The smart valve positioners are digital valve controllers. The microprocessor based smart valve positioners with internal logic and advance diagnostics. To operate a valve these valve positioners are designed to convert a current signal to a pressure signal. These provide fast and accurate positioning of diaphragm or cylinder actuators. The smart valve positioner produces the …
The control valve positioner is a field device that is used to increase or decrease the pressure of instrument air load driving the valve actuator of the control valve. Until the stem of the control valve travels and reaches the balanced position as directed by the process controller. Generally for the linear sliding stem control, …
What is a pneumatic valve Positioner? The pneumatic valve positioner is an instrument used for positioning the control valve stem in accordance with the pneumatic signal of 3-15 PSI received from a controller or from a manual loading station. A valve positioner is used to increase or decrease the air pressure to drive the actuator. The pneumatic …
The control valve positioner is a critical component in the control valve loop. During the process control, the positioner helps to accurately position the valve. Due to failure in the calibration of the positioner and control valves, the positioner may direct the wrong valve positioning which in turn leads to a significant impact on process …

A valve positioner is a final control device used to position the valve actuators correctly at the control position. In applying a force to an actuator, there is no guarantee that the actuator is in the correct position. Positioners are used to feedback position information and ensure that the valve is in the correct position regardless …
