Installation
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage resulting from the sudden release of pressure: DAlways wear protective clothing, gloves, and eyewear when performing any installation operations. DPersonal injury or property damage may result from fire or explosion if natural gas is used as the supply medium and appropriate preventive measures are not taken. Preventive measures may include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following; remote venting of the unit, re-evaluating the hazardous area classification, ensuring adequate ventilation, and the removal of any ignition sources. For information on remote venting of this controller/ transmitter, refer to page 11. DIf installing into an existing application, also refer to the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section in this instruction manual. DCheck with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process media.
Standard Installation
The instruments are normally mounted vertical with the case/cover as shown in figure 1. If installing the instrument in any other position, be sure that the vent opening shown in figure 2 is facing downward.

Panel Mounting
Refer to figure 2. Cut a hole in the panel surface according to the dimensions shown in figure 2. Remove the cap screws (key 252), brackets (key 251), and vent assembly (key 28). Slide the controller or transmitter into the cutout and reattach the brackets. Tighten the cap screw located in the center of each bracket to draw the case snugly and evenly against the panel. Reinstall the vent unless a remote vent will be used.
Wall Mounting
Refer to figure 2. Drill four holes in the wall using the dimensions shown in figure 2. In the bracket (key 251) are 8.7 mm (0.3438 inch) diameter holes. Back out the cap screw located in the center of each bracket. (The screws are used for panel mounting but are not required for wall mounting.) If tubing runs through the wall, drill holes in the wall to accommodate the tubings. Figure 2 shows the pressure connection locations in the back of the case. Mount the controller to the bracket using the four cap screws (key 252) provided. Attach the bracket to the wall, using suitable screws or bolts.
Pipestand Mounting
Refer to figure 2. Use a hammer and punch to knock out the blanks in the two holes indicated in the back view of figure 2. Attach the spacer spools (key 228) and the mounting plate (key 213) to the controller with cap screws, lock washers, and nuts (keys 215, 221, and 216). Attach the controller to a 2-inch (nominal) pipe with pipe clamps (key 250).
Actuator Mounting
Refer to figure 3. Controllers specified for mounting on a control valve actuator are mounted at the factory. If the instrument is ordered separately for installation on a control valve actuator, mount the instrument according to the following instructions. Mounting parts for the different actuator types and sizes vary. Two typical actuator-mounting installations are shown in figure 3; see the parts list for parts required for the specific actuator type and size involved. Use a hammer and punch to knock out the blanks in the two holes indicated in the back view of figure 2. Attach the spacer spools (key 228) and the mounting plate (key 213) to the controller with machine screws, lock washers, and nuts (keys 215, 221, and 216). Attach the mounting bracket to the actuator yoke with cap screws (key 222) and, if needed, spacer spools. On some designs, the mounting bracket is attached to the actuator diaphragm casing rather than to the yoke.

Pressure Connections
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage resulting from the sudden release of pressure, do not install any system component where service conditions could exceed the limits given in this manual. Use pressure-relieving devices as required by government or accepted industry codes and good engineering practices.
All pressure connections on C1 instruments are 1/4 NPT internal. Use 6 mm (1/4-inch) or 10 mm (3/8-inch) pipe or tubing for supply and output piping. The pressure connection locations are shown in figure 2.
Supply Pressure
WARNING
Severe personal injury or property damage may occur from an uncontrolled process if the instrument supply medium is not clean, dry, oil-free and noncorrosive. While use and regular maintenance of a filter that removes particles larger than 40 micrometers in diameter will suffice in most applications, check with an Emerson Process Management field office and industry instrument supply medium quality standards for use with hazardous gas or if you are unsure about the proper amount or method of air filtration or filter maintenance.

April 2012
Instruction Manual
D103292X012
Supply pressure must be clean, dry air that meets the requirements of ISA Standard 7.0.01. A maximum 40 micrometer particle size in the air system is acceptable. Further filtration down to 5 micrometer particle size is recommended. Lubricant content is not to exceed 1 ppm weight (w/w) or volume (v/v) basis. Condensation in the air supply should be minimized. Alternatively, natural gas may be used as the supply pressure medium. Gas must be clean, dry, oil-free, and noncorrosive. H2S content should not exceed 20 ppm. Use a suitable supply pressure regulator to reduce the supply pressure source to the normal operating supply pressure shown in table 5. Connect supply pressure to the SUPPLY connection at the back of the case.
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage resulting from the sudden release of process pressure, use a high pressure regulator system when operating the controller or transmitter from a high pressure source.
If operating the controller or transmitter from a high pressure source [up to 138 bar (2000 psig)], use a high pressure regulator system, such as the Fisher 1367 High Pressure Instrument Supply System. For 1367 system installation, adjustment, and maintenance information, refer to the 1367 High-Pressure Instrument Supply System with Overpressure Protection instruction manual, D100343X012.
Process Pressure
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage resulting from the sudden release of pressure when using corrosive media, make sure the tubing and instrument components that contact the corrosive medium are of suitable noncorrosive material. Also refer to the Installation Warning at the beginning of this section.
The pressure connections to the controller depend upon the type of pressure sensing, gauge or differential. Gauge pressure controllers use either a Bourdon tube or bellows as the sensing element, as indicated in table 2. Differential pressure controllers use two bellows to sense differential pressure. For gauge pressure instruments: The control pressure block (key 10 in figure 22) has two connections. Process pressure can be connected either to the CONTROL connection on the back of the case, or to the connection on the left side of the case, shown in figure 2, depending on the instrument application. Plug the unused connection. For differential pressure instruments: Connect the low pressure line to the CONTROL connection on the side of the case and the high pressure line to the CONTROL connection on the back of the case as shown in figure 2. When installing process piping, follow accepted practices to ensure accurate transmission of the process pressure to the controller or transmitter. Install shutoff valves, vents, drains, or seal systems as needed in the process pressure lines. If the instrument is located such that the adjacent process pressure lines will be approximately horizontal, the lines should slope downward to the instrument for liquid-filled lines and upward to instruments for gas-filled lines. This will minimize the possibility of air becoming trapped in the sensor with liquid-filled lines or of condensation becoming trapped with gas-filled lines. The recommended slope is 83 mm per meter (1 inch per foot). If a controller is being used in conjunction with a control valve to control pipeline pressure, connect the process pressure line in a straight section of pipe approximately 10 pipe diameters from the valve but away from bends, elbows, and areas of abnormal fluid velocities. For pressure-reducing service, the process line must be connected downstream of the valve. For pressure-relief service, the process pressure line must be connected upstream of the control valve. Install a needle valve in the process pressure line to dampen pulsations.

Vent Assembly
WARNING
Personal injury or property damage could result from fire or explosion of accumulated gas, or from contact with hazardous gas, if a flammable or hazardous gas is used as the supply pressure medium. Because the instrument case and cover assembly do not form a gas-tight seal when the assembly is enclosed, a remote vent line, adequate ventilation, and necessary safety measures should be used to prevent the accumulation of flammable or hazardous gas. However, a remote vent pipe alone cannot be relied upon to remove all flammable and hazardous gas. Vent line piping should comply with local and regional codes, and should be be as short as possible with adequate inside diameter and few bends to reduce case pressure buildup.
CAUTION
When installing a remote vent pipe, take care not to overtighten the pipe in the vent connection. Excessive torque will damage the threads in the connection.
The vent assembly (key 28, figure 2) or the end of a remote vent pipe must be protected against the entrance of all foreign matter that could plug the vent. Use 13 mm (1/2-inch) pipe for the remote vent pipe, if one is required. Check the vent periodically to be certain it has not become plugged.
Controller Operation
Proportional-Only Controllers
This section describes the adjustments and procedures for calibration and startup. Adjustment locations are shown in figure 4 unless otherwise specified. All adjustments must be made with the cover open. When the adjustments and calibration procedures are complete, close and latch the cover. To better understand the adjustments and overall operation of the controller, refer to the Principle of Operation section in this manual for proportional-only controllers. Refer also to the schematic diagram in figure 13.
Adjustments Adjustment: Set Point

Adjust the pressure setting knob by turning the knob clockwise to increase the set point and counterclockwise to decrease the set point. Note that the dial setting and actual process pressure may vary significantly, especially with a wide proportional band setting.
Adjustment: Proportional Band

To adjust the proportional band, rotate the proportional band adjustment knob to the desired value. The proportional band adjustment determines the amount of change in controlled pressure required to cause the control valve to stroke fully. It may be adjusted from 2 to 100 percent for 0.2 to 1.0 bar (3 to 15 psig) or 4 to 100 percent for 0.4 to 2.0 bar (6 to 30 psig) of the nominal sensing element pressure rating.

Startup: Proportional-Only Controllers (General Tuning Guidelines)

Calibrate the controller prior to this procedure. 1. Be sure that the supply pressure regulator is delivering the proper supply pressure to the controller. 2. Rotate the pressure setting knob to the desired set point. 3. Set the proportional band adjustment to 100 percent for fast processes (example: liquid pressure or liquid flow). For slow processes (example: temperature), calculate the percentage from the equation below: For a slow process, determine the initial proportional band setting in percent from the following equation:
2 Allowable Overshoot Pressure Span 100% + P.B.
For example:
2 0.14 bar 2.1 bar 2 2 psig 30 psig 100% ^ 13%
100% ^ 13%
1.3 proportional band setting 4. Proportional Action Disturb the system by tapping the flapper lightly or change the set point a small amount and check for system cycling. If the system does not cycle then lower the proportional band (raising the gain) and disturb the system again. Continue this procedure until the system cycles. At that point, double the proportional band setting.
Note Proportional band adjustment affects the set point. Proportional-only controllers will show some offset from set point depending upon proportional band setting and process demand. After adjusting the proportional band, re-zero by carefully rotating the nozzle (key 54) until the steady-state process pressure equals the pressure setting dial reading.
This tuning procedure may be too conservative for some systems. The recommended proportional band setting should be checked for stability by introducing a disturbance and monitoring the process.

Adjustments Adjustment: Set Point

Adjust the pressure setting knob by turning the knob clockwise to increase the set point and counterclockwise to decrease the set point. Rotate the knob until the indicator points to the desired set point pressure value. The pressure setting dial will reflect the desired set point if the controller is accurately calibrated.

To adjust the proportional band, rotate the proportional band adjustment knob to the desired value. The proportional band adjustment determines the amount of change in controlled pressure required to cause the control valve to stroke fully. It may be adjusted from 3 to 100 percent for 0.2 to 1.0 bar (3 to 15 psig) or 6 to 100 percent for 0.4 to 2.0 bar (6 to 30 psig) of the nominal sensing element pressure rating.
Adjustment: Reset
To adjust reset action turn the knob clockwise to decrease the minutes per repeat. Turn the knob counterclockwise to increase the minutes per repeat. Increasing the minutes per repeat provides a slower reset action. The reset adjustment dial is calibrated in minutes per repeat. By definition, this is the time in minutes required for the reset action to produce an output change which is equal to the change produced by proportional control action. This is

Calibration: Anti-Reset Windup

Controllers with anti-reset windup have a differential relief valve assembly (figure 23). This relief valve is set at the factory to relieve at a 0.3 bar (5 psi) pressure difference between the reset bellows pressure and the proportional bellows pressure. The valve can be adjusted to relieve from 0.14 to 0.4 bar (2 to 7 psig). The relief valve can relieve on either rising controller output pressure or falling controller output pressure. If the arrow on the relief valve points toward the bottom of the controller case as shown in figure 23, the valve will relieve on falling output pressure. If the arrow points in the opposite direction, the valve will relieve on rising output pressure. The valve can be removed and reinstalled with the arrow pointing in the opposite direction to change the relief action.

Continue this procedure until the system cycles. When the system cycles multiply the reset time setting by a factor of three (3) and slow the reset down to the new value. The reset is now tuned. This tuning procedure may be too conservative for some systems. The recommended proportional band and reset setting should be checked for stability by introducing a disturbance and monitoring the process as previously described. For some applications, tighter control may be desirable.
Differential Gap Controllers

This section describes the adjustments and procedures for calibration and startup. The adjustment locations are shown in figure 4 unless otherwise specified. The output of each controller is checked at the factory before the instrument is shipped. To convert a differential gap controller to a proportional-only controller or vice versa, refer to the appropriate procedure in the Maintenance section. If the process pressure can be varied through all or part of the sensing element range or through the two desired switching points, use the process pressure for calibration. If not, provide a pressure source to simulate the process pressure range for calibration procedures.

Adjustments
Adjustment: Set Point
The position of the pressure setting knob determines the location of the differential gap within the range of the pressure sensing element. Move the pointer to the desired pressure where the output of the controller should switch from zero to full supply pressure with rising process pressure (direct-acting controllers) or with falling process pressure (reverse-acting controllers).

The proportional band adjustment shown in figure 4 determines the width of the differential gap. The width of the gap is the difference between the process pressures at which the controller output will switch from zero to full supply pressure, or from full supply pressure to zero. The relationship between the proportional band dial setting and the differential gap is shown in figure 10. Figure 10. Differential Gap Adjustment for Differential Gap Controllers

Calibration: Differential Gap Controllers

The output of each controller is checked at the factory before the unit is shipped. Before placing the controller in control of a process loop, check to verify that the controller is calibrated correctly for the application. The controller must be connected open loop (Open loop: The controller output pressure changes must be dead ended into a pressure gauge). 1. Temporarily convert the differential gap controller to proportional-only controller by disconnecting the proportional tubing (key 25, figure 16) from the mounting base. Reinstall the tubing into the other connection in the mounting base. Remove the proportional band assembly and invert it as shown in figure 16. Do not invert the reversing block (key 37, figure 16). 2. Temporarily invert the proportional band assembly (refer to figure 17): a. Turn the proportional band assembly (key 73) to 10. b. Unscrew the spring adjustor (key 65), removing the bias spring (key 70) and washers (key 62) with it.

c. Unclip the lock spring (key 72). Remove the indicator scale (key 69) and proportional band adjustment knob (key 73). d. Remove the gain adjustment bar (key 63). Flip it over so it attaches to the opposite side of the cantilever spring (key 8) as shown in figure 16 and screw it back down. e. Flip over the indicator scale (key 69); install it and the proportional band adjustment knob (key 73) as a unit. Snap in the lock spring (key 72). f. Tighten down the spring adjustor (key 65) with the bias spring (key 70) and washers (key 62) until it stops against the gain adjustment bar (key 63). g. Turn the proportional band adjustment knob to the 10 setting. If it cannot be turned to the 10 setting, loosen the spring adjustor (key 65). 3. Calibrate using the calibration procedure for proportional-only controllers found on page 12 of this manual. 4. When calibration is complete, return the tubing (key 25) and the proportional band assembly to their original locations and continue on with step 5 of this procedure.
Note After reinstalling the tubing (key 25) and proportional band assembly a slight offset of the output pressure will be noticed due to a combination of switching from the proportional bellows to the reset bellows and the repositioning of the cantilever spring. Performing step 6b below adjusts for this offset.
5. Refer to figure 10 to determine the proportional band dial setting required for the desired differential gap. For example, assume that a 0 to 100 psig sensing element is being used and the controller is to switch from zero to full supply pressure at a process pressure of 80 psig with rising process pressure and from full supply pressure to zero at 20 psig with falling pressure. (This is for a direct-acting controller.) The differential gap is:
5.5 bar * 1.3 bar 6.9 bar 100% + 60% 100% + 60%
80 psig * 20 psig 100 psig
From figure 10, the proportional band dial setting should be approximately 4.5; rotate the proportional band adjustment knob to 4.5. 6. Setting the process pressure
For a Direct-Acting Controller:

a. Rotate the pressure setting knob to the pressure at which the controller output is to switch to the upper switching point (zero to full supply pressure) with rising process pressure. In the above example, this pressure is 5.5 bar (80 psig). b. Increase pressure to the sensing element while monitoring the output pressure gauge. The controller output pressure should switch from zero to full supply pressure when the upper switching point is reached with rising input pressure.
Note If the upper switching point is not correct, adjust the nozzle to correct the error. Repeat step 6b until the input pressure and upper switching point are at the desired setting.
22
Instruction Manual
D103292X012

c. With falling input pressure, the output should switch from full supply pressure back to zero when the lower switching point is reached. Reverse-acting controllers produce the opposite response. 7. Vary the process pressure and observe the switching points. Widen or narrow the differential gap by rotating the proportional band adjustment knob, then repeat the above steps. If the output is within the limits stated, refer to the startup procedures in this section. If the output pressure cannot be adjusted within the limits stated, refer to the maintenance procedures.
Startup: Differential Gap Controllers

Calibrate the controller prior to this procedure. 1. Be sure that the supply pressure regulator is delivering the proper supply pressure to the controller. 2. Adjust the proportional band setting for the proper differential gap (see figure 10). 3. If the controller is used in conjunction with a control valve, slowly open the upstream and downstream manual shutoff valves, and close the bypass valves. 4. To change the differential gap, perform steps 1 through 5 of the calibration for differential gap controllers procedure.
Transmitter Operation
This section describes the adjustments and procedures for calibration and startup. Refer to figure 11 for the adjustment locations. All adjustments must be made with the cover open. When the adjustments and calibration procedures are complete, close and latch the cover. To better understand the adjustments and overall operation of the transmitter, refer to the Principle of Operation section in this manual for transmitters. Refer also to the schematic diagram in figure 13.
Adjustments
Adjustment: Zero
The pressure setting dial is marked ZERO ADJUSTMENT PRESSURE SETTING. Zero is in the center of the dial, and the pressure values increase to the right and left of the center as shown in figure 11. To set the zero, rotate the pointer around the pressure setting dial. Rotate the pointer clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to decrease the output depending on transmitter action and desired setting. For direct-acting transmitters, zero adjustment determines the process pressure at which the transmitter output signal will be at its lower range limit. The dial (key 6) graduations are approximate indications of the transmitter zero setting. When making adjustments, do not rely solely on the dial setting. Monitor the process pressure and output pressure to be sure the desired settings are attained.

SPAN ADJUSTMENT KNOB
Adjustment: Span
The span adjustment is graduated from 0 to 10. A setting of 10 represents a span setting of 100 percent of the process sensing element range. The transmitter achieves the highest accuracy when the span is 100 percent. The transmitter span adjustment shown in figure 11 is the same as the controller proportional band adjustment.
Calibration: Transmitters
The output of each transmitter is checked at the factory before the unit is shipped. The transmitter provides an output signal that is proportional to the pressure applied to the sensing element. The output pressure has no direct effect on the process pressure. The transmitter is calibrated at the factory and should not need additional adjustment. Use the following calibration procedures when the sensing element has been changed or other maintenance procedures have altered the calibration of the transmitter. The following procedures use a 0.2 to 1.0 bar (3 to 15 psig) output pressure range as an example. For other output pressure ranges [such as 0.4 to 2.0 bar (6 to 30 psig)] adjust the values to match the application.

Principle of Operation
The following sections describe the operation of a controller or transmitter using a Bourdon tube sensing element. The operation is the same for an instrument using a bellows sensing element (key 71, figure 25) except that movement of the beam is caused by expansion or contraction of the bellows or differential bellows.
Proportional-Only Controllers
As shown in figure 13, supply pressure enters the relay and bleeds through the fixed orifice before escaping through the nozzle. Nozzle pressure also registers on the large relay diaphragm, and loading pressure (controller output pressure) registers on the small relay diaphragm. Figure 13.

OUTPUT PRESSURE
A change in the process pressure moves the beam and flapper with respect to the nozzle by either expanding or contracting the Bourdon tube arc. An increasing process pressure with direct action (or decreasing pressure with reverse action) produces a nozzle-flapper restriction that increases the loading on the large relay diaphragm and opens the relay valve. Additional supply pressure flows through the relay chamber to increase the loading pressure on the control valve actuator. A decreasing process pressure with direct action (or increasing pressure with reverse action) produces a nozzle-flapper opening that bleeds off pressure on the large relay diaphragm and opens the relay valve to exhaust controller output pressure from the actuator.

Instruction Manual
D103292X012
This controller output pressure change feeds back to the proportional bellows, countering the pressure change in the nozzle and equalizes the relay diaphragm pressure differential. The relay valve maintains a new loading pressure according to the change in sensed pressure. If the proportional band adjustment is at its maximum setting (10), the cantilever spring in the proportional band assembly has a low spring rate, allowing more feedback motion to be transferred from the proportional bellows for a change in output pressure. As the effective length of the cantilever is reduced, its spring rate increases, causing less feedback motion from proportional bellows. Setting the cantilever spring to its maximum length results in a proportional band of 100%. The lower the proportional band adjustment, the shorter the effective length of the cantilever spring. The spring rate of the cantilever spring increases as its length shortens, allowing less motion to be transferred from the bellows to the beam and flapper for a given change in output pressure.
Proportional-Plus-Reset Controllers
Action of a proportional-plus-reset controller is similar to that of a proportional-only controller except that feedback from the controller output pressure is piped to a reset bellows as well as to the proportional bellows as shown at the right in figure 13. With an increasing controller output pressure, pressure in the reset bellows increases. Increases in reset bellows pressure moves the beam and flapper closer to the nozzle, starting another increase of pressure throughout the system. Pressure buildup continues until the controlled pressure is brought back to the set point. The reset valve is adjustable to vary the amount of delay in the reset action. Closing the reset valve increases the delay in reset action.
Controllers with Anti-Reset Windup

During a prolonged difference between set point and the controlled variable, such as encountered with intermittent control applications (e.g., batch temperature control or wide open monitors on pressure control), reset ramps the controller output to either zero or full supply pressure; this condition is reset windup. When the controlled variable crosses the set point, there will be a delay before the controller output responds to the change in controlled variable. Anti-reset windup minimizes this delay and permits returning the controlled variable to set point more quickly with minimal overshoot. As shown in figure 14 a proportional-plus-reset controller with anti-reset windup includes a differential relief valve. The valve consists of two pressure chambers separated by a spring-loaded diaphragm. For the controller shown in figure 14, proportional pressure registers rapidly on the spring side of the relief valve diaphragm as well as in the proportional bellows, and reset pressure registers on the opposite side of the relief valve diaphragm. As long as controlled pressure changes are slow enough for normal proportional and reset action, the relief valve spring will keep the relief valve diaphragm from opening. However, a large or rapid decrease in controller pressure will cause the relay to exhaust loading pressure from the control device rapidly, and also from the proportional system and spring side of the relief diaphragm. If this decrease on the spring side of the diaphragm is greater than the relief valve spring setting, the diaphragm will move off the relief valve orifice and permit the proportional pressure on the opposite side of the relief valve diaphragm to bleed rapidly into the reset bellows. The anti-reset windup action also can be reversed to relieve with an increasing proportional pressure.
Differential Gap Controllers

With a differential gap controller, feedback pressure does not counteract the change in flapper position as it does in a proportional-only controller. Instead, feedback pressure is piped to the bellows located on the side of the beam and flapper opposite the nozzle (the proportional bellows in figure 13). Then, as controller output pressure increases, feedback pressure moves the flapper closer to the nozzle to again increase controller output pressure. This process continues rapidly until the controller output pressure is at the upper range limit. The action of a differential gap controller is so rapid that output pressure changes from zero to maximum as soon as the switching point is reached.

D103292X012

The action is similar with falling output pressure. Lower feedback pressure lowers the bellows pressure, which moves the flapper away from the nozzle. This again reduces the output pressure and continues until the output pressure is zero. Figure 14. Schematic of Reverse-Acting Proportional-Plus-Reset Controller with Anti-Reset Windup

Transmitters
Action of a pneumatic transmitter is similar to that of a proportional-only controller. Since the output pressure of the transmitter has no effect on the process pressure, transmitter output pressure is a proportional measure of the process pressure. The proportional band adjustment determines the span of the transmitter, and the pressure setting mechanism determines the zero of the transmitter.

Maintenance
If the installation includes a Fisher 67 filter regulator, periodically open the drain on the filter regulator to drain accumulated moisture. Also, push the spring-out cleaning wire on the relay orifice. Check the opening of the vent assembly (key 28, figure 2) or the opening of the remote vent pipe, if one is used. If necessary, clean the openings. Parts are subject to normal wear and must be inspected and replaced as necessary. The frequency of inspection and parts replacement depends upon the severity of the service conditions.
WARNING
The following maintenance procedures require taking the controller out of service. To avoid personal injury and property damage caused by the release of pressure or process fluid, observe the following before starting maintenance: DAlways wear protective clothing, gloves, and eyewear. DProvide some temporary means of control for the process before taking the controller out of service. DProvide a means of containing the process fluid before removing any measurement devices from the process. DUse lock-out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in effect while you work on the equipment. DPersonal injury or property damage may result from fire or explosion if natural gas is used as the supply medium and appropriate preventative measures are not taken. Preventative measures may include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following; Remote venting of the unit, re-evaluating the hazardous area classification, ensuring adequate ventilation, and the removal of any ignition sources. For information on remote venting of this controller/ transmitter, refer to page 11. DCheck with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process media.
Replacing Gauges
Refer to figures 22 and 23 for key number locations unless otherwise directed. Three gauge configurations are available for C1 units. DOutput and supply pressure indications DOutput and process pressure indications DOutput, process, and supply pressure indications One gauge type (key 2) is used for both output and supply pressure indications when the gauges are installed inside the controller case. Key 2 features a 1/8-inch connecting stem that matches the threaded gauge boss extending from the relay base. In some cases, a process pressure gauge (key 4) covers the position of the internal supply pressure gauge. The supply pressure gauge has been removed and replaced with a pipe plug (key 15). The pressure control block (key 10) is different to accommodate a different control tubing assembly (key 23) with a pressure connection (key 14) for a process pressure gauge. If a supply pressure gauge is required, a gauge with a 1/4-inch connecting stem (key 3) must be mounted on the supply pressure regulator.
CAUTION
Before performing this procedure, be sure the replacement gauges are the correct range so they are not damaged by overpressure.

Note Key 2 is used as both a supply gauge and an output gauge on units without a process pressure gauge. A quantity of 2 is required for these units. On units with a process pressure indicator gauge (key 4), key 2 is used for the output gauge. A quantity of 1 is required for these units. Use key 3 for supply pressure indication when a process pressure gauge is installed. Key 3 installs on the supply pressure regulator.
1. Shut off the supply pressure and process lines to the controller or transmitter. 2. Remove the gauge to be replaced: DUnscrew the output or supply gauge (key 2) from the relay base. DUnscrew the process pressure gauge (key 4) from the process connection (key 14). DUnscrew the supply gauge (key 3) from the supply pressure regulator. 3. Coat the threads of the replacement gauge with a sealant. 4. Screw the replacement gauge into the relay base, process connection, or supply pressure regulator. 5. Check for leaks by applying the correct supply pressure with the nozzle capped to produce full output pressure.
Replacing Bourdon Tube

Refer to figure 24 for key number locations unless otherwise directed. 1. Shut off the supply pressure and process lines to the controller or transmitter. 2. Unscrew the machine screw (key 56) to disconnect the link (key 16) and bearing (key 31) from the beam (key 39). Be careful to avoid losing the bearing (key 31). Washer(s) (key 62) for the machine screw (key 56) are at times furnished for insertion at the beam (key 39) connection to ensure alignment of the connecting link (key 16). 3. Disconnect the control tubing (key 23, figure 23). Unscrew the two screws (key 55) and washers (key 45), and remove the Bourdon tube (key 5). 4. Unscrew the machine screw (key 56), and remove the link and bearing (keys 16 and 31) from the Bourdon tube. Be careful to avoid losing the bearing. 5. Attach the link and bearing to the replacement Bourdon tube. 6. Attach the Bourdon tube with two machine screws and washers (keys 55 and 45). 7. Connect the link and bearing to the beam (key 39). 8. After connecting the link to the beam, make sure that the link is parallel to the sensing element (key 5) and the beam (key 39) so that it does not bind against the sensing element of the beam. Figure 15 shows a properly aligned connecting link; the connecting link is not in contact with the Bourdon tube or or washers. When properly configured, the connecting link moves freely when touched. Washers (key 62) are used as shims to set parallelism. 9. Check to be sure that the beam is parallel with the bottom of the case and that the link (key 16) is in tension. If the beam is not parallel with the case, loosen the machine screws (key 55), reposition the Bourdon tube to get the beam parallel, and retighten the screws. 10. If a Bourdon tube with a different range was installed, remove the machine screw and washer (keys 61 and 60) and dial (key 6). Install a new dial having an adjustment range corresponding to the range of the Bourdon tube. If an optional process pressure gauge (key 4, figure 22) is being used, install a new gauge with the appropriate measurement capability.
