Type 500 - Electropneumatic Transducer (I/P, E/P) - 1

Electropneumatic Transducer (I/P, E/P) Economical and reliable electrical conversion to pressure The ControlAir Type 500X converts a current or voltage input signal to a linearly proportional pneumatic output pressure. This versatile instrument is designed for control applications that require a high degree of reliability and repeatability at an economical cost. Optional NEMA 4X (IP65) version allows for splashdown and outdoor installation. Typically, these units are used for applications that require the operation of valve actuators, pneumatic valve positioners, damper and louver actuators, final control elements, relays, air cylinders, web tensioners, clutches, and brakes. Industries that utilize the Type 500X include Petrochemical, HVAC, Energy Management, Textile, Paper, Paper Converting, Food and Drug Features •Low Cost • Integral Volume Booster •Compact Size •Low Air Consumption • Field Reversible •Flexible Zero & Span Adjustments •Standard Process Inputs •Split Ranging

Type 500 - Electropneumatic Transducer (I/P, E/P) - 2

The Type 500X is available in two different versions. The lower range model is designed for standard process control applications which typically utilize a 3 to 15 psig output. The extended range unit provides up to 120 psig output for higher pressure industrial pneumatic and process control system requirements. Principle of Operation The Type 500X Transducer is a force balance device in which a coil is suspended in the field of a magnet by a flexure. Current flowing through the coil generates axial movement of the coil and flexure. The flexure moves towards the nozzle and creates back...
