System description
The position of the actuator is regulated according to the position set-point value. The position set-point value
isspeciedbyanexternalstandardsignal.
Pneumatically actuated piston actuators and rotary actuators can be used as an actuator. Single-acting
actuatorsareoeredincombinationwiththepositioner.
For single-acting actuators, only one chamber is aerated and deaerated in the actuator. The generated pressure
works against a spring. The piston moves until there is an equilibrium of forces between compressive force
and spring force.
