C45 basic type intrinsically safe explosion-proof intelligent valve positioner

The TORLEO intelligent valve positioner with mechanical limit switch is used with pneumatic control valves (such as diaphragm control valves, ball valves, butterfly valves, etc.), and is widely used in the precise control of flow rate in the production processes of the petroleum, chemical, metallurgical, power, and papermaking industries.

The technical principle of the TORLEO intelligent valve positioner is to use an electrical balance (digital balance) principle to replace the traditional force balance principle, converting the electrical control command into a pneumatic positioning increment to achieve valve position control; using digital on/off signals to drive the pneumatic actuator; the valve position feedback signal is directly transmitted through a high-precision position sensor to realize the electro/pneumatic conversion function. The microprocessor in the intelligent valve positioner receives a 4-20mA setpoint 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 electrical control instruction (PWM digital method) to the nozzle flapper I/P control unit according to the magnitude and direction of the deviation, thereby adjusting the air flow rate entering the actuator chamber, that is, the control valve converts the control instruction into a pneumatic displacement increment. When the deviation between the actual valve position and the setpoint is large (high-speed zone), the positioner outputs a continuous signal; if the deviation is not large (low-speed zone), the positioner will output a pulsed signal; when the deviation is very small (adaptive or adjustable dead zone state), there is no positioner output, at this time, the actual valve position reaches the setpoint, and the mechanism reaches a balanced state, i.e., a certain set current corresponds to a certain valve position.

Problem |
Solution |
| 1 |
Current is given, but the LCD screen does not light up |
1) Check if the command line is reversed 2) Check if the current reaches the terminal of the board 3) Unplug the plug connected to the main board, if it still does not light up, the main board is broken, if the removed components are faulty |
| 2 |
There is a leak sound outside the positioner after air is passed through |
1) Check the joints 2) Check the air tube 3) Check the actuator |
| 3 |
There is a clear leak sound inside the positioner after air is passed through |
1) Check between the pressure gauge block and the positioner body, if so, tighten it, if it still leaks, reinstall the gasket 2) Check if the fixing screws of the IP are tightened, check the gasket under the IP 3) The IP may be leaking |
| 4 |
Exhaust is always accompanied when the actuator is inflated |
1) It is recommended to replaceIP |
| 5 |
Air is always supplied after air is passed through without instructionsOUT1Inflation |
1) Manually press and hold the increase and decrease keys repeatedly in manual mode 2) Change IP |
| 6 |
The valve does not move in manual mode and the pressure does not increase |
1) Check for external leaks 2) Try restoring factory settings 3) Change the positioner |
| 7 |
The displayed position does not change when the manual valve moves |
1) Check if the feedback rod is moving 2) Check if the potentiometer plug is inserted correctly 3) Check if the potentiometer rotates with the gear |
| 8 |
CALC_ERR |
1) Check if the valve is stuck 2) Check if the feedback rod is moving |
| 9 |
ZERO_ERR |
1) Determine the zero position of the positioner, is the horizontal deviation of the feedback rod too large at this time |
| 10 |
NO_SCALL |
1) Check if the up and down times are sufficient 2) Check if the feedback rod is loose |

Tuning inSD6does not move |
1) Check if the installation is reasonable 2) Check if the feedback rod angle is less than 60°, increase it if it is less than 60° 3) Retune |

Poor control effect |
First determine whether the upward control is poor or the downward control is poor, and modify the corresponding parameters to improve it. Generally, inflation corresponds to P5_1, P5_3, P5_5 Exhaust corresponds to P5_2, P5_4, P5_6 1) Overshoot: If it is inflation overshoot, first reduce P5_1, if it cannot be satisfied, then appropriately reduce P5_3, otherwise modify the other corresponding parameter group, modify about 50 each time 2) Undershoot: If it is inflation undershoot, then appropriately increase P5_3, otherwise modify the other corresponding parameter group 3) Small amplitude oscillation: Reduce P5_5 and P5_6 by one third each, if it doesn't work, reduce P5_3 and P5_4 4) If it still cannot be solved, try readjusting it |
