Checking the Air Supply

Use this procedure to check the air supply.
1. Turn on the air supply.
2. Adjust the filter regulator.
Supply pressure must be a minimum of 10 psi greater than the spring range of the
actuator but may not exceed the rated actuator pressure. Refer to the valve or
actuator instruction manual.
3. Inspect the tubing connections between the filter-regulator and the positioner for
leaks.
4. Verify that the tubing is not bent or crushed.
5. Verify that all fittings are leak tight.
