Pneumatics

An I/P module with subsequent pneumatic amplifier is used to

control the pneumatic actuator. The well-proven I/P module

proportionally converts the permanent electrical setpoint signal

from the CPU into a pneumatic signal used to adjust a 3/3 way valve.

The air flow for pressurizing or depressurizing the actuator is

continuously adjusted. As a result, excellent control is

achieved. When reaching the setpoint, the 3/3-way valve is

closed in center position to minimize the air consumption.

Four different pneumatics versions are available: for single

acting or double-acting actuators, each with “fail-safe” or “fail freeze” function.

“Fail-safe” function

If the electrical supply power fails, the positioner output 1 is

depressurized, and the pneumatic actuator’s return spring

moves the valve to the defined safe position. In case of a

double-acting actuator the second output 2 is additionally pressurized.

“Fail-freeze” function

If the electrical supply power fails, the positioner output 1 (and

2. if applicable) is closed and the pneumatic actuator stops

(“freezes”) the valve in the current position. If the compressed

air supply power fails, the positioner depressurizes the actuator.

Brief description

The TZIDC-200 is an electronically configurable positioner with

communication capabilities designed for mounting to

pneumatic linear or part-turn actuators. It features a small and

compact design, a modular construction, and an excellent

cost-performance ratio.

Fully automatic determination of the control parameters and

adaptation to the final control element yield considerable time

savings and an optimal control behavior.

ABB general purpose drives

ABB general purpose drives are simple to

buy, install, configure and use, saving

considerable time. They are widely available

through ABB channel partners. The drives

have common user and process interfaces

with fieldbuses, common software tools for

sizing, commissioning, maintenance and

common spare parts.

Applications

ABB general purpose drives can be used in a

wide range of industries. Typical applications

include pump, fan and constant torque use,

such as conveyors. ABB general purpose drives

are ideal in those situations where there is

a need for simplicity to install, commission

and use and where customizing or special

product engineering is not required.

■ Reliability: Automatic load shar

ing of dual supplies reduces the

burden on an individual supply,

increasing the overall reliability and high MTBF.

■ Serviceability: Local status indi

cators, disconnects, and plug-in

cable assemblies facilitate on

line fault isolation and replacement.

■ Monitoring: Provides system DC

power outputs, field power out

■ Industrial Quality: Designed for

operating temperatures as high

as 70o C (inside cabinet) as well

as MIL-STD ratings for vibra

tions, IEC standards for EMI and

RFI, and UL ratings for flammability.

■ Price/Performance: Power factor

correction, electronic output

protection and lower costs are

inherent features.

The Modular Power System III (MPS III) is specifically

designed for powering Harmony rack modules and associ

ated field mounted devices. The MPS III can provide 5. +15.

and 24 VDC system power as well as 24. 48. and 125 VDC for

field powered devices. Special features of the MPS III

include: power factor correction, on-line power supply

replacement, power and cooling status monitoring, and

adaptability to various power input sources. The MPS III

assembly includes all the hardware necessary for AC input

power distribution to the individual power supplies, DC out

put distribution, power and fan monitoring, interconnecting

cables, and cabinet mounting hardware.

A family of preconfigured power supplies has been engi

neered to provided various combinations of voltage options

and associated power ratings. The MPS III is designed to sup

port 2N power redundancy. Multiple preconfigured power

supply configurations are available to facilitate matching the

most cost-effective solution with project power requirements.

Detailed specifications relating to these supplies are listed in

the MPS III data sheet.
