ABB Tzidc-110-V18346 Profibus PA Electro-Pneumatic Valve Positioner
Product Description
Abbb Tzidc-110-V18346 Profibus PA Electro-Pneumatic Valve Positioner
V18346| TZIDC Electro-Pneumatic Positioner | ABBb
The ABBb V18346 (model TZIDC - 110) is a digital intelligent positioner. It supports PROFIBUS PA communication. It combines microprocessing technology with built-in communication functions, breaking through the traditional positioner concept. It is suitable for both linear and rotary control valves and can be set up for single-acting and double-acting actuators with options for fail-safe (open or close) or fail-freeze (hold last position) modes.
The TZIDC110 positioner is an intelligent and electronically configurable instrument with communication capabilities, mounting to pneumatic actuators.
The TZIDC 110 stands out for a small and compact design, a modular construction, and an excellent cost performance ratio.
The functional heart of the TZIDC 110 positioner is its microprocessor controlled CPU where the operating system is running.
The position feedback signal is polled with a sampling rate of 20 ms and an A/D resolution of 16,000 steps.
This ensures a rapid and high precision signal processing for the input and the position feedback. The power for the CPU is derived from the bus

Advantages
Easy Commissioning: The auto stroke function automatically cycles the valve to find the best settings, and it can be easily configured by the four push buttons on the display, saving considerable time in field commissioning.
Reliable Operation: With high vibration resistance (up to 10G @ 81HZ) and protection class IP67, it can operate reliably in harsh environments.
Optimal Control: Fully automatic determination and adaptation of control parameters to the final control element ensure optimal control behavior.
Low Air Consumption: Reduces operating costs with low air consumption.
Safety Options: Offers options for fail-safe modes and is suitable for use in hazardous areas with approvals like FM/ and ATEX (intrinsic safety or explosion-proof), ensuring application safety

Applications
Industrial Process Control: Widely used in various industrial processes such as chemical, petrochemical, power generation, and manufacturing industries to precisely control the position of control valves, ensuring the stable operation of processes and the accuracy of process parameters.
Valve Systems: Suitable for both rotary valves (e.g., ball valves, butterfly valves) and linear valves, and can optimize the output characteristics of valves, such as improving the characteristics of ball valves/butterfly valves to achieve both shut-off and regulating functions.
Hazardous Areas: Can be used in hazardous areas where explosion protection or intrinsic safety is required, such as areas with flammable gases, vapors, or dust, due to its FM/ and ATEX approvals.
