    Electro-Pneumatic Positioners Installation Steps <Figure 2: Using Fork Type Lever> <Figure 3: Using NAMUR Shaft> Using Brackets to Install U-EPR is provided with standard bracket. This bracket contains three parts, and brackets can be used for both fork type lever and NAMUR Shaft. <Figure 4: Assembly Method by stem height "H">...
  • Page 9 Electro-Pneumatic Positioners 2) Attach bracketed U-EPR to the actuator by using hexagon-headed and wrench bolts. Size of the bracket hole is 6mm. When tightening bolts, use spring washer or similar for firm attachment to the actuator, so U-EPR will not shake by vibration or any other impact.

    Electro-Pneumatic Positioners Double acting actuator For U-EPR series double acting type, when inputting current signal, supply pressure is out from OUT1. Please refer to <Figure 12> <Figure 13: Cam adjustment and piping connection> Power Connection - Explosion-Proof Type Connection - Connection Port (1) Connection port size is PF1/2 or G1/2.
  • Page 13 Electro-Pneumatic Positioners Connection - Cable Gland ① Use certified explosion proof products. ② End of cable must be crimp style terminal. Please refer to below table. <Figure 15> <Figure 15> ③ Insert the terminal connection into terminal box and lock completely. ④...

    Electro-Pneumatic Positioners Connection - Ground ① Open positioner's body cover. ② Locate poles connect them properly. <Figure 17> <Figure 17> Adjustment Adjustment - Zero Point ① Set supply signal at 4mA or 20mA and rotate adjuster clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust actuator's initial point.
  • Page 15: Adjustment - Auto/Manual Switch

    Electro-Pneumatic Positioners Adjustment - A/M Switch (Auto/Manual) ① A/M switch adjusts the valve operation to automatic or manual. ② When produced, U-EPR is set at "A(Automatic)". If user prefers the positioner's setting as "M(Manual)," the setting can be changed by turning the switch counter-clockwise.

    Electro-Pneumatic Positioners Adjustment - Orifice ① If the size of actuator is too small relative to the flow rate, positioner can have hunting. In order to avoid hunting, orifice can be used. There are three types of the orifice. Actuator Size Orifice Size Suffix Symbol 90 cm...
  • Page 17: Troubleshooting

    Electro-Pneumatic Positioners TROUBLESHOOTING ▶ Positioner does not respond to the input signal. (4) Check supply pressure level. The lever must be at least 1.4 kgf/cm spring-return type of actuator, the supply pressure level has to be larger than the spring's specification. (5) Check if input signal is properly supplied to the positioner.
  • Page 18 Electro-Pneumatic Positioners unstable, the regulator must be replaced. ▶ Hysteresis is too low. (1) In case of double acting actuator, check if seat adjustment has been properly performed. Please contact YTC for any further inquiries regarding the seat adjustment. (2) Backlash can occur when the feedback lever and lever spring are loosen. To avoid backlashing, please adjust the lever spring.
