D Valve Style—Enter the valve style, rotary or
sliding-stem
D Actuator Style—Enter the actuator style, spring
and diaphragm, piston double-acting without spring,
piston single-acting with spring, or piston double-acting
with spring.
D Travel Sensor Motion—Select Clockwise, or
Counterclockwise. Travel Sensor Motion establishes
the proper travel sensor rotation. Determine the
rotation by viewing the end of the travel sensor shaft
from the perspective of the actuator.
For instruments with Relay A and C: If increasing
air pressure at output A causes the shaft to turn
clockwise, enter Clockwise. If it causes the shaft to
turn counterclockwise, enter Counterclockwise.
For instruments with Relay B: If increasing air
pressure at output B causes the shaft to turn
counterclockwise, enter Clockwise. If it causes the
shaft to turn clockwise, enter Counterclockwise.
D View/Edit Feedback Connection—Select
Rotary All, SStem - Roller or SStem - Standard. For
rotary valves, enter Rotary - All, SStem - Roller. For
sliding-stem valves, if the feedback linkage consists of
a connector arm, adjustment arm, and feedback arm
(similar to figure 4-7), enter SStem - Standard. If the
feedback linkage consists of a roller that follows a cam
(similar to figure 4-8), enter Rotary All, SStem - Roller.
