DESCRIPTION and INSTALLATION 1.1 Description 1.1.1 The NITRA NCP1 Series converts a current input signal to a linearly proportional pneumatic output pressure. This versatile instrument is designed for control applications that require a high degree of reliability and repeatability at an economical cost. NCP1 Series Page 2 1.2 Principle of Operation 1.2.1 The NITRA NCP1 Series is a force balance device in which a coil is suspended in the field of a magnet by a flexure. Current flowing through the coil generates axial movement of the coil and flexure. The flexure moves towards the nozzle and creates back pressure which acts as a pilot pressure to an integral booster relay. Input signal increases cause proportional output pressure increases. Zero and Span are calibrated by turning adjust screws on the front face of the unit. Adjustment of the zero screw repositions the nozzle relative to the flexure. The span adjustment is a potentiometer that controls the amount of current through the coil. 1.3 Mounting 1.3.1 Unit may be pipe, panel, or bracket mounted. Mounting may be at any angle, though may require field adjustment. High external vibration may cause output fluctuations. Mounting in a vibration-free area is recommended. 1.4 Pneumatic Connections 1.4.1 The 1/4” NPT supply and output ports are marked “IN” and “OUT” respectively on the base of the unit. Clean all pipe lines to remove contamination before installation. If thread sealer is required, use a tape type that is compatible with the media. Liquid or paste type thread sealer is not recommended. Clean dry instrument quality air must be used. To insure optimum performance supply pressure should be regulated. To provide stable inlet pressure and prevent contamination of the internal section of the transducer the use of an Instrument Air Filter Regulator is recommended. The two unmarked ports on the base of the unit are gauge ports but may be used as alternative output ports. Any unused ports must be plugged. WARNING he I/P transducer enclosure contains aluminum and is considered to constitute a potential risk of ignition by T impact or friction and must be taken into account during installation. 1.5 Electrical Connections 1.5.1 Electrical connections are made to the black and white leads extending out from the 1/2” NPT conduit fitting. Black = Positive 4-20 mA White = Negative 2. OPERATION 2.1 Calibration 2.1.1 Zero and Span should always be checked after mounting. If unit is calibrated in a vertical position and then mounted at an angle, readjustment of the zero is necessary. To calibrate use the following procedure: 1. Open protective covers to expose zero and span adjustment screws. 2. Connect the recommended air supply to the inlet of the transducer and an accurate pressure gauge to the outlet. 3. Connect the electrical input and set the input signal to 4mA. 4. Observe the output pressure. If necessary, adjust the zero screw until reaching minimum output pressure setting. Turn zero screw counter clockwise to increase pressure, clockwise to decrease pressure. NOTE I f unable to achieve output during calibration process, follow the steps outlined in 4.1.4 to clean the orifice. Then turn zero adjustment screw counter clockwise for up to 30 revolutions, until output pressure rises. 5. Increase electrical input signal to 20mA. NCP1 Series Page 3 6. Observe the output pressure. If necessary adjust the span screw until reaching maximum output pressure setting. NOTE or I/P (current) input models turn span screw counter clockwise to increase pressure, clockwise to decrease F pressure. 7. The Zero and Span adjustments are interactive. After adjusting the span it will be necessary to recheck the zero. Repeat steps 3-6 until both end points are at the required values. 2.2 Dimensional Drawings (Dimensions are inches [mm]) NCP1 Series Page 4 3. APPROVALS 3.1 Intrinsically Safe Operation 4. MAINTENANCE NOTE Under normal circumstances, no maintenance should be required. 4.1 Instrument Air Filtration 4.1.1 Failures due to instrument supply air contamination are not covered by warranty. 4.1.2 Use of oil and/or water saturated instrument air can cause erratic operation. 4.1.3 Poor quality instrument air can result in unit failure. It is recommended that a filter regulator be placed upstream of each unit where oil and/or water laded instrument air is suspected. 4.1.4 If clean, dry air is not used the orifice can become blocked. To clean, first turn off supply air, unscrew and remove orifice assembly (large silver screw head located above the out port). Then unplug orifice by using a wire that has a smaller diamter than 0.015 in. (0.38 mm). Use compressed air to blow out any loose particles inside the orifice assembly. Screw orifice assembly back into unit. NCP1 Series Page 5 5.
