AVID® Model SmartCal

Smart positioners for both spring-return and double-acting actuators on rotary and linear valves.

Features And Benefits

  • Non-contact valve position measurement via Hall effect sensor. Eliminates the need for drive arms, linkages and increases overall resolution, accuracy and reliability.
  • 3-button interface and graphical LCD for auto-calibration and information display.
  • Negligible bleed for reduced air consumption.
  • Single button advanced auto-calibration.
  • Valve speed adjustable via user control.
  • Easy configuration of split range and reverse acting operation.
  • High-flow spool valve option for larger actuator/valves. Eliminates the need for volume boosters in some applications.
  • Standard 4-20 mA position feedback transmitter – HART version only.
  • Available with optional dry contact limit switches.
  • Highly visible position indicator for rotary applications.
  • Easily accommodates large stroke valves, such as knife gates.
  • Fully compatible with AMS™ software and DTM.
  • Rugged aluminum and stainless steel enclosures for maximum protection.
  • Engineered resin enclosure is robust yet lightweight with exceptional chemical, UV and impact resistance.
