The vent assembly is located in the upper left side of the positioner.
The gaps around the assembly as noted by the arrows should be sealed
for long term storage.
A small desiccant package as shown can be included under the sealing
tape to insure proper protection.
All of the edges around the vend assembly should be sealed similar to
the picture below.
The sealing tape and desiccant should be removed when instrument air
is permanently applied to the positioner.
3.3 Pre-installation Inspection
If a valve control package has been stored for more than one
year, inspect one actuator by disassembling it per the appropriate
Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Instructions (IOM) prior to
valve installation. If O-rings are out-of-round, deteriorated, or both,
they must be replaced and the actuator rebuilt. All actuators must then
be disassembled and inspected. If the actuator O-rings are replaced,
complete the following steps:
1. Replace the pressure-balance plug O-rings.
2. Inspect the solenoid and positioner soft goods and replace as
necessary.
