How It Works: Intro
Tech Tip: D400 EX Push Buttons
The D400 EX (explosion proof) unit is completely contained in a rugged die-cast aluminum housing. The unit has a unique cover arrangement that allows for simple entry into the calibration/configuration chamber, while not exposing internal components and thus breaking the hazardous area classification. In order to reach the push button chamber, remove the two top screws on the face of …
Tech Tip: Linear Stroke Theory
Note: This tech tip is for when you are mounting a VAC rotary positioner on a linear valve. The V100 and V200 are by nature rotary positioners. To get a rotary positioner such as a V100 or V200 to operate on a linear valve the linear motion of the valve has to be converted to a rotary motion. This is …
