Die-cast aluminum structure intelligent valve positioner
TORLEO die-cast aluminum intelligent valve positioner adopts nozzle baffle technology and is used in conjunction with valves with safety requirements in the production process of petroleum, chemical, metallurgy, electric power, papermaking and other industries. It currently has basic, explosion-proof, explosion-proof, and Series products such as body type remote transmission type.
The technical principle of the TORLEO intelligent valve positioner is to use the principle of electric balance (digital balance) instead of the traditional force balance principle, and convert electric control commands into pneumatic positioning increments to realize valve position control; use digital open, stop, and close signals To drive the pneumatic actuator; the valve position feedback signal directly passes through the high-precision position sensor to realize the electric/pneumatic conversion function. The microprocessor in the intelligent valve positioner receives the 4-20mA set value signal and compares it with the actual valve position value fed back by the valve position sensor. If a deviation is detected, it immediately outputs an electronic control command according to the magnitude and direction of the deviation ( PWM digital method) to the I/P control unit of the nozzle baffle, and then adjust the air flow into the air chamber of the actuator, that is to say, the control valve converts the control command into a pneumatic displacement increment. When the actual valve position deviates greatly from the set value (high-speed zone), the positioner outputs a continuous signal; if the deviation is not large (low-speed zone), the positioner will output a pulse signal; when the deviation is small (adaptive or adjustable) Dead zone state), there is no positioner output. At this time, the actual valve position reaches the set value, and the mechanism reaches a balanced state, that is, a certain set current corresponds to a certain valve position

Wrap raw tape on the air circuit adapter, and screw the connector on the air source port IN and the exhaust port OUT1 of the positioner. Pay attention to the winding method of the raw tape (wind 3-5 times in the direction of the thread so that the raw tape will not be squeezed out when screwing) and connect it to the trachea.
7. Debugging sequence
Give 16mA instruction, set MAN-SENS mode |
↓
Ventilation source: adjust the air source to the required pressure (such as 0.4MPa), and check the air tightness of the joint |
↓
Set the actuator type: set P1-1 to LINE, select YES in P1_6SAVE to save |
↓
Move the valve up and down to see if the angle between the lever and the horizontal is about -30 degrees to +30 degrees |
↓
Check if the valve is stuck: long press the increase or decrease button in MAN-SENS mode to see if the valve runs smoothly |
↓
Set the upper and lower limit of the valve: this valve only needs to set the upper limit in P3_2 |

8. Handling of common problems
During the debugging process, possible problems and solutions are listed in chronological order as follows:
Serial number | Problem | Solution |
1 |
When the current is supplied, the LCD screen does not light up |
1) Check whether the command line is connected reversely 2) Check whether the current reaches the terminals of the board 3) Unplug the plug-in connected to the motherboard. If it still doesn’t light up, the motherboard will be broken. |
2 |
There is a sound of air leakage outside the positioner after ventilation |
1) Check the connectors 2) Check the trachea 3) Check the actuator |
3 |
There is obvious air leakage inside the positioner after ventilation |
1) Check between the pressure gauge block and the positioner body, if yes, tighten it, and if it leaks, reinstall the gasket 2) Check whether the fixing screws of the IP are tightened, check the washer under the IP 3) IP may leak |
4 |
Exhaust is always accompanied when the actuator is inflated | 1) It is recommended to change the IP |
5 |
Do not give instructions after ventilation but always inflate OUT1 |
1) In manual mode, press and hold repeatedly to increase and decrease 2) Change IP |
6 |
The valve does not move and the pressure does not come up during manual operation |
1) Check for air leakage from the outside 2) Try to restore factory settings 3) Change the positioner |
7 |
Manual valve movement display position remains unchanged |
1) Check whether the feedback lever is moving 2) Is the potentiometer plug-in properly inserted? 3) Whether the potentiometer rotates with the gear |
8 |
CALC_ERR |
1) Check whether the valve is stuck 2) Check whether the feedback lever is moving |
9 |
ZERO_ERR |
1) Determine the zero position of the positioner, at this time whether the horizontal deviation of the feedback lever is too large |
10 |
NO_SCALL |
1) Check whether the upstream time and downstream time are sufficient 2) Check whether the feedback lever is loose |
11 |
Tuning in SD6 does not move |
1) Check whether the installation is reasonable 2) Whether the included angle of the feedback lever is less than 60°, and if it is less than 60°, increase it 3) Re-tuning |
12 |
Poor control effect |
First judge whether the upstream control is not good or the downstream control is not good. Modify the corresponding parameters to improve it. Generally, the inflation corresponds to P5_1, P5_3, P5_5 and the exhaust corresponds to P5_2, P5_4, P5_6. 1) Overshoot: If it is overshoot for inflation, first reduce P5_1, if it cannot be satisfied, reduce P5_3 by an appropriate amount, otherwise, modify another set of corresponding parameters, modify about 50 each time 2) Under-adjustment: if it is under-adjustment of inflation, increase P5_3 appropriately, otherwise, modify another set of corresponding parameters 3) Small oscillation: reduce P5_5 and P5_6 by one third each, if not, reduce P5_3 and P5_4 4) If you still can't solve it, try setting again |
13 |
Control deviation |
1) Check the display accuracy of the command, if the deviation is large, enter the P8 menu to recalibrate |
The realization principle of the fault blocking function of the TORLEO intelligent valve positioner is: the positioner receives the valve position designation signal from the DCS control room, and completes the valve positioning control in 1-3 seconds. When the valve position enters the tolerance band (such as 0.3%), The positioner is used to drive the output current of the I/P electrical conversion module to 0. At this time, the I/P electrical conversion module is also working in the closed state, which is equivalent to closing the air inlet of the valve. Signal), the gas circuit is still closed, the gas in the valve cylinder has no leakage channel, and the valve is in the position before the power failure. There is no need to increase the power loss comparison and solenoid valve, and it can easily realize the function of two-off position retention. In particular, for the two-wire intelligent valve positioner, power failure or signal failure is a concept.
The way to realize the air-off and position-preservation is the same as the traditional method, which is realized by the air-lock valve. The operating pressure of the air lock valve can be adjusted (for example, set to 3KG). When the air is cut off, the air supply pressure will slowly drop. When it drops to 3KG, the air lock valve switch will act and connect the air intake of the valve cylinder. The channel is closed, so as to realize the air cut and keep in place.




Working principle of air lock valve
General air lock valves can be divided into two types: single-acting and double-acting. As shown in the figure below, the double-acting air-locking valve has two air inlets, two air outlets and one main air source interface.
Air lock valve is a device that uses the main air source as the signal pressure and cuts off the internal air circuit of the lock valve to prevent air flow when the signal pressure is lower than the set pressure of the air lock valve. The main purpose is to install on the control valve, when the main air source pressure of the factory drops below the set pressure due to power failure, etc., it will automatically close the air path from the positioner to the actuator to maintain the current valve position opening. The principle of action is that the signal pressure is greater than the set pressure, then the signal pressure pushes up the final inlet pressure of the upper diaphragm.
