Installation Tutorial
Step	Procedure	Details
1	Unpack and inspect components	Ensure all parts (positioner, mounting hardware, gaskets) are present.
2	Mount the positioner on the valve	Align with actuator stem; secure using provided bolts.
3	Connect air supply	Attach 1/4" tubing to air supply port (3-7 bar, filtered/dry air).
4	Link feedback mechanism	Connect actuator stem to positioner’s feedback lever via coupling.
5	Wire electrical connections	Connect 4-20mA input signal to terminals + (A1) and – (A2).
