A valve positioner is a device that adjusts the valve actuator's position based on a control signal.
Valve positioners compare a control signal to a valve actuator's position and move the actuator accordingly. They are used with both linear valves and rotary valves. Valve positioners are used when the 0.2 to 1 bar pressure in the diaphragm chamber is not able to cope with friction and high differential pressures.
The positioner is fitted to the yoke of the actuator and is linked to the spindle of the actuator by a feedback arm in order to monitor valve position. When a control signal differs from the valve actuator’s position, the valve positioner sends the necessary power to move the actuator until the correct position is reached. This uses a high air supply.
Positioners should be installed if the valve is intended for use in a control application.
Many oil & gas, petrochemical and process engineering plants are now operating with wide ranges of temperatures, pressures and flow rates. Harsh environments require valve and control products to function in severe service applications, requiring tougher and more reliable components with the ability to withstand extreme temperature or pressure fluctuations and maintain chemical and corrosion resistance.
Plant operators now look to control and monitoring solutions that can cross multiple applications. For valve positioner technology, developments in construction materials have needed to keep pace with these changing application requirements.
The valve position and control market is largely driven by changes in customer requirements, which then impact system design, enclosure construction or performance capability. In hazardous zones, for example, stainless steel has replaced aluminum in the construction of valve positioner enclosures—an innovation driven by customer requirements in the oil and gas industry.
