T500 Electropneumatic Transducer (I/P, E/P)

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Type 500X Electropneumatic Transducer by ControlAir is designed to convert electrical signals into proportional pneumatic output pressure. It is suitable for applications requiring reliability and repeatability at a low cost, such as valve actuators and pneumatic systems in various industries including petrochemical, HVAC, and energy management.
Key Features:
  • Low cost and compact size.
  • Integral volume booster and low air consumption.
  • Field reversible with flexible zero and span adjustments.
  • Standard process inputs and split ranging capabilities.
  • Optional NEMA 4X (IP65) enclosure for outdoor use.
Specifications:
  • Available in low (up to 30 psig) and high output ranges (up to 120 psig).
  • Supply pressure sensitivity is less than ±0.1% of span per psig for low range and less than ±0.04% for high range.
  • Terminal based linearity and repeatability are within ±0.75% and ±0.5% of span, respectively.
  • Operating temperature range from -20°F to +140°F (-30°C to 60°C).
  • Port sizes: 1/4 NPT for pneumatic and 1/2 NPT for electric connections.
Principle of Operation: The transducer operates on a force balance principle where a coil suspended in a magnetic field moves axially with current flow, adjusting the nozzle and creating back pressure. This pressure acts as a pilot to an integral booster relay, adjusting output pressure proportionally to input signal changes.
Installation and Safety:
  • Can be mounted by pipe, panel, or bracket; field adjustment may be needed if position changes.
  • Approved as Intrinsically Safe for various classes and divisions when used with specified barriers.
  • Nonincendive approval for certain classes and divisions without barriers.
Ordering Information: Various models are available with different input and output ranges, impedance, and optional accessories such as DIN connectors, NEMA 4X enclosures, BSP porting, and pressure gauges.
Warranty: Products are warranted for 18 months against defects in materials and workmanship, with liability limited to repair, refund, or replacement.
