To change a Flowserve PMV D3 from a single acting positioner to a double acting positioner, the following steps must be followed:
1. Air Connections: Ensure that both air ports (C+ and C–) are connected. In single acting mode, only one port (typically C+) is used, while the other is plugged. For double acting mode, both ports must be connected to air supply.
2. Internal Configuration: The internal configuration must be modified to support double acting control. This typically involves modifying or replacing internal components such as spool valves or seals designed for single acting operation. Specific details are not provided in the context.
3. Function Setting: Verify that the positioner is set for the correct function (direct or reverse) as required by the actuator setup.
The context does not provide a complete step-by-step conversion procedure. For full details, refer to the technical section or contact the manufacturer.
