High reliability and precision control is no longer tied to big size and high cost. The MPA series of electric valve actuators provides precise valve positioning in a compact, simple to install package. Simple on/off control or incremental (proportional) control is possible. TTL inputs for 2, 3 or 4-way ball valve control with position feedback. Serial (RS485) or analog (1 - 5V, 4 - 20mA) inputs for proportional control of needle valves. Field selectable for operation on 12/24 VAC/VDC.

TTL Discreet Positioning of Ball Valves

INPUT

Command to Actuator

Low Low

(4 way ball valves) Moves to or remains in position opposite to center position

High Low

(2, 3 or 4 way ball valves) Moves to or remains in left position

Low High

(2, 3 or 4 way ball valves) Moves to or remains in right position

High High

(2, 3 or 4 way ball valves) Moves to or remains in center position

 
OUTPUT

Feedback from Actuator

Low Low

Actuator is in the position as requested by input

High Low

Actuator is in motion to requested position

Low Low

Actuator has failed to reach requested position (25 second time-out)
