3.1 Safety
When installing a positioner, please ensure to read and follow safety instructions.
➢ Any input or supply pressures to valve, actuator, and / or to other related devices must be turned
off.
➢ Use bypass valve or other supportive equipment to avoid entire system “shut down”.
➢ Ensure there is no remaining pressure in the actuator.
➢ C340 has two drain ports to be used for internal condensation. Please use larger drain plug for
the condensation and block other remaining port with blind plug.
Drain Plug

3.3 Linear positioner Installation
Linear positioner should be installed on linear motion valves such as globe or gate type which uses
spring return type diaphragm or piston actuators.
Fig. 3-3: Installation example
Before proceeding with the installation, ensure following components are available.
➢ Positioner
➢ Feedback lever and lever spring
➢ M6 nut and spring washer (fastening feedback lever to a main shaft)
➢ Bracket, bolts and washers for positioner – not supplied with the positioner
➢ Connection bar – not supplied with the positioner
3.3.1 Safety
Proper bracket must be made in order to adapt the positioner on the actuator yoke.
Please consider following important points when a bracket is being designed.
➢ Positioner’s feedback lever must be vertical to the valve stem at 50 % of the valve stroke.
➢ The connection bar of the actuator clamp for the feedback lever should be installed in such a way
that the valve stroke length coincides with the corresponding figure in “mm” marked on the
feedback lever. Improper setting may cause poor linearity

Smart Positioner
3.3.2 Positioner Installation Steps
1) Assemble the positioner with the bracket made in previous step by fastening the bolts. The bolt
size is M8 x 1.25P.
Fig. 3-4: Attaching the positioner to bracket Fig. 3-5: Attaching the bracket to actuator yoke
2) Attach the positioner with the bracket to the actuator yoke

– DO NOT TIGHTEN THE BRACKET COMPLETELY.
3) Connect connection bar to the actuator clamp. The hole gap on the feedback lever is 6.5 mm so
the connection bar’s outer diameter should be less than or equal to 6 mm.
4) Connect an air-filter regulator to the actuator temporarily. Supply enough air pressure to the
actuator in order to position the valve stroke at 50 % of the total stroke.
Fig. 3-6 Positioning the valve at 50 % of the total stroke
Ver. 2.01 16
Smart Positioner
5) Insert the connection bar between the feedback lever and lever spring. The connection bar must
be located upward from the lever spring as shown the below left figure. If it is located downward
from the lever spring as shown the below right figure, the connection bar or the lever spring will be
worn out quickly because of excessive strong tension.
Fig. 3-7: Proper way to insert connection bar between feedback lever and lever spring
6) Check if feedback lever is vertical to the valve stem at 50 % of the valve stroke. If it is not vertical,
adjust the bracket or the connection bar to make vertical. Improper installation may cause poor
linearity.
Fig. 3-8: Feedback lever and valve stem
7) Check the valve stroke. The stroke numbers are engraved on the feedback lever of the positioner.
Position the connection bar at the number on the feedback lever which corresponds with the
desired valve stroke. To adjust, move the bracket, the connection bar or both.
Ver. 2.01 17

3.4.3 Rotary positioner Installation Steps
1) Please check the actuator’s stem height and adjust the brackets by referring to the above bracket
table.
2) Attached the brackets onto the actuator. It is recommended to use spring washer so the bolts will
not be loosen from vibration.
3) Set rotation position of the actuator stem at 0 %. For single acting actuator, it is easy to check 0 %
point by supplying no pressure to the actuator. For double acting actuator, check actuator stem’s
rotation direction – clockwise or counter-clockwise - by supplying pressure to the actuator.
4) (Only Fork lever type) Install the fork lever after setting actuator’s stem at 0 %. Check the actuator
stem’s rotation direction – clockwise or counter-clockwise.
Installation angle of the fork lever should be 45 ˚ to the longitudinal direction of the actuator.

5) (Only Fork lever type) After setting fork lever position, fasten lock nuts which are located on the
bottom of the fork lever. Ensure to set the gap between the top of upper bracket and the top of the
fork lever within 6 ~ 11 mm.
Fig. 3-17: Height to the bracket (fork lever type)
6) Attach the positioner to the bracket. <Only fork lever type: Fix the clamping pin (5 mm Dia.) into
the fork lever slot and insert center pin (2 mm Dia.) of the main shaft of the positioner into the hole
of center of the fork lever. The clamping pin will be locked to the fork lever spring.> Setting
alignment of center of main shaft of the positioner and center of the actuator’s stem is very
important. Poor alignment of the main shaft and the actuator’s stem decreases the positioner’s
durability due to unnecessary forces on the main shaft.

5 Connection – Power
5.1 Safety
➢ There are two conduit entries on the product. See “2.4 Product Code” for conduit entry threads.
➢ When installing in hazardous and explosive gas area, conduit tube or pressure-proof packing
union must be used. The compound charging box should be the flameproof type and must be
sealed completely.
➢ Before connecting terminal, ensure that the power is off completely. Do not open the cover when
the power is still alive.
➢ Please use ring terminal to protect against vibration or any other external impact.
➢ Positioner usually uses 4 ~ 20 mA DC. Minimum ampere of input signal of standard type positioner
is 3.6 mA and HART internal type positioner’s minimum ampere of input signal is 3.8 mA but
maximum ampere of input signal should be 24 mA or under.
➢ Compliance voltage of current source must be Min. 10 V and Max. 28 V. If the length of the supply
cable between the current source and the positioner is long, or if there is a filter or safety barrier,
then consider using a current source which could supply higher Compliance voltage.
➢ Positioner with PTM options must be supplied with 9 ~ 28 V DC separately. For L/S option
(transistor type), separate 24 V DC (50 mA) must be supplied.
➢ DO NOT connect Voltage source (9 ~ 28 V DC) to Input (4 ~ 20 mA DC) terminal (IN+, IN-)
as it will cause PCB failure.
➢ Positioner should be grounded.
➢ Please use twisted cable with conductor section are 1.25 mm2 and that is suitable for 600 V
(complying with the conductor table of NEC Article 310). The outer diameter of the cable should
be between 6.35 ~ 10 mm. Use shield wire to protect against electro-magnetic field and noise.
➢ Please do not install the cable near high noise equipment, such as high-capacity transformer or
motor.
➢ Please ensure that keep magnetic materials away from a product. It may cause malfunction. For
a magnetic screwdriver, it must be away more than 30cm from the positioner.

6 Adjustments
6.1 A/M switch adjustment
1) On the left hand bottom of positioner, there is A/M switch (Auto/Manual). If the switch is turned
clockwise (toward “A”) and fastened tightly, then the supply pressure will be transferred to actuator
through outport by positioner control. On the other hand, if the switch is turned counterclockwise
(toward “M”) and loosened, then the supply pressure will be directly supplied to the actuator
regardless of positioner control.
2) Make sure that the pressure level of the air supply is lower than the pressure rating of the actuator
before the switch is loosened.
3) After using “Manual” function, A/M switch should be returned to “Auto”.

Travel Zero [TVL ZERO] Manually adjust the zero point of the valve
Travel End [TVL ENd] Manually adjust the endpoint of the valve
Auto Calibration simplifies calibration without having to go through complex gain tuning. Once the
current input between 4 and 20 mA is applied, it takes approximately 2-3 minutes to complete the
automatic calibration, which may vary depending on the size of the actuator. There are two types of
Auto Calibrations as shown below so that you select and use them as required.

AUTO 1 O O X X X
AUTO 2 O O O O O
8.6.1 Acting Type (SINGLE / dOUBLE)
This is used to change the settings of the positioner to SINGLE or dOUBLE, depending on the actuator
type. The setting of the SINGLE and dOUBLE affects the automatic calibration, so it must be set
carefully considering the actuator type.
If the actual acting type of Actuator is different from the set value, it will cause a problem, so
make sure that the actual acting type matches the set value.

8.8.1 Dead Band (dEAdbANd)
Deadband indicates the size of the allowable deviation that is set near the target position. If the valve
has large packing friction, this value can be adjusted and set accordingly to prevent the limit cycle
caused by the friction. If the deadband is set to 0.5 %, its range is ± 0.5 % of the target.

8.8.2 Forward P parameter (KP UP) and reverse P parameter (KP dN)
The KP parameter is the proportional control constant to the calibration signal to reduce the error
between the target position and the current position, the KP UP is applied when the valve moves in the
direction of increasing output air pressure, and KP dN is applied when the valve moves in the direction
of venting output air pressure. A larger value of gains "KP UP" or "KP dN" moves the valve faster to
reach a target position, but the valve tends to oscillate if set to high. In contrast, smaller gains improve
stability, but make it slower to reach a target position.

8.8.3 Forward Integral time parameter (TI UP) and reverse Integral time parameter (TI dN)
TI parameters are an integral value that add the error correction signal to the existing calibration signal,
TI UP is applied when the valve moves in the direction of increasing the output air pressure, and TI dN
is applied when the valve moves in the direction of decreasing the output air pressure. A smaller TI
makes the valve faster to reach a target position and tends to cause oscillation.

8.8.4 Forward D parameter (Kd UP) and reverse D parameter (Kd dN)
The Kd parameter is a differential value that adds the correction signal due to the rate of error to the
existing calibration signal. Kd UP is applied when the valve moves in the direction of increasing output
air pressure, and Kd dN is applied when the valve moves in the direction of decreasing output air
pressure. A larger D value makes the valve hunting easier, and a smaller value can lead to poor linearity
or dynamic properties.

8.8.5 GAP Parameter (GAP)
The GAP parameter sets the control range at which Gap control begins. If the current position of the
valve falls within the setting range GAP (%) relative to the final target position (target position ± GAP),
Gap control operates along with PID Control. When the GAP control begins, the PID GAP parameters
(GAP P, GAP I and GAP D) interacted with the PID parameters (KP, KI and KD) are applied to valve
control.

8.9.8 Tight Shut Open (TSHUT OP)
It is used to ensure that the valve is fully opened with a large force. When the input signal SP is greater
than the value set in the TSHUT OP, all available force is applied to OUT 1 port to tightly open the
valve. If the input current of 4 mA is 0% of valve position and 20 mA is 100% of valve position, and the
Tight Shut Open value is set to any position less than 100 % (e.g. 95 %), then the valve stroke will be
100 % immediately when the input signal is over the set value (e.g. 95 %). A full supply pressure applied
to the actuator via the OUT1 port prevents leakage of the valve by shutting the valve tightly. However,
when the value is set to 100 %, Tight Shut Open function doesn’t work.

valve. If the input current of 4 mA is 0 % of valve position and 20 mA is 100 % of valve position, and
the Tight Shut Close value is set to any position larger than 0 % (e.g. 5 %), then the valve stroke will
be 0 % immediately when the input signal goes below the set value (e.g. 5 %). The air venting from
the actuator via the OUT1 port prevents leakage of the valve by shutting the valve tightly. However,
when the value is set to 0 %, Tight Shut Close function doesn’t work.

It is used to prevent the valve from moving too fast when the process to be controlled is too sensitive
to rapid changes in flow or pressure. The unit of setting is %/sec. If you want to move 100 % of the
stroke for about 5 seconds, set it to 20 [%/sec]. The rising and falling speed can be set independently,
