Robust Temposonics® technology means that there are no maintenance or field calibration costs for the sensor, even in harsh environments.
A variety of housing options (including IP69k stainless steel housings) enables installation in many types of applications, including inside cylinders or along a position axis. Analog and digital interfaces are available and the technology inherently produces an absolute position measurement without the need to rehome after a power cycle.
Position readings that deviate from the expected value can be used to detect possible valve malfunctions or preventive maintenance requirements.

The Rationale Behind Valve Characteristics
Back in the “early days,” we were taught that, to properly control flow, we should select a linear valve characteristic when the valve controls more than 25% of the piping system pressure drop at full flow.
