SMARTRONIC MA Installation and commissioning of the electropneumatic actuators must be carried out in accordance with instrumentation professional standards, and in particular: Piping: When commissioning a new or modified installation, the piping must be blown through before connecting the actuator in order to clear the circuit Warnings of any impurities, which cannot be avoided during construction (iron filings, scale, Teflon, welding flux, etc.).

SMARTRONIC MA III - Assembling the SMARTRONIC MA/Actuator assembly on the valve Use of an angle sensor with no mechanical stops makes it easier to assemble the positioner on the valve. It is essential to perform a complete opening/closing cycle up to the actuator mechanical stops so that the angle sensor takes up the correct position.
SMARTRONIC MA IV - 2 Mechanical adjustment of the operating time Mechanical adjustment of the operating time is carried out in the factory to obtain the best accuracy/speed compromise for the positioner. Mechanical modification of the operating times could prevent the positioner from operating correctly. After making these modifications, it is essential to perform autocalibration.

SMARTRONIC MA VII - Implementation of the SMARTRONIC MA Valve position visual indicator LCD screen Screen contrast adjustment Navigation buttons potentiometer Electric connection terminal block Please note: To achieve a stable control process and prevent premature wear of the valve/actuator/positioner assembly, we strongly recommend defining a control dead band at the PID regulator in order to limit the setpoint variations transmitted to the positioner.
SMARTRONIC MA VII - 2 - 2 Starting auto-calibration Autocalibration must be carried out in the following cases: - First time use of the positioner - Modification of the actuator mechanical stops - Modification of the mechanical adjustment of the operating time - Modification of an external parameter that could affect the device positioning performance The autocalibration procedure optimises the positioner adjustment by calculating the gains, sensitivity in dead band for the opening and closing operations.

SMARTRONIC MA VII - 5 - 2 Adjusting the setpoint according to the 4- 20 mA signal The operator can define two setpoint current values I1 (mA) and I2 (mA) which are associated with two position setpoints, respectively P1 and P2. The positioner will move linearly between these two points.
