Features
Alarm -
Programmed to signal when system conditions exceed a desired
value or in the event of a system component failure. It can be configured
to be latching or non-latching, normally open or normally closed contact
with deadbands.
Absolute Alarm
- Activates when the process variable exceeds
alarm set-point. It can be either high and/or low acting.
Deviation Alarm
- Shifts as the set-point is changed. It can be
symmetrical or asymmetrical.
Fault Alarm
- Activates when the process variable is lost.
Set-Point Rate of Change
- Prevents accidental or sudden changes in
the programmed set-point. It is also invaluable when used on high differential
or surge sensitive applications where valve speed of operation must be
tightly controlled.
Process Variable Backup
- Can automatically recognize secondary
process variable or can be programmed to open or close valve or can
default to backup pilot system using alarm function.
DC Power Supply
- Provides source of power for signal transmitter.
Retransmission
- Transmit process variable or set-point values.
Offsets
- Adjusts the process variable and remote set point settings if
respective signals do not match.
Filter
- Stabilizes process variable signal when required.
Security System
- Prevents unauthorized changes.
Input Linearization
- For flow measurement across orifices, venturies, etc.
Digital Inputs
- Selects specific set-points. (optional)
NEMA 4X Enclosure
(optional)
Input Signals
The 131VC-1 Electronic Control System is designed to accept
industry standard 4-20 mA full scale signals for pressure, flow or
level control from customer supplied transmitter(s).
Flow Measurement
using a differential signal requires activating
the square root extractor to obtain direct flow readout.
Modulating Level Control
requires the use of an optional X117
Valve Position Transmitter in addition to a level transmitter.
Valve Position Control
requires an optional X117 Valve Position
Transmitter installed on the valve.
Other configurations are available on a special order basis, consult
the factory for details.
