To customers, Regarding the operation of the Samson electro-pneumatic positioner Thank you for purchasing this electro-pneumatic positioner manufactured by Samson. When shipped from the factory, the operating direction of the product is set to direct action (when the input signal increases, the operating pressure increases). If the operating direction of the control valve used with the positioner is direct action, set the positioner to reverse action (when the input signal increases, the operating pressure decreases).
If detailed instructions for special order specifications or options not contained in this manual are required, please contact TLV for full details. This instruction manual is intended for use with the model(s) listed on the front cover.
The three types of cautionary items above are very important for safety: be sure to observe all of them as they relate to installation, use, maintenance, and repair. Furthermore, TLV accepts no responsibility for any accidents or damage occurring as a result of failure to observe these precautions.
