Figure 4-2. Cam Roller Alignment

Span Adjustment

Setting the span normally requires the alignment of the 100 percent

radial line of the cam with the center of the cam roller.

Use the following steps to adjust the span:

1. Depending on the nomenclature type, apply one of the following

input signals:

Types AV11/5

Type AV12/6

Type AV2

Apply 103.4 kPa (15.0 psig). The actuator should move to its

fully opened position.

Apply 186.2 kPa (27.0 psig). The actuator should move to its

fully opened position.

Apply 20 mA. The actuator should move to its fully opened

position.

2. To adjust the span, loosen the span adjustment screw (Fig.

3

4-1) using a ⁄ 32 -inch Allen wrench.

3. Slide the span adjustment assembly (Fig. 4-1) in the appropriate

direction until the actuator moves to align the 100% radial line

with the center of the cam roller (toward pilot valve increases span

of actuator).

4. Tighten the span adjustment screw.
