Last week, EBRO ARMATUREN presented ACHEMA2024 introduced a new positioner for the process industry. The new product offers a variety of functions that enable precise control in various applications.
The electropneumatic positioner makes industrial processes smart and reliable. Developed for daily use, the EP3 offers several advantages for users.
Modern technologies such as the Auto-Tune function ensure trouble-free commissioning. The controller can be controlled via traditional digital and analogue display signals or alternatively via IO-Link. An Eco Mode is also integrated, which is specifically designed for on-off applications. This mode leads to a significantly reduced consumption of compressed air, which improves energy efficiency and potentially reduces operating costs.
The advantages
- Exact positioning: With the EP3, users ensure that positioning always corresponds to the target value.
- Automatic calibration: The EP3 calibrates itself automatically. The self-calibrating function allows the positioner to adjust itself automatically. Users no longer need to worry about the optimal settings.
- Comprehensive diagnostics: The EP3 continuously monitors the health of the system and provides timely notification when something is wrong. This allows users to react immediately and minimize downtime.
The EP3 electropneumatic positioner is used to control single- and double-acting pneumatic actuators and is compatible with all EBRO valves for on/off and control applications.
