Model HPP-5 Single-Acting Positioner Annual Maintenance Checklist

1� ________  Soap test all diaphragm mating surfaces to check for leaks�

2� ________   Replace rubber goods using Becker Model HPP-5 Single-Acting Positioner Repair Kit (Part # 30-9601) if             

necessary� 

3� ________   Confirm power gas supply pressure is correct� Refer to original GE invoice paperwork for    

 

 

proper power gas setting�

4� ________  Observe operation of gages and replace if defective�

5� ________   Check integrity of HPP-5 positioner seats� Varying input signal 1 psig should send one cylinder  

 

 

 

output gauge to full power gas� Refer to Procedure 7, page 5�

6� ________   Check response of HPP-5 positioner� Varying input signal 1/4 psig should produce cylinder  

output gauge differential equal to 40 percent of power gas� Refer to Procedures 6-8, page 5� 

7� ________  Check range and bias of HPP-5 positioner and adjust if necessary� Refer to page 6�

8� ________   Inspect and verify proper operation of all HPP-5 positioner accessories� Refer to technical  

manual included with each specific instrumentation accessory for further instruction�

NOTE: It is not necessary to replace any rubber goods in Becker instrumentation or instrumentation accessories on a regular basis� 

However, common practice suggests that replacement of rubber goods on a five-year cycle basis provides adequate preventative 

maintenance�

Parts Ordering

The following is provided to allow the ordering of replacement parts� Please specify the Becker instrument serial 

number when ordering parts (this can be found on the stainless steel tab attached to the pilot by the 7/16 hex 

head cap screws� If the instrument was supplied as a complete valve regulator package, the stainless tag attached 

to the actuator piston also can provide the serial number�
