. Insert the connection bar attached on the actuator clamp into the slot of Series
1
85’s feedback lever. In order to reduce hysteresis, it should appear as shown:
7. Check that the Series 185’s feedback lever is level at 50% of valve stroke. If not,
m
ove bracket or feedback link until it is level. Product linearity becomes work if
S
eries 185 is installed without being level at 50% of valve stroke.
8. Check valve stroke. The numbers indicating stroke are carved in the Series 185’s
feedback lever. Set the connection bar attached on the actuator clamp to the
number on the feedback lever applicable to valve stroke as shown in the following
picture. To set the connection bar and the number, move the bracket attached on
Series 185 or connection bar from side to side.
NOTE: After installation, operate the valve from 0 to 100% stroke using an air filter
regulator on the actuator. When the stroke is both 0 and 100%, the feedback lever
should not reach to the lever stopper on the backside of the Series 185 unit. If the
feedback lever reaches the lever stopper, move attachment of Series 185 away
from the yoke center.
9. Once the Series 185 is installed according to the above procedures, tighten the
bolts and nuts of the bracket and feedback lever connection bar completely.
