4-20mA Position Transmitter Module and Stand Alone Potentiometer
Typically the 4-20mA Position Transmitter module and potentiometer options are already installed in TopWorx valve controller products. Use the
following installation directions only if you are replacing or upgrading an existing unit:
1) First remove the valve monitor enclosure from the valve/actuator (for removal instructions please refer the applicable TopWorx Valve Controller
Instruction, Operation and Maintenance Manual)
2) Install the 4-20mA position transmitter using the supplied or existing mounting bolts (See Illustration 2):
3) Remove the existing shaft and replace with the new shaft and position sensor kit assembly (See Illustration 3):
a. Remove circlip and washer from shaft on bottom of enclosure (outside)
b. pull shaft out gently from top side of enclosure
c. Install lube (from packet) on new shaft just below potentiometer and spread around oring seals on shaft.
