Introduction The P5 Valve Control System is a valve positioning system from PMV with a modular design concept. The base unit of the system is the pneumatic positioner, used in either single or double acting applications. P5 comes standard with built in dampers, a 5 mm high gain spool valve assembly, gauge ports and an O-ring sealed housing.
Appropriate precautions should be taken to protect units while in storage. Warehouse storage Stored in original PMV shipping containers, units should be stored in an environmentally controlled area, i.e. clean, cool (15-26°C, 60-80°F) and dry, out of direct sunlight or weather exposure.

P5/EP5 is supplied with all enclosure entry points sealed.The seal is only a storage seal, not to be used as seal when P5/EP5 is in operation. If Storage Seal is removed or damaged, make sure all open enclosure entry points are proper resealed before further shipping or storage.
Function The P5 operates on a force balance principal. Force is originated by the signal pressure transmitted through a diaphragm on to the balance arm. The opposing force is achieved through the feedback spring and is proportional to the position of the lower arm. The lower arm posi-...
Installation P5 mounts on to the actuator using either the ISO F05 holes 4 and a PMV ISO mounting kit or by using the optional mounting adaptor and screws 5 to mount P5 on to existing PMV mounting kits.
When using gases other than air for supply – Please contact PMV. On EP5 (P5 with I/P unit installed) I/P unit is supplied with air from port S. Port I is automaticly sealed off and protected. No connection shall be made to this port.
Front cover and indicator cover The front cover of P5 is secured to the pneumatic unit with four captured screws and sealed with an O-ring 1. The O-ring can be looped over notches 2 in the front cover to allow for drainage.
Always start calibration procedure by applying 0 % input signal, then adjusting zero. P5/EP5 is calibrated by turning thumb wheels 1 & 4. Arrows on arm 5 indicate turning direction of thumb wheels.
Caution: Do not operate the unit without filter and filterplug installed. Do not unscrew filterplug when the positioner is pressurized. Span and Zero for the I/P converter is factory set and can not be adjusted – 13 – Manual P5/EP5 23740/98.10...
A gauge indicating output signal from the I/P converter can be installed in port P. Make sure that the filter plug is tightened before supply air is switched on (Fig 4 on page 13). – 14 – Manual P5/EP5 23740/98.10...
4 on the balance arm 5 is properly fitted in the groove on the spool 6. Check again to insure smooth operation of the assembly. To maintain original factory performance specifications, use only spool valve assemblies supplied by PMV – 15 – Manual P5/EP5 23740/98.10...
Diaphragm If P5 is equipped with I/P unit (EP5), the I/P unit must be removed to access the diaphragm. Loosen screws 1 and remove the diaphragm cover 2. Loosen screw 3, diaphragm 4 and washers 5 can be removed. The diaphragm can after have being in use look wrinkled, this is fully normal due to the tension in it.
4 on the underside of the balance arm 5 is properly engaged into the groove 6 of the spool in the pilot valve. Tighten the two screws 3 holding the balance arm to the positioner. – 17 – Manual P5/EP5 23740/98.10...
Always check O-rings when performing any work on the positioner and replace bad O-rings. A thin layer of silicon grease applied on the NBR (Black) O-rings prolongs their life. On Q (red) O-rings, use a non silicon based grease. – 18 – Manual P5/EP5 23740/98.10...
1. Remove filter 3 and install a new into the filter plug . Check condition of O-ring 2 and filter compartment. If moisture is found, check upstream filters/oil-water separators. Moisture can cause I/P failure. Reinstall filter plug. – 19 – Manual P5/EP5 23740/98.10...
14. Feedback Unit See feedback module instructions for connections and calibration. The P5 or EP5, Valve Control System, can easily be equipped with a Feedback unit, model F5. This unit will mount directly on top of the Pneumatic positio- ner replacing the positioner front cover. The O-ring located on the bottom of the Feedback unit, F5, will provide the same sealing or draining capabilities as the front cover.
Trouble shooting Note: All PMV-positioners are serialized. Please note Signal change results in actuator running to end positions. — Check coupling between positioner and actuator. down, and provide the serial number when contacting — Check cam position and locking screw.
