How flow control valve is working with pnuematic positioner
and I/P convreter from command is given from remote

Answer Posted / carl_ellis

A controller (the remote device) generates an electronic
4-20mA output signal which tells the valve what its position
should be.

The 4-20mA signal is an input to an I/P
(current-to-pneumatic) transducer, which creates a pneumatic
output signal proportional to the 4-20mA electronic signal
from the controller, probably a 3-15psi pneumatic signal.

The pneumatic control signal is an input to the pneumatic
positioner, which mechanically senses the valve's position.
The positioner drives the actuator with as much supply air
pressure as is necessary to drive the valve to position
demanded by the control signal.

We Have Two Field bus Pressure Transmitters of Different Sensor Range (I.E One is of Lower range and Another is of Higher Range).Is same Process Line. My Question is Can i provide Saturation Limit to my field Bus Transmitter as We can provide Saturation current limit to HART Instruments. As During Low Pressure Both Working OK ,But During High Pressure, transmitter with Lower sensor range Goes to Fault mode as Beyond its Sensor Limit it can Measure, So may I provide Saturation point Some where to Suppress This Fault during High Pressure.
