Install the positioner bracket on t he actuator. The fastening of the actuator br acket may follow the NAMUR/IEC 60534-6-1 standard or be in accordance w ith the user specified boring.
Consult the American National St andard "Quality Standard for Instrum ent Air" (ANSI/ISA S7.0.01 - 1996) for detailed information. The FY400 comes with input and output stainless steel air filters, but these filters do not exclude the preliminary instrument air treatment. Periodical f ilter cleaning is recommended at every 6 months or less, if the air quality is not good.
Page 16
FY400 Hart – Operation, Maintenance and Instructions Manual IMPORTANT If a failure occurs on the FY400, such as power loss (4-20 mA input signal), the output marked OUT1 goes to zero pressure and the output marked OUT2 goes to the air supply pressure value.
TERMINALS Figure 1.11 – Terminal Block The FY400 terminal block was developed to allow signal connections regardless their polarity. Test and Communication terminals allow, respectively, to measure the current in the 4 - 20 mA loop, without opening the circuit, and also to communicate with the Positioner via HART protocol.
FY400 Hart – Operation, Maintenance and Instructions Manual For convenience, the positioner has two ground terminals: one internal and one external, both located near the conduit inlet. Figure 1.11-A - Conduit Installation Diagram Use of twisted pair cables (22 AW G or greater) is recommended. F or environments with high EMI interference levels, the use of shielded cables should be observed.

The following issues are some recommendations based on field practices w hich will increase the FY400 performance and lifetime.
Section 1 - Installation The mentioned standard recommends to place the compressor intake in an environment free from process spills, contaminants, and to use adequate filters. Also, t he compressors must be of non- lubricated type to prevent the pres ent of lubrificants. When using lubricated compressors, the plant must have resources to remove the lubricant from the instrument air supplied.

Section 1 - Installation Remote Sensor Position The remote sensor potion is an accessory recommended for high temperature and extreme vibration applications. It prevents excessive wear of the equipment and, consequently , the reduction of its lifetime. For an appropriate installation of the sensor, c heck if the engraved arro w on the magnet matches the positioner arrow when the valve is at half way course.
As the positioner is non-ignition c apable under normal conditions, the statement “Seal not Required” could be applied for Explosion Proof Version. The standard plugs provided by Smar are certified according to the standards at FM, CSA and CEPEL. If the plug needs to be replaced, a certified plug must be used.
Use only Ex Hart communicator approved according to the type of protection Ex-i (IS) or Ex-n (NI). It is not recommended to remove the positioner cover when the power is ON. NOTE To obtain all the available certifications consult www.smar.com. 1.19...
OPERATIONAL Positioner Functional Description ® The FY400 Hart senses the actual stem valve position and takes the corrective action according to a fully user configurable strategy. The “non-contact” position sensor (Hall effect based) prevents the inadequacy of links and levers.

® HART Modem The function of this component is to make possible to exchange information between the Smar ® hand-held programmer and the positioner though the frequency modulation HART protocol digital communication. Thus, the positioner demodulates the digital information from the current line transmitted by the Smar hand-held programmer and, after processing it, modulates the result on the line again.
The digital display LCD is necessary to show the information and for operation in the local adjustment mode. During the normal operation, the FY400 stay in the monitoring mode and the display shows the valve position in percentage. During the configuration process, there is an option to show the setpoint on the display.
Section 3 TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS Functional Specifications Travel Linear Motion: 3 - 100 mm. Rotary Motion: 30° - 120° rotation angle. Input and Communication Protocol ® Two-wires, 4-20 mA, accordi ng to NAMUR NE43 specification, with super-imposed digital Hart Protocol. Power Supply 4 to 20 mA Loop-powered.

FY400 Hart – Operation, Maintenance and Instructions Manual STROKE LIMIT & REVERSALS Stroke Limit - Characterizes the situation which the valve (or actuator) reaches an upper or lower position, to the maximum or minimum limits, respectively, configured by the user, ge nerating an alarm.
Section 3 - Technical Characteristics Reversals - Characterizes the situation when the valve movement direction (opening - closing). Related parameters: Parameters Description Dead zone of the reversal. If the change in direction is larger than the value of the dead zone, the equipment will assume it Reversal Deadband as reversion.
FY400 Hart – Operation, Maintenance and Instructions Manual SUPPLY PRESSURE The pressure diagnostic checks if the p ower supply pressure of the positioner is between the limits configured by the user. This diagnostic have two limits, one lower and another upper limit that make possible to check if the pressure is good or generate alarms of too l ow or too high pressure in the positioner status (Supply Pressure Status).

For the user's safety the FY400 has two kinds of write protection in its memory, one hardware and the other a software mechanism. The hardware is selected by a H-H switch with priority over the software (See in the Section 4, Local Programming).
The configurator can be connected to the same pair of wires as the 4-20 mA signal, up t o 2 kilometers away from the positioner. Identification and Manufacturing Data The following information about the FY400 manufacturing and identification data is available: 8-character alphanumeric field for identification of the positioner. DESCRIPTION 16-character alphanumeric field for additional identification of the positioner.
ON or if the protection is enabled by software Besides the equipment configuration and operation services, the FY400 allows Auto Setup (Calibration) and Auto Tuning. See below the configuration options: CHARACTERIZATION FUNCTION This function can change valve flow characteristics.

"0" to "15", the addresses "1" to "15" being specific addresses to multidrop connection. When the FY400 is configured for multidrop, it means that the display is showing “MD” and the address is a value from "1" to "15". FY400 is factory-configured with address "0".
Equipment installed in hazardou s atmospheres must be inspected in compliance with the IEC6 0079-17 standard. As a guarantee of quality, the FY400 Valve Positioners are extensively tested and inspected before delivery to the end user. Nevertheless, they were designed to provide an easy periodic cleaning and repair, when necessary.
When the configurator is communicating with the positioner, the user is informed on any problem found, through the self-diagnosis. At t he FY400 positioner, the error messages always alternate with the information on the top li ne of t he configurator display. The table list s the error messages and more details on the corrective action.

Checking the Piezo Base Set Calibration A good FY400 performing depends on the Piezo Base calibration integrity. Due to its continuous use is expected a small variation on the piezo work voltage. If the piezo work voltage is close to 30 V or 70 V, this may be an indication the Piezo Base needs to be recalibrated soon.
