type of action occured frequntly.. so what to do for solve
this problem. The possible cause is in volume booster or
positioner's relay.. positioner is double acting .. and
make siemens..sipart.The cv is double acting and mounted

Answer / aftab ahmed mazari

Check the following items:
1. Any loose connection or leakage of pneumatic signal.
Check all tube fittings with soap solution.
2.Check the gland packing should not be so tight. If feel
tight, get loose them a bit.
3. Check the pneumatic relays of Postioner. Get clean its
ports, nozzle, flapper etc.
4. Also check, that linkage, feed back mechanical link

Answer / avinash d. pagar

Also please check volume booster function separately with
out positioner and then set factory setting of positioner.
again calibrate positioner by auto calibration. mostly
hunting and over shooting issues cause by booster error.
