actuator.
b) Reversal of the direction of
action from stem retracts to
stem extends
1. Lift off the top diaphragm case (A1).
2. Pull the diaphragm plate assembly con-
sisting of the diaphragm plate (A5), dia-
phragm (A4) and actuator stem (A7) out
of the actuator.
3. Take the springs (A10) out of the bottom
diaphragm case (A2).
4. Unscrew and remove the collar nut
(A15), while holding the nut (A9) station-
ary.
