Consider a control valve action,the inlet air pressure is only 6 ksc but physically how it can be ..

Answer / ys

actally pressure=force/area.. here ctrl valve operates
against a very small area(the plug seat area).so the force
required for this also less. hence the ctrl valve acts
against high pressure

Answer / carl ellis

The reference to 6 ksc pressure means that the valve uses a
pneumatic actuator.

The ability of a pneumatic actuator to work against the line
pressure depends on the force that it can exert on the
valve's plug/cage/trim against the line pressure's force and
the bench setting of the spring.

A maximum of 6ksc of air inlet pressure can be exerted on
the total area of the actuator's diaphragm.

If the diaphragm area * air inlet pressure > plug area *
line pressure force + spring force, then the actuator will
move the valve plug. If not, the line pressure will move
the actuator.

A standard step in sizing a valve assembly with an actuator
is to check that the actuator can close against the maximum
line pressure and the spring setting at a given air supply
pressure. All vendors provide sizing charts for this purpose.

In RTU Panel we are having several Analogue & Digital Inputs /Outputs. We are recently facing some problems over Analog inputs , which are not updating properly (But Digital Input are updating normally) Can any one tell me from where the problem is creating , we have checked PLC CPU card, Analog Input card & we reconfigured ,But still the issue is there. Issue : 1. Sometimes Analog values are updating & sometimes not. 2. Analog values are not updating normally , showing some wrong Values 3. Total dead (0 value) Analog values are Level & flow measurement from the field instruments. (But in field the instruments are working normally & Displaying the values normally in local display unit) This problem we are facing in our Water Plant. If any one experienced this same problem or having any ideas related to our issue PLS send your valuable Answers/Replies...
