Description of System
Pneumatically actuated piston actuators and rotary actuators can be used as a actuator. Both single-acting and double-acting
actuators are offered in combination with the positioner.
For single-acting actuators, only one chamber is aerated and deaerated during actuation. The generated pressure works against
a spring. The piston moves until there is an equilibrium of forces between compressive force and spring force.
For double-acting actuators the chambers on both sides of the piston are pressurised. In this case, one chamber is aerated when
the other one is deaerated and vice versa. In this design, no spring is installed in the actuator.
