each part
1-1 System Configuration
This device is a smart valve positioner that can be connected to the 4–20 mA DC signal
lines of the controller output. It makes various adjustments using electricity, so the
relationship between input signals and control valve travel can be set to any desired
value. In addition, by connecting the device using four lines, the control valve travel is
transmitted to the host monitoring system as a 4–20 mA DC analog signal. (Only the
AVP701 model supports valve travel transmission.)
