|
Construction :- |
Usually available in MS powder coated housing suitable for panel mounting with solenoid provided in separate weather proof housing & linear pot for field mounting. However optionally for field mounting with built in solenoid with die cased aluminium weather proof housing can be provided at extra cost. |
|
|
Operating System |
Positioner receives mainly three inputs such as : |
• 230 V a. c. 50 C/s, power supply |
• 4-20 MA-Input signal ( Control ) |
• Potentiomter - Output ( Feedback ) |
|
The microprocessor based instrument amplifier of the positioner receives variable input control signal & potentiometer output feedback signal. Microprocessor compares these values & depending upon vectorial difference decides & fires the corresponding relay which in turn triggers solenoid to admit & exhaust air from actuator. The system is based on modulation of signal & its time function. The microprocessor precisely calculates the time function & accurately positions. The movement of actuator standard instrument available with input control signal of 4-20 MA. However system can be modified for accepting other variable depending upon specific requirement. Similarly normal characteristic is linear, however optionally other characteristics such as equal percentage or square-root extraction is available |
• Simple installation & largely automatic commissioning.
• No effect of temperature or pressure variation.
• Maintenance free operation
• Calibration can be changed with display & key board. |
