YTC YT-2501 smart valve positioner with remote sensor

The YT-2501 smart valve positioner from YTC has a remote sensor that is fitted to the actuator with the valve positioner located away from excessive heat or vibration. Communication between the sensor and positioner is via a communications cable that can be ordered to suit various distances.

The sensor can also be located in confined areas, pits or difficult-to-access locations. With the positioner located in a suitably safe area all calibration, set-up and diagnostics can be achieved, thus removing the need for access permits or exposure to hazards or heights.

The valve positioner also has automatic calibration, an LCD, PID control and limit switches, as well as HART communication and fail-freeze and failsafe functions. Air consumption at steady state is near zero, which dramatically reduces operating costs compared to constant bleed valve positioners. The positioner can be adapted to suit both rotary and linear applications.
