1. Minimum or maximum span or any span in between may be positioned anywhere within the operating range. For example, if a 0 to 350 mbar (0 to 5 psig) sensing element is used and the
minimum span of 175 mbar (2.5 psig) is set, the process indication can be calibrated to a range of 340 mbar to 203 mbar (10 inch Hg to 6 inch Hg), 0 to 172 mbar (0 to 2.5 psig), 172 to 345
mbar (2.5 to 5 psig), 305 to 480 mbar (4.5 to 7 psig), or any value between minimum and maximum values of operating range.

1. Minimum or maximum span or any span in between may be positioned anywhere within the operating range. For example, if a 0 to 2 bar (0 to 30 psig) sensing element is used and the
minimum span of 1 bar (15 psig) is set, the process indication can be calibrated to a range of 1 to 0 bar (30 in. Hg to 0 psig), 0 to 1 bar (0 to 15 psig), 1 to 2 bar (15 to 30 psig), 2 to 3 bar
(27 to 42 psig) or any value between minimum and maximum values of operating range.
2. Travel stops should be used when the maximum or minimum process pressure will be 5% over or under the calibrated range. For example, a 0 to 2 bar (0 to 30 psig) sensing element is
calibrated for 0.7 to 2 bar (10 to 30 psig), the desired range. The minimum expected pressure is 0 psig and the maximum expected pressure is 2.8 bar (40 psig). Travel stops must be used to
prevent excessive overtravel and undertravel since the maximum allowable overpressure and underpressure is higher than 5% of the 1.4 bar (20 psig) span which is ±70 mbar (1 psig).
3. Bourdon tube without travel stops may be pressured to this value without permanent zero shift.
4. Bourdon tube with travel stops set may be pressured to this value without permanent zero shift.

Anti‐reset windup is available for all 4195KB and KC BELLOWS NOZZLE

difference between the proportional bellows pressure

Installation Figure 5. Typical Yoke Mounting

4195K gauge pressure controllers can be shipped
alone for a separate installation or for installation on a
control valve actuator. The controllers can also be 657
mounted on a pipe stand, on a wall, or in a panel. ACTUATOR
When a controller is mounted on an actuator and a
positioner is not used, the controller will usually be 4195K
opposite the supply regulator as shown in figure 5. If a CONTROLLER
positioner is used, the supply regulator can be
mounted on the actuator casing.
The controller must be installed so the vent points
down. Basic controller dimensions are shown in
figure 6. Dimensions for specific mounting
configurations are shown in figure 7.

Ordering Information
When ordering a 4195K controller, specify:

FILTER
Application REGULATOR

1. Description of the service, such as throttling or MOUNTING

on‐off PLATE

2. Pressure range, composition, and temperature W5661

of process fluid
3. Ambient temperature

Construction
Refer to the specifications and to the Construction
Features section. Carefully review each specification
and feature, indicating your choice whenever a
selection is to be made. Refer to table 1 for type
numbers; add an R to any type number if reverse
action is desired.
