without a positionar can a control valve operate? give the
difference of operating with positionar and without positionar?
Answer Posted / sam
There are applications where the positioner is actually
causing the process to run away, due to the valve reacting
being too fast, and the control will be much easier without
the positioner. You can do this by installing a I/P
converter, piped directly to the actuator.
In 99,99% of applications however, the positioner is
necessary to control the process since process changes is
normally very fast and smooth control will be impossible
without a positioner to speed up the reaction time of the
control valve and keeping the process on the desired control
set-point.
In these applications if you do not install a positioner you
will find that your process runs in a big sinuous wave form
and this will obviously cause a major chain reactions
through out the whole plant.
Good luck
