2. Summary An AVP-350 SMART positioner is a two-wire (4 ... 20 mA) device of airpower europe GmbH. The positioner is a control accessory of the pneumatic actuator for valves. It is widely used in automatic control systems in the chemical industry, the energy industry, the metallurgy industry, the pulp and paper industry and many other sectors.
One solution to this problem is the integrated discharge circuit in the AVP-350, which protects the positioner from overvoltage. Note 1. The lightning protection function is offered as an option. 2. The grounding must be carried out in accordance with the relevant standards, before installing the device. airpower europe GmbH, Auf der Hohl 7, D-53547 Dattenberg, www.airpower-gmbh.com, sales@airpower-gmbh.com...
