Parts list for Figure 1: INTRODUCTION Item Part General Beam Diaphragm piston The NP700 positioner is used for positioning double or single acting Shaft actuator. Cam plate Lever Operating principle 44.1 Pilot valve body 44.2 Pilot valve spool Operation is based on the force balance principle. One force is Changeover piece caused by the signal pressure (IN) and acts on the diaphragm (8), Coupling...
The positioner is equipped with both VDI/VDE 3845 (S1) mounting NP724 1.0-8.0 0.6 / 0.3 12 / 7 face and Metso Automation (S2) mounting face. Both mounting faces require different shafts. S1: H coupling; S2: C coupling. NP726 8.0-30.0 0.9 / 0.5 18 / 10.4...

DOUBLE-ACTING 1. Increasing input signal to open valve. Cam segments: B/0-100, A/0-50, A/50-100 NP727 / NE727 2. Increasing input signal to close valve. Cam segments: A/0-100, B/0-50, B/50-100 C1 R NOTE: Reverse piping for ST actuators. SINGLE-ACTING (SPRING TO CLOSE) 3.
Instrument air supply PRELIMINARY ACTIONS FOR THE ADJUSTMENT CAUTION: Do not exceed the permitted actuator supply air Set the valve’s open and closed limits with the actuator limiter screws; see pressure! the valve instruction manual. The changeover piece (46) and the cam (29) must be in correct positions.
Pilot valve Rising input signal closes valve Rising input signal opens valve max 2 % Removal of the pilot valve is unnecessary when the changeover POSITION % piece is turned around. For instructions of removal, see Section 8.2. Position of the cam plate Choose the side, A or B, and the rising segment of the cam plate from Fig.
