The signal conditioning card converts the voltage signal temperature with an RTD and optional built-in signal into a 4-20mA signal, which can be used by the PMC-1. conditioning card, consideration must be given to the distance The wire connecting the RTD to the PMC-1 provides additional of the RTD from the PMC-1 controller.

PMC-1 and control valve is complete. On loss of power, the solenoid is no longer If the AC power to the PMC-1 should fail for any reason, both energized, and ports A and B are connected, allowing the internal solenoid valves will remain closed, and the control pressure on the actuator diaphragm to vent to atmosphere.
