Smart algorithms for precise valve positioning
By sensing the valve’s current position and controlling the solenoid to move the process valve to a desired position (e.g., 40%. 0% = closed, 100% = fully open), the system ensures accurate positioning.

Control valve
Integrated algorithms control the compressed air via the solenoid valve attached to the pneumatic actuator to ensure precise positioning. By controlling the supply and exhaust air, the valve is reliably moved to the desired position and held there securely.

Signal level in percent
Based on the signal from the control level indicating the degree to which the valve is to open in percent, the MVQ positioner enables extremely precise control, thus meeting the needs of even the most demanding applications.
