    The P-Series FL also provides additional options of (0 to 200) mA Analog Input range and (0 to 5) V (dc) Analog Output range. Woodward also offers a ProAct version for speed control applications. Refer to manual 26246, ProAct ISC—Integrated Speed Control. The ProAct ISC is a microprocessor-based speed control incorporated into the actuator, creating a single integrated actuator/speed control.
