I — Characterizable pneumatic positioners AV characterizable pneumatic positioners are control devices that satisfy a wide range of applications. They provide fast, sensitive and accurate positioning of pneumatic single- or double-acting, linear or rotary motion actuators. A mechanical connection from the actuator to a position feedback cam in the positioner establishes actual position. Three characterized segments on one cam provide application flexibility by establishing various relationships between input signal...

AV 1 AN D AV 2 CH AR ACTER I Z ABLE PNE U MATIC POSITIONE RS | DS/AV 1 2-E N RE V. I — Operation AV positioners operate by balancing opposing forces. Figure 3 is an operational diagram of the positioner. A balance beam, hinged at one end and connected to the pilot valve at the other, is acted upon by two forces: • upward force of the signal diaphragm assembly • downward force from the range spring AV1 pneumatic positioner AV1 positioners receive an external pneumatic signal and converts it to a pneumatic output. This output produces the motive force that positions the power actuator. The AV1...

Performance series Performance series The potentiometric position transmitter uses a high durability plastic film potentiometer to indicate the position of the cam shaft. The resulting resistive value is a function of the shaft position. The resistive output can be used for additional control purposes. The 4 to 20 mA position transmitter uses a high durability plastic film potentiometer to indicate the cam shaft...
