Serial Analog Module - Introduction
INTRODUCTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Serial Analog Module is configured for output
pressure bleed on power down. It has a normally
closed valve on the supply and a normally open
valve on the exhaust; the output will therefore vent
to atmosphere on power failure or power down.
Remote pressure sensing is standard on -01
Modules. This is achieved by connecting the
transducer sense pneumatic line to the input
side of external devices. Pressure inaccuracies
of devices such as pilot regulators are therefore
compensated by means of closed-loop feedback.
On both channels, pressure transducer output
is pinned-out through the electrical connector.
These signals may be used to drive a meter or to
provide computer-control feedback. In addition,
there is a digital output for each channel; the logic
level is low when the pressure controller is in a
stable state.
Figure 1: Serial Analog Module
The Serial Analog Module is a plug-in electropneumatic control board designed to fit standard
racks. The module has two independent pressure
control channels. Each channel adjusts the output
pressure proportionally to the voltage input.
On the front panel, LED's indicate when each
channel is stable. Front panel potentiometers
provide manual control of pressure output. A
status signal is provided giving a logic low output
when the panel controls are activated. This can
alert the controller when the module is in the local/
manual mode.
When one output is used to pilot a volume booster
(regulator), the volume booster must have a
non-bleed pilot, such as P/N: A11111.00. Use
of a volume booster with a bleed pilot will cause
fluctuating output pressure. When using the Serial Analog Module for a retro-fit application, refer
to the last page of Operation section for details.
Pneumatic connections are made through a plugin edge connector which eliminates the need for
pneumatic fittings. Electrical connections are
achieved with a DIN 41612-B connector.

CAUTION
> It is extremely important to prevent contamination of the valves and air passages
inside the module. Adhering to the specifications of 100 psig max. and 40 micron
filtration on the supply air is critical. Since
the valve can also be contaminated through
the output port, filtration is recommended
on output lines also.

CAUTION
> When removing and replacing electronic
components such as the control modules
in Ransburg systems, it is extremely important that the power to the rack is off. The
electronic components can be damaged if

CAUTION
> When removing and replacing electronic
components such as the control modules in
Ransburg systems, it is extremely important
that antistatic precautions be observed. Antistatic bags must be used to store boards
when not in use. Personnel working with
these cards must be free of any static charge
and must be grounded to prevent buildup
of charge. Equipment used for installation
or removal of the cards must be grounded
or be rated as anti-static type material. The
electronic components can be damaged if
subjected to stray static charges.

Serial Analog Module - Operation
OPERATION
The Serial Analog Module provides a pneumatic
pressure signal output which is proportional to the
voltage input. Each module contains two channels
of control. The voltage input can be provided by
various methods; by a front panel control, by an
external 1-10 VDC signal, an external 0-10 VDC,
or external 4-20 mA signal. The front panel control
has a detent at full CCW. In this detent position,
the output responds to the external voltage input.
When this control is rotated CW from this detent,
the output responds to the position of the front panel
control. A "Local" signal is provided to indicate
that the output is controlled by the front panel. A
"Stable" front panel indicator and signal output
indicate that the output pressure has reached the
level set by the input signal.
NOTE
> Before installing module, make sure the
o-rings (7554-03), located on the edge
connector of each pneumatic valve, are
in place and fully seated. Prior to installing, put a small amount of lubricant on the
surface of each o-ring to prevent shearing
when installing.

WARNING
> Do not use lubricants that contain silicone.

REPLACEMENT / UPGRADE OF
75118-01 ANALOG MODULE WITH
A11012-00 SERIAL ANALOG MODULE
Note: The Serial Analog Module part number A11012-00 will regulate the output pressure from 10 to 90 psi.
Operation outside of these limits is not recommended.
This procedure is only valid for systems using Watts brand pilot operated regulators (volume boosters) model
R119. It describes how to convert the pilot regulator to a non-bleed pilot, X71 model. The model number is
listed on the side label. See picture below:
TOP DIAPHRAGM
PART NUMBER LABEL IN ONE OF
THESE 2 LOCATIONS
Failure to follow the instructions below will result in fluctuating air pressure out of the Serial Analog module.
Due to a difference in regulators, the R119 pilot operated regulator either needs to be replaced with a nonbleed X71 model, or the top diaphragm must be replaced. A new pilot operated regulator can be ordered
with the X71 suffix or the non-bleed diaphragm for the installed pilot regulator can be obtained from Parker
Pneumatics / Watts FluidAir at (269) 629-5575. For the correct part number, reference the table below:
Existing Pilot Regulator
Port Size
Diaphragm to Convert to X71
Maximum Air Flow
R119-02J1/4"RK118-X20Y100 SCFM
R119-03J3/8"RK118-X20Y110 SCFM
R119-04J1/2"RK118-X20A 150 SCFM
Diaphragm replacement procedure
1. Remove the top screws and remove the old diaphragm. Replace with the new diaphragm and torque
screws to 25 +/- 5 in/lbs.
2.
Place Serial Analog Module switch SW4, switch 4 in the closed (opposite the open) position. This
sets the input and output voltages to 1-10 Vdc to duplicate the input voltage of the replaced Analog
module.
3.
Install the new Serial Analog Module and lock the quarter turn screws on the top and bottom of the
module.
4. Run a ghost program to test the unit. If fluctuations in the air pressure are observed, increase the pilot line length as noted below:
if using 5/32" pilot line, increase to 35’ long
if using ¼” pilot line, increase to 14’ long
Any additional fluctuations in air pressures may be caused by air leaks between the air control mother
board and the pilot operated regulator. Inspect and eliminate any leaks found.
