16 REMOTE MOUNT
16.1 Remote Mount Operation
The remote mount option can be used where excessive vibration or
environmental factors prevent the placement of a positioner directly
on the valve.
The remote mount unit consists of just the feedback mechanism
enclosed in a sturdy container. This assembly is mounted to the
valve/actuator assembly. The actuator tubing and feedback signals
are routed some distance to the positioner. Tubing is connected to
the positioner. The feedback signal wires are connected to a remote
mount board installed in the Logix 500+ positioner. See Figure 45:
Remote Mount Board.
