Systemdescription
The position of the actuator is regulated according to the position set-point value. The nominal position value is
specified by an external standard signal.
Pneumatically actuated piston actuators and rotary actuators can be used as an actuator. Single-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.
