System Description SySTEm DESCriPTion 6.1. intended application area The positioner Type 024.16.720 is designed to be mounted on pneumatic actuators of process valves for the control of media. 6.2. function of the positioner and combination with valve types positioner Type 024.16.720 is an electropneumatic position controller for pneumatically actuated control valves with single-acting actuators.
Type 024.16.720 System Description The position of the actuator is regulated according to the position set-point value. The position set-point value is specified by an external standard signal. pneumatically actuated piston actuators and rotary actuators can be used as an actuator. Single-acting actuators are offered in combination with the positioner.
6.4. Structure of the positioner The positioner Type 024.16.720 consists of the micro-processor controlled electronics, the position measuring system and the control system. The device is designed using three-wire technology. The positioner is operated via 2 keys and a 4-pole DIp switch. The pneumatic control system for single-acting actuators consists of 2 solenoid valves.
Type 024.16.720 System Description 6.4.2. features • Models for single-acting valve actuators. • Position measuring system Contactless and therefore wear-free position measuring system. • Microprocessor-controlled electronics for signal processing, control and valve control. • Control module The device is controlled via 2 buttons and a 4-pole DIp switch. 2x 2-colored lEDs indicate different sta- tuses of the device.
