b. Power Positioner Features. The fully featured
model 8 x 14 power positioner includes the
following features:
1. The manual operator wheel can be used by
the operator to manually change the position
of the device being controlled. In the event
of a power loss, continued operation of
power positioner is possible through manual
operator wheel.
2. The transfer valve is a two position valve
that allows the operator to simultaneously
engage the air lock and manual operator, and
open the bypass valve. In the manual
position, air lock is engaged, manual
operator is engaged and bypass valve is
open. In automatic position, air lock is
disengaged, manual operator is disengaged
and bypass valve is closed.
(a) The air lock allows the operator to lock
the piston and output shaft assembly in
any position. This is done by moving
the transfer valve on top of the
positioner to the manual position.
When in the manual position, the
transfer valve C”ts off air pressure to
the air lock diaphragms, allowing the
fail-safe air lock to engage. When the
transfer valve is in the automatic
position, air pressure causes the air
lock diaphragms to disengage the air
lock.
