MAINTENANCE
If the supply air is fouled, the positioner may not operate normally. Periodically
check the compressed air cleaning system and make sure that clean air is always
supplied. When disassembling the pilot valve, coat grease to the O-ring of the
sliding section. When the fixed orifice is clogged with carbon particles or others,
remove the pilot valve Auto/Manual changeover screw (built-in fixed aperture)
and clean it by inserting a 32 AWG wire into the aperture. If it must be replaced
with new one, stop the supply pressure and remove the stopper screw of the pilot
valve. Check the positioner once a year. Treatment at an early stage is especially
important if the positioner is used in severe environments, like coastal area. In
the unlikely event the 265ER Series Positioner should fail, the unit can be
returned to the factory for warranty repair if the warranty period has not expired.
Contact our customer service department for a RGA number and to setup the
return.
CAUTION AND HANDLING
Do not apply large vibration or impact to the positioner. The positioner must be
handled very carefully during transportation and operation. If the positioner is
used at temperatures outside of the specification, the sealing materials
deteriorate quickly and also the positioner may not operate normally. Do not
remove the terminal cover at a dangerous position during power conduction. Be
sure that the terminal cover and body cover are installed during the operation. If
you leave the positioner at the operation site for a long time without using it, put
the cover on it so that rain water does not enter the positioner. If the atmosphere
is of high temperature or high humidity, take measures to avoid condensation
inside. The condensation control measures must be taken thoroughly for export
shipment
