Azbil Offers New High-Performance Smart Valve Positioner
The Smart Valve Positioner 700 Series detects abnormalities in shut-off, actuator spring and gland packing friction by measuring output pressure with a dedicated pressure sensor.
Azbil's Smart Valve Positioner 700 Series includes diagnostic functions for monitoring control valves for safety operations. The control valve diagnostic capability of the FOUNDATION fieldbus model, with the latest ITK 6.1 certification, ensures safe plant operations by providing early detection of control valve abnormalities, allowing optimum control valve maintenance scheduling. It fully complies with the FOUNDATION technical specifications.
The Smart Valve Positioner 700 Series detects abnormalities in shut-off, actuator spring and gland packing friction by measuring output pressure with a dedicated pressure sensor. It detects the Stick Slip movement of the control valve quantitatively using the Stick Slip diagnostic algorithm. (The Stick Slip is a valve's unstable state caused by excessive friction.)
