High performance positioners

2nd Quarter 2014 Other technologies

Approved by major petrochemical companies, the PSV Mitech conventional range of pneumatic and electro-pneumatic high-performance positioners have three take-off options, making them suitable for almost all applications. The electro-pneumatic units are suitable for a 4 – 20 mA signal, while the pneumatic versions are suited for a 20 – 100 kPa signal.

The positioners are available as both double and single acting types and are ideal for applications up to a 1000 kPa supply. Easy to set up and calibrate, they are supplied with or without gauges and feature two alternate supply ports.

Locally designed and manufactured, the positioners are corrosion resistant and have a robust construction. An intrinsically safe version with ATEX approval is available as an option.

The positioners are ideal for mounting to linear pneumatic actuators, linear power cylinders or rotary pneumatic actuators. They are field reversible and spares are readily available. A choice of cam characteristics and a NAMUR mounting arrangement are optional.
