Figure 5: Measuring and operating ranges of the positioner
Operating range for linear actuators:
The operating range for linear actuators is ±45° symmetrically to
the longitudinal axis. The usable span within the operating range
is at least 25° (recommended figure 40°). The usable span does
not necessarily need to run symmetrically to the longitudinal
axis.
Operating range of rotary actuators:
The usable span is 90°, which must be entirely within the
measuring range, but does not necessarily need to run
symmetrically to the longitudinal axis.
Note
During installation make s
ure that the actuator travel or rotation
angle for position feedback is implemented correctly.
