Series 3725
Type 3725 Electropneumatic Positioner
Application
Single-acting positioner for attachment to pneumatic linear
and rotary valves. Self-calibrating, automatic adaptation to
valve and actuator.
Reference variable
Travel
Opening angle
The positioner ensures a predetermined assignment of the
valve (controlled variable x) to the input signal (reference vari-
able w). It compares the input signal received from a control
system to the travel or rotational angle of the control valve
and issues a corresponding output signal pressure (output
variable y).
Special features
• Simple direct attachment to SAMSON Type 3277 Actuator
(120 to 700 cm², see Fig. 1)
• Attachment according to IEC 60534-6 (NAMUR)
