Operational Check
Before beginning steady operation, perform an operational check by following the
steps outlined below:
1. Close the shut-off valves on the CV-COSR inlets and outlets. Check operation
without yet starting the flow of fluid (steam, water or air).
2. Check to make sure the designated air pressure is being supplied to the pneumatic
positioner. (Air pressure: 0.38 MPaG (54 psig))
NOTE: If the air supply pressure is incorrect, adjust it using an inlet air reducing valve.
NOTE: If an air reducing valve is attached, check the reading on its pressure gauge.
3. Turn on the power to the controller operation signal source, etc. (referred to
hereinafter as the controller).
4. Set the operation signal output from the controller to the CV-COSR to 0% (4 mA).
5. Check the CV-COSR valve travel and the actuator air supply pressure.
Valve Travel: Fully closed (valve travel 0%)
Air Pressure: 0 MPaG (check the pressure gauge on the pneumatic positioner for
the air pressure)
NOTE: If the air pressure is not 0 MPaG (0 psig), refer to the "Adjusting the Zero/
Span" section of this product Instruction Manual and adjust the zero.
6. Set the controller operation signal to 100% (20 mA).
7. Check the CV-COSR valve travel and the actuator air supply pressure.
Valve Travel: Fully open (valve travel 100%)
Air Pressure: Approximately 0.38 MPaG (54 psig) (check the pressure gauge on
the pneumatic positioner for the air pressure)
NOTE: If the valve travel differs widely from 100%, refer to the "Adjusting the
Zero/Span" section of this product Instruction Manual and re-adjust the
span and the zero.
NOTE: If the control valve does not move from the fully closed position, check to
see if the wires for the controller and control valve have any breaks, short-
circuits, or have their polarity reversed (+ and
– are reversed).
8. Set the controller operation signal to 50% (12 mA).
9. Make sure valve travel is smooth and without vibration.
NOTE: If the valve is vibrating vertically, it may be being caused by noise on the
signal wiring. Check to see if there is a possible source of noise nearby.
